Synopsis
When Wyatt rushes into Bec Dempsey’s small-town cooperative offering to buy the last barrel of her precious Zoria, she’s thrown for a loop. She’s been burned by city-slickers before, and she’ll be damned if she’ll let it happen again. But when things start heating up between them, Bec decides to make Wyatt a counteroffer. One she hopes he won’t refuse.
Excerpt
Bec washed the dishes methodically, piling them in the pan of
rinse water so that he could put them in the drainer. The process moved along
briskly as long as he didn’t pay any attention to the tension between them that
was thick enough to cut with a knife. The whole evening was rapidly drawing to
a close. He could walk out of her apartment without causing any more
problems—he’d be on his way back to the hotel in a matter of minutes. No harm, no foul.
Or not. He watched Bec for a moment. Her hair frizzed slightly
from the warm damp air as she leaned over the dishes. He could see the faint
fluff of red against the side of her face. Her milky skin was slightly pink
from the heat.
He had a sudden image of milk white breasts with nipples like
roses. The hair between her legs would probably be red, too. He’d definitely
like to find out for sure.
She looked up suddenly, as if she’d only now become aware that
he was watching her. Almost without thinking about it, he raised his hand to
her cheek, feeling the warmth of her skin against his palm.
He brought his mouth to hers, breathing in her slight gasp of
surprise, his hands dropping to her shoulders. For a moment they stood joined,
her hands pressing against his chest, and then her mouth opened beneath his and
his tongue darted in to taste. Sweet, so
sweet. But something else too, like salted caramel, sweet and savory and
unexpected. He moved closer, sliding a hand down her back, and heard her purr
of arousal as her arms went around his neck. He cupped her ass, tight with
muscle, and his pulse beat hard.
What he’d been wanting all night. What he’d been wanting longer
than that if he was honest. Touching, tasting, moving. Yes, yes, yes.
Or not. Bec stepped
back, eyes wide, lips slightly open as she gasped in a breath. “No,” she
whispered. “This can’t… We can’t… I can’t do this.”
