THE NEWEST RELEASES
by S. M. Ballard
Borrowed TimeKATE
by S. M. Ballard
(The first book published by Goose Flats Publishing - Blue Moon division)

NOW AVAILABLE!
Sexy, savvy, smart, in love with one man yet drawn to another, Hungarian born blue blood Mary Katherine Haroney, aka Kate Elder, lives life on the edge. And the edge in Tombstone , Arizona Territory, circa 1880, is a dangerous place indeed.

Kate's love, dentist/gambler, John Henry "Doc" Holliday, is a hairsbreadth from death. With his days numbered due to the consumption killing him, Doc seeks to make sense of a life too quickly ebbing away, his drinking and volatile behavior driving Kate into another man's arms. The other man is Holliday's despised nemesis, gunman and Cowboy, Johnny Ringo.

Yet who really stands in the way of Kate's life with Doc Holliday? Is it her paramour, Ringo, or is it perhaps Doc's closest friend, her fiercest rival for Holliday's devotion, Wyatt Earp?
