Why read it?
1 author picked A Lady in Defiance as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I loved the heroine’s grit! Boy howdy, no one’s going to get anything over on her. The story is both gritty and sweet. Real. Full of truth and hope and opposition. Her setting puts you right in the action and her characterizations leave you feeling like you know these people. This was the first book I read from Blanton, and I have since read a couple more.
From Davalynn's list on The best inspirational Western romance novels with rugged heroes and fiery heroines.
