She tried not to let the grin affect her, but it did. Good grief the man was absolutely irresistible when he smiled. Awareness shot through her like a bolt of lightning and she silently scolded herself for reacting to a man who obviously wasn't a bit interested in her. Besides, hadn't she learned...
He gently placed her across the seat. She barely stirred. "Tell your mom I'm taking her home and putting her to bed. She'll be all right thanks to the two of you letting me know, but, for her, the night is over." He smiled at the boys as they placed her clothes on the floorboard of the truck and ...
Rusty and Hannah were due in anytime. Clint and Abby would be there for lunch, it was going to be a busy day at the 4 Bar None. Jake had gone to the barn. He took a cup of coffee and set it on the stall gate top, then picked up a curry comb and turned to his horse. The smell of bacon and fresh co...
Chayton was close by. The aroma of fried bacon filled the house. The baby was drinking a bottle and crawling about the floor. "Smells terrific, but I hope you didn't go to this trouble just for us?"

Sweat trickled down the sides of his face and he absentmindedly wiped it with the back of one arm, then removed his straw hat, and slipped it further back on his head. Even the sparse shade of the mesquite tree wasn't enough to stop the heat from penetrating. Squinting, he scanned the small grazi...
After all, she couldn't just have sex with Hank. She wanted much more from him than that. And yet, if Caleb hadn't walked in, would she have let Hank make love to her. Her mind said no, but her heart and body said yes. Good grief, she had to get a grip! &...
A light rain pelted the windshield. It seemed as though the rain would never end. She felt sad, and yet suddenly free. And on top of that she felt like a real woman again. Strange how not having sex with a man could do such a thing. She wasn't going to worry about breaking up with Greg. It was ov...
