The Amazon Bestseller! Now, with bonus material! HIS TOWN. HER GOD. LET THE BATTLE BEGIN. Charles McIntyre owns everything and everyone in the Hell-on-wheels mining town of Defiance. When three good Christian sisters from his beloved South show up, stranded, alone, and offering to open a “nice” hotel, he is intrigued enough to let them stay…especially since he sees feisty middle sister Naomi as a possible conquest. But Naomi, angry with God for widowing her, wants no part of Defiance or the saloon-owning, prostitute-keeping Mr. McIntyre. It would seem however, that God has gone to elaborate lengths to bring them together. The question is, “Why?” Does God really have a plan for each and every life? Written with gritty, but not gratuitous, realism uncharacteristic of historical Christian fiction, A Lady in Defiance gives a nod to both Pride and Prejudice and Redeeming Love. The story, based on true events, is an “ensemble” piece that deftly weaves together the relationships of the three sisters and the rowdy residents of Defiance.

Summary
\" If I speak in the tongues of man and of angels, but have not love I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.\" Why in the world God would lead three God¬fearing women to this Godforsaken town, was a mystery to Naomi Miller. Defiance, Colorado with its lawlessness, debauchery, and endless improprieties was hardly suited for two lovely widows and a young compromised sister, wasn't it? Yet, here they were. Utterly grief¬stricken, Naomi makes an impulsive business agreement with the man who appears to own Defiance, Mr. Charles McIntyre. After all, how hard could it be to open a respectable inn amidst noisy brothels and frequented saloons? Charles McIntyre has never met a woman like Naomi. He cannot decide whether she will be his biggest asset, his worst nightmare or a combination of the two. After all, their personalities clash like fire and ice, but of one thing he is certain; things are going to change with this lady in Defiance. This deeply inspirational story of unconditional love in the middle of a wild western mining town is a satisfying beginning to an ongoing story.
Drug & Alcohol: There is obvious alcohol use implied in the setting; a primitive western mining town.
