“So goddamn good I’m gonna ruin you for every man who comes after me.”
Ruby. I want her. So fucking bad. Which pisses me off. That girl was like a ray of sunlight making me come alive. Her laugh, her sweet kiss, hell, even her adorable ramble of curious questions. If she’s not giving them to me, I don’t want anyone else to have them.
I scrub a hand over my beard, glancing down at my dirty blue-jean shirt and muddy boots. Damn if I don’t feel like a peasant sitting next to a princess.
I lay my head on his chest and listen to his heartbeat. It’s so beautiful. So healthy. I inhale strongly. He doesn’t smell like rich cologne. He smells like a hardworking man, like a cowboy, like dirt and sunshine and life.
A happy glow lights up her face, like I’ve promised her the moon, and I’m hit with the strange sensation to make her look like that all the time.
I want to track the motherfucker down who stole the sunshine from her face and beat him to a pulp.
She’s sunshine scorching the darkest pieces of me, a glow filling the cracks in my heart.
Goddamn this woman. Beautiful, tiny chaos. That’s what she’s been ever since she set foot on the ranch. I’ve faced down bulls, broken bones, roped wild horses, and the only thing that terrifies the fuck out of me is this this five-foot-three
foot-three fairy-tale slip of a girl.
“Baby, you could be a serial killer and I’d forgive you.”
Nothing will happen to her. I’ll walk through the fires of hell before I let anyone hurt her.
“Stay,” he growls against my lips. “Stay and I’ll give you everything.” Those calloused hands cup my cheek and our gazes lock. Hold. Burn. “The ranch. Every sunrise. My heart. But that’s a lie because you already have it. You own me, Sunflower.”
