    THE GOOD TIME GIRLS

    On Sale April 4, 2023

    A novel of wild women, the bonds of friendship, a harrowing road trip, and help found in the least likely places.

     

    In 1905 Kansas, ex-dancehall girl and outlaw Ruby Calhoun has settled into a (mostly) quiet and (mostly) lawful life. But out of the blue her past comes hustling into town when her ex-friend and ex-dancehall partner, Pip, shows up with a grim message and dangerous mission: Cullen Wilder, an old enemy with a long memory, wants them dead and the only way to survive is to kill him first.

     

    With Cullen’s henchman hot on their heels, Ruby and Pip hightail into the hinterlands of Kansas to save another friend from Cullen’s vengeance. Unprepared for the journey, their trip is filled with mishaps and mayhem, blunders and bounders, con artists and the circling noose of the law.

     

    Through it all, Ruby is tormented by the memories of her life years ago in Arizona Territory, when the upstairs girls at the Paradise Saloon and Dancehall kept her safe, and the dreadful day when it all went wrong.

     

    Will Ruby have the guts to face her turbulent past, or will she cut and run like a coward one more time?

     

    Available April 4th in ebook, paperback and hardback.

    But they are outlaws themselves, wanted in multiple counties across Kansas. They'll need all their wiles to take the film money to the bank and evade John Ward, the sheriff who has followed them from the Plains to the California coast.
