BLURB
Midwife Kerry Mackenzie has tried to move on with her life to no
avail. Her deceased husband’s parents expect her to remain true to his memory.
But at twenty-four, Kerry’s too young to wear widow weeds for the rest of her
life. Seeking independence, she takes a job miles from home that will require
her to move. Things may have worked out as planned if she hadn’t gotten
stranded on the way…
Ranch owner Damian Greer happens upon Kerry perched alongside her
disabled car on an Amarillo highway. Coming from a family whose members move
quickly when it comes to love, the instant attraction he feels is no surprise.
After observing her during an emergency, he suspects she may be the woman for
him.
When it appears her car will be out of commission for a few days,
Damian offers to drive Kerry to Albuquerque to meet with her realtor. Can
Damian convince her to abandon her plan, and give them a chance?
EXCERPT
He
took her in his arms, and within minutes, he had them spinning on the dance
floor as if they’d
done
it together for years. Every time Damian turned her, he tugged her closer. The
scent from the flower in her hair combined with the light perfume she’d used
was an aphrodisiac. He slid his thigh between her legs and spun her halfway
across the floor. Her skirt billowed out, and her curls danced in the light of
the lanterns. Kerry threw her head back, her throat muscles moving as she
laughed. He did some different movements, and each time she followed him with
ease. Her beautiful, hazel eyes sparkled and her cheeks flushed a deep pink.
Was
this how she would look in the throes of passion?
The
music reverberated through his body, tightening his gut as the woman in his
arms held him
captive.
Her scent, her feel, her softness. His gaze met hers, and her smile faltered as
she searched his face, questioning.
The
band finished the merengue and moved quickly and easily into a slow number.
Damian cupped Kerry’s face and lowered his head. His lips pressed against hers,
and she slid her palms up his chest to circle his neck. Slim fingers played
with the hair at his collar. He turned their fused bodies slowly in a circle
and ravished her mouth. He pressed against her lips with his tongue, seeking
entrance. She opened, granting him access to the sweetest nectar he’d ever
tasted.
