Hope you’re enjoying the long holiday weekend!

Here’s a quick snippet for you From The Texan’s Little Secret.

After Luke meets up with his first love again, he checks her out and definitely likes what he sees.  But then:

When he looked up, he found Carly’s wide blue eyes and full lips just as much of a turn-on.  The sight brought him right back to the day he’d met her and seen the shy, insecure girl hiding behind the wild child she’d pretended to be.

She stared at him, her brow crinkled, waiting for his answer, which he would happily provide…as soon as he could recall her question.  After a minute, his brain cells finally kicked in again.  She wanted his opinion on her ride.  “You cranked the machine up high enough,” he said hoarsely.  “I’ll give you that.”

“What about form?  I get points for that, too.  And, not to mention, for staying in the saddle twice as long as anyone else.”

He shrugged.  He hadn’t been impressed.  At least, not by her ride on the bull.  Had to admit, though, he’d liked the way her long blond hair tumbled around her shoulders—just the way it had the night they’d made love in the back of his truck.

“Well?” she demanded.

He cleared his throat.  “You had some techniques down.  I’ll throw in points for that, too.  But you put about as much of yourself into the ride as Rosie does when I cart her around in her little red wagon.  As in, none.  Nada.”

She glared at him.  “Who has time for self-expression when they’re in the saddle?  Besides, bull riding’s not an art form.”

“Maybe not.  But there’s a lot more to it than just putting your hands in the right places.”
