Sammy Jo may be strong, fast and
tough, even in heels, but she gets into trouble when she fights some local
thugs to save a rich boy named Gregory.
Now bad guy McCloud is after her
– and he’s even more dangerous than her forbidden love for Gregory.
Fighter Girl was published in the
United Kingdom under the title GYPSY GIRL.

My
beautiful bridesmaid dress is soaked in blood. Bright crimson patterning the
white. The hem ragged and torn. The tulle skirt missing and the strapless
bodice ripped. My tiara is long gone. My hair stiffened with dried blood, not
mousse. My legs are crumpled beneath, unable to move. I’m like a ragdoll.
I’m lying
here in this circle of trees by the black water. They call it a beauty spot. I
can’t see any beauty today. Only death. The magpies warned us.
Gregory
is beside me, his sun-streaked, fair hair red with blood, his face white as a
ghost. Shocked and injured again. It’s my fault. I want to hug him, hold him
close, tell him I didn’t mean to let this happen to him. But I can’t move.
Anyway, he probably hates me.
Is it
over? Don’t ask me.
In the
distance, I can hear emergency sirens. Has everyone found out? Has my daddy?
His name is Samson Smith. He comes from a long line of champion fighters.
My name
is Sammy-Jo Smith. I’m the only girl to have inherited the Smith fighting
skills. Sometimes I love it, but now I hate it. I’m too fast, too strong, even
in my Jimmy Choo heels. It’s brought me here, to this place of death.
It began
three days ago with a fight. Seems that for me everything always begins with a
fight …
