He promised he’d stay away…but he can’t resist keeping her close
Setting rules and following them to the letter is part of cowboy Nick Haskins’s code. It keeps life uncomplicated, and his heart intact. The love he had for his high school sweetheart is ashes in the wind, but he’s not counting on her twin, Lindsay Gavin, to show up on his ranch -- or in his dreams.
Lindsay’s got a code of her own: hands off her sister’s guy. But now that Nick is free to share his bunkhouse and his bed, she can’t help but take what he’s offering. There’s no harm in satisfying years worth of curiosity. There’s no shame in indulging in the sexiest fun of her life. Only, when Nick and Lindsay let desire set fire to the rules, will they both end up getting burned?
Short, sweet, and steamy story. Nick is a horse trainer on the Granger ranch and is stunned to find himself sharing the bunkhouse with the newest trainer - his high school girlfriend's twin sister. He has a rule about siblings of exes - don't mess with them. Except he'd broken that rule six months earlier with a beer-fueled kiss that he hasn't been able to forget. But he's determined to stick to his rules and keep his hands off Lindsay.
Lindsay has had feelings for Nick for years, even when he belonged to Carol Ann. She can't deny the attraction and doesn't want to. What she'd like is to see where it goes. But first, she has to get past both his and Carol Ann's objections.
I had fun watching Nick fight his feelings. It was a losing battle and he knew it. The only question was how long could he last. I loved watching the pot finally boil over, and the heat between them was intense. But Nick still needed to reconcile his rules and his feelings. The story finished with a conversation between Nick, Lindsay, and Carol Ann that had an unexpected twist to it.
