"A classic in the making"
~ Kimberly Rocha, Book Obsessed Chicks Book Club Reviews
Hot
cowboys.
The term alone brings a host of images to mind. Cowboy butts. Rough, calloused
hands. Unshaven, strong jawlines. A sexy glint in adventurous, no-fear eyes.
It’s enough to get your swoon on!!
Rugged Wyatt Kinnison, eldest of the
three non-traditional brothers of the men of the Kinnison Legacy is the epitome
of “Swoon.” Tall, dark, handsome, scarred by more than one woman’s betrayal, he’s
now a loner who possesses integrity, grit and a fierce loyalty to family. He’s
a formidable challenge to the second grade teacher who meets him by chance when
she gets lost and must ask directions, one dark winters night. Between a
dangerous winter storm, an unexpected field trip, and a near tragedy averted--poor
Wyatt doesn’t realize until put to the test, how determined Aimee Worth can be
when she sets her mind to what she wants.
Set-up: Aimee
readies to ask Wyatt to go for coffee after running into him at the grocery
store. It’s the second time they’ve met and she can’t figure out why he seems
so guarded—
She shrugged. “Denise says I’m lucky you
acknowledge me at all. Quite the reputation with the ladies you must have
around here, Slick.”
“My name isn’t Slick and Denise should
mind her business.” He shifted the groceries in his crates so they wouldn’t tip
over on the way back home. Where he needed to head soon before….
“I was wondering if you’d care to join
me for a cup of coffee?”
Before that happened. “No, I don’t think
so.”
“Do I scare you, cowboy?”
He let out a quiet laugh. “You certainly
have quite the mouth on you.”
“That’s not a joke, is it?” she asked.
He slammed the gate of the truck bed.
“Look, it’s been a pleasure. Thanks for the apple thing.” He started to leave.
“Oh my gawd. I just figured it out. You
don’t like women. Of course, it all makes sense now.”
Wyatt walked to the back of the truck
where she stood and stared at her. “What are you talking about?”
She blinked at him, her eyes bright with
wonder. “I don’t know why I didn’t see it before. You hardly come to town, you
prefer keeping to yourself. It must be difficult.”
He clamped his hand on the tailgate and
pushed his face to hers. Of all the damn foolishness. “What must be difficult?”
Wyatt took a deep breath and waited patiently, his gaze locked to hers.
“’Course it’s just as hard for single
women. Don’t get me wrong. I do understand. My dad calls this place the land
that time forgot. But for a guy with alternative preferences it must be—”
His brows shot up. “What?” he spat out
in utter surprise. Does she really think…?
She leaned forward, studying him with
those beautiful eyes. “It’s okay. I have no problem with it. You know, I think
we could be really good friends, just the same.”
“Friends?”
She shrugged. “Sure, why not? I accept
your choices.”
“Oh well.” He chuckled with an odd sense
of wonder at her gutsiness. “That’s mighty big of you.”
Her mouth turned down. “Look I’m just
trying to be nice. Everybody gets lonely now and again.”
“I don’t.” At least if he did, he hadn’t
thought about it in a long while. Which wasn’t the point. Good Lord, did people
really think he was a Brokeback Mountain man?”
She tipped her head and gave him a sweet
look of pity.
“Oh for gawd’s sake, this is
ridiculous.” He wasn’t sure exactly what it was he intended to prove by his
knee-jerk reaction, but the next thing he knew, he’d grabbed her fluffy, pink
coat by the shoulders and captured her mouth in a kiss. His immediate thought
was to end all question about his lifestyle choices, the second, a realization
that while it was a horrid idea, parts much lower found it quite exhilarating.
