Cash (Lucky River Ranch, #1)

“Did you poison it?” I eye the lemonade. “Take a sip and find out.” “Would that be murder or manslaughter?” Mollie lifts a shoulder, her eyes on mine. “Neither. I cover my tracks.” “You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone.” I take the lemonade, the cold pressing into my hand. “Nice Brooks & Dunn reference. But no, I most certainly will not miss you.”

If this heat doesn’t kill me, Mollie Luck surely will.

“Back when you were fun,” Wyatt says wistfully. “I miss those days.” I screw up my face. “Cash was fun?” Wyatt sips his Shiner Bock. “Hard to believe, I know.”

Lol

Dear. God. Jesus Lord and savior, why you gotta test me like this?

Lmao

A shadow moves across Mollie’s eyes. I’ve never wanted to burn anything down. But I’d burn down this whole town if it meant never seeing that look in her eyes again.

know,” I manage. “Everyone on the ranch. Everyone in your family. They all look to you, and you never ever let them down.” He breathes in. Out. “They’re everything to me.” God, how have I not gone up in a fireball yet? Because truly, there is nothing sexier than a man who shows up for the people he loves. He’s showing up for me.

This man is turning me inside out. He’s turning me into someone I never thought I was.

“I got you, honey,” he murmurs against my cheek. “You’re gonna be okay.”

Omg HOT

“Honey, I’d marry the shit out of you. Not because it’s the right thing to do, but because I’m in love with you.”
