The redheaded mouthpiece who makes eating green beans look pornographic.
This kid is going to be the death of me. And so is his goddamn nanny.
But the words beat it out of her mouth in that slightly hoarse voice has the air around me feeling altogether too thin.
I watch Willa’s expression transform from irritated to incredulous. “She didn’t.”
And not because I miss Talia, just because there are only so many hits a man’s pride can take.
The World’s Grumpiest Rancher
do the gentlemanly thing and offer her a hand so that she doesn’t slip. But that’s just before I do the distinctly ungentlemanly thing where I let my eyes ravage her
Because I’m just so fucking gentlemanly.
Summer: Adorable. You’re already protective.
I smirk at him, getting far too much enjoyment out of needling him, especially since I know he loves to cook and is damn good at it.
“Says the guy who still hasn’t given my panties back.”
reminding him to keep his shit together and stay quiet.
Cade flies back, and I glance down at Luke, wondering what the hell would inspire him to randomly scream chipmunks.
Which is to say, good.
My mom would say he needs some good sex. I’m not so sure she’d be wrong.
Because that saying is straight trash, and years of bartending have given me plenty of time to see boys being boys.
I gave the yard a good blow job.”
Next time you can make yourself useful and blow it yourself, Beau.”
My god. Is Harvey Eaton a sheltered simpleton or a comedic genius?
“Eaton. You grumpy motherfucker. You just laughed,” I blurt. “Yeah, Red. I did.”
“It looks fabulous out there. You blew the hell outta that lawn.”
I shove away a spark of jealousy over the way my dad and Willa are smiling at each other. Because that is insane.
“I like you too, Red.
But with Red, she toes the line of joking.
“You kiss your mother with that mouth, Red?”
“The joke’s on you though. I wouldn’t last ten minutes and just because you’d be quiet doesn’t mean I would be.”
Cade: I hope our nation’s enemies don’t find out what a pussy you are.
Cade: No. You act like a chucklehead, but you know how to kill people with your bare hands. I’m not dumb enough to fight you.
Lines I shouldn’t cross. Lines I shouldn’t even be spending this long staring at.
It’s addictive having her attention on me. I wonder if Luke feels like this too?
Because for all his wildness, Luke is a cuddler. Softhearted beneath it
Because she’s right. I’ve done nothing but judge her since the moment I first saw her. And that’s a real dick move. One she doesn’t deserve.
As if a stunner like her wants to spend her Friday nights with a washed-up single dad, cleaning up the mess a kid and his grandfather made.
Willa: Nah. Cade’s hotter. Went home with him instead. Summer: Lol. Summer: Wait. Are you joking? I can’t tell. Willa: Save a horse, ride a cowboy. Summer: I still can’t tell.
But then he’s the man who suggested he wouldn’t be quiet while I gave him a blow job. The one who ran away when I questioned it.
“I made it, Red.”
Red.
But with Cade, it feels different. I like it. Feels like he has a special name for me.
The man is a walking, talking wet dream and I’m not even sure he realizes it.
A boy not really getting to mourn his mother’s death because he just threw himself into doing what needed to be done rather than doing what he wanted to.
And I soak it all up raptly, loving getting to know this man who’s been a mystery wrapped up in an enigma.
“You’ve already asked two questions in a row, Red. My turn.”
There’s no distaste on his face this time. It’s pure want. And that’s a look I can recognize.
A line that may well differentiate appropriate from inappropriate.
A little part of me wants to hide in the water, but the bigger part of me gets off on sitting here on display for him.
Knowing he wanted to see it.
Knowing his cock has got to be rock-hard u...

“Goodnight, Red.”
It’s perfectly natural. Willa is a smoke show. She’d make a priest crumble. And I’m no man of the cloth.
Jealousy of a bathing suit is a new feeling for me.
