EXCERPT

 

Ah, hell. Not this. What was it with women, anyway? Whyd they have this burning desire to get to the bottom of absolutely every feeling they had? Why couldnt they sit in silence, enjoy the scenery? I dont know you well enough to be upset with you,he finally said, increasing his pressure on the gas pedal. The cops were notorious for pulling over speeders on this section through town, but tonight he was willing to risk it.

 

Look.Averys hands sliced the air in front of her. I understand why you dont want to sell. Trust me. I get it.

 

Ha. Trust her. He didnt trust her any more than he trusted her father. At the end of the day, she worked for the infamous Edward King. She might be smokinhot and nice, and, like she insisted, a good person, but she still had a job to do. He wouldnt forget that.

 

Instead of answering, he leaned over and flicked on the radio. Nothing like a little Brad Paisley to tune out a woman.

 

Avery shot him a fiery look, topaz eyes blazing, lips thinned into a warning that tempted him to test her.

 

That didnt help things. She looked even better when she got mad. His grip on the wheel tightened until his knuckles ached. Mom was right. He had to get out more. Start dating again. Any woman besides Avery King

 

She hunched forward and fiddled with the radio until he could hardly hear Paisley. Fine. That was fine. Five more minutes and theyd be back at the ranch anyway. Hed be free of her.

 

You need to listen to me, Bryce. Please.She launched into yet another impassioned monologue about how selling the ranch could change his life.

 

Yeah, well. Hed had enough changes in his life over the last few years. So sue him if he wasnt interested. She didnt seem to pick up on his lack of concentration, though. She went on and on until he pulled the truck into the driveway and parked in front of the office.

 

Are you listening to me?She leaned over the console between them and got in his face, close enough that he could smell oranges, that he could trace the sexy curve of her upper lip with his tongue if hed wanted to.

 

Have you heard anything Ive said?

 

The throb started again, deep in his chest, invading his body until it occupied all of him.

 

Seriously, Bryce this is—”

 

Screw it. He cupped his hand around the back of her head and roughly brought her lips to his, totally unprepared for the impact it would have. Shock waves coursed through him, unleashing a craving stronger than hed ever felt.

 

Avery squeaked in surprise but he didnt let up. Need thundered through him and it was a helluva lot louder than the logic hed spent the last several hours beating into his thick skull. Her lips were soft and moist and everything hed hungered for during the last three lonely years. He gentled a hand up into her hair. It felt like silk against his skin.

 

A small moan purred in her throat and her upper body relaxed, lips melding to his in a pulsating heat. She ran her hands up his chest, and that was all he needed. He bent forward, halfway over the console, gathering her closer, kissing her harder, deeper. If it wasnt for that console, hed pull her right into his lap

 

Wow. Justwow,she whispered against his lips.

 

He answered by parting her lips with his tongue. There. Thatd take care of her chatting problem.

 

Avery gasped a sharp intake of air, her chest rising against his.

 

Taking it as an invitation, he commanded her with his lips, opening and closing them in a sensual rhythm. A dull ache resounded in his chest. God, hed forgotten the depth of a kiss

 

He shifted to get a better angle, more access, but that console

 

She pulled back with a small smile, lips grazing his in a tease, then she pressed in again and proved that she could make out as well as she could talk.

 

A scratching sound scraped the window. Moose whined, then barked.


Great timing, as usual.

SYNOPSIS

 

IT'S GONNA BE A WILD RIDE

Ben Noble needs to do some damage control. Fast. His heart has always been in ranching, but there's no escaping the spotlight on his high-powered political family. Now the only thing that can restore his reputation is a getaway to the fresh air of Aspen, Colorado. Not to mention that the trip gives Ben a second chance to impress a certain gorgeous mountain guide. But Paige Harper is nothing like the shy girl he remembers . . . she's so much more.

Paige is serious about Ben, too: seriously annoyed that the playboy cowboy is using her mountain for his PR. Once upon a time, she fell for Ben's aw-shucks charm, but the fairy tale didn't end happily. Paige doesn't intend to let down her guard again. But keeping their relationship all business and no pleasure may be harder than she thinks-especially if the moonlight, the Rockies, and a certain irresistible rancher have anything to say about it...

STOP RUNNING . . .AND START FALLING

For Ruby James the Walker Mountain Ranch is her safe haven. Here in Aspen, Colorado, she can finally build a quiet life for herself without fear of her old one rearing its ugly head. Or so Ruby thinks. Any single woman would be happy to indulge a tall, dark, and curious cop-but the closer Ruby gets to him, the closer she gets to losing her newfound peace.

Police officer Sawyer Hawkins is no stranger to secrets. He's ready to leave town for good until a security threat brings him back to Walker Ranch, and Ruby's gorgeous green eyes soon have him second-guessing his decision to go. Her kindness and quiet strength awaken feelings he'd thought long buried, even as her reluctance to talk about her past worries him. The cop in Sawyer only wants the truth-but the man in him wants Ruby in his arms forever . . .
