Luke Brooks did a lot of sexy things,
Brooks kept looking back to check on me. The smile never left his face.
I wanted him to kiss me. I wanted it so badly.
And Emmy wasn’t just pretty. She was extraordinary.
Watching the way her confidence grew with every lap around the corral yesterday had made my jeans tighten. And the way she threw herself at me afterward? I was a fucking goner.
I wanted to make Emmy mine in every single way. I wanted to know everything about her, including how she’d sound moaning my name.
It wasn’t my place to tell anyone what Emmy was going through. I just wanted to be there for her.
“If you hurt my best friend, I’ll cut your dick off and feed it to you.”
I had a bad feeling, somehow, Teddy knew exactly how I felt about her best friend.
Wes was a dreamer.
in the way where it felt like anything was possible.
His ability to see potential in things was something I admired.
“Everything ends, Emmy. Whether you choose to keep racing or not, I do want you to know that I would love to see you ride one last time in the town that built us.”
It was like I had spent my life getting pieces of her, and now I was finally putting the pieces together.
Guess what? There wasn’t any piece of Emmy I didn’t like. I was so fucked.
Something about her just felt different. It felt good. I wanted to know where it could go, where we could go.
I wanted to give her pieces of me, too.
Today, I was going to give Emmy a piece of me she could hold onto.
God, he was so demanding sometimes. I wondered if he was like that in bed.
Luke Brooks did something I didn’t even know he could do—he blushed.
As if he couldn’t get any hotter.
Luke Brooks had a heart the size of the Rockies.
“This place is mine. You’re the first person I’ve brought here.”
Why was he stripping? Not that I was opposed.
Don’t even get me started on the fucking veins running down his forearms.
“You know, if you don’t like the road you’re on, you can always pave a new one.”
“Emmy, I want you to know I’m happy you’re here.”
I could feel his lips in my hair. I wanted them everywhere.
Brooks laced his fingers through mine. At that moment, I made my decision. I was going to kiss this man. Today.
This woman took up every piece of spare space in my brain, and I didn’t want to stay away from her any longer.
She was kind and brave. She was also so fucking beautiful. It was getting more difficult not to let myself think of what it would be like to touch her, to claim her.
The second our lips met, it was like I was on fire.
“You’ve chickened out on kissing me twice, so I did it myself,”
I pulled on her belt loop again. On instinct, I brought my hand up to her throat and hauled her mouth back to mine.
She was everything.
I didn’t break our kiss as I carefully moved both of us inside, pushing her along the bench until she was laying down, legs still wrapped around me, and I was on top of her. Exactly where I wanted to be.
I wanted to memorize everything about her, with my mouth, my hands, my tongue.
“You’re so fucking perfect.”
“More, I need more.”
“I want you to fuck me in this truck. Please.”
“That’s what you want, sugar? For me to fuck you out here in the open?”
I was finally the one who’d made her hair messy.
“I’m going to punish you for that, sugar,” I said.
I’d been wrapped around her finger since she walked into my bar.
I wasn’t usually the type of girl who made the first move, but in this case, I was happy I did. It was like, as soon as I kissed him, it gave him the permission he needed to just let go.
Everything felt different after kissing Emmy.
At that moment, the back slider opened, and in walked Emmy. It was a good thing I was still holding Riley because if I wasn’t, I probably would’ve dropped to my knees.
“I’m serious, Emmy. I don’t know when it happened, but I like you. I like you a lot more than I fucking should, and I know we shouldn’t do this because a million things could go wrong, but you feel so right.”
She fit in my arms like she was made for them.
“I like you, too, Luke.”
