Tess Taylor is the quiet, serious daughter of a Colorado ranch family with dreams of her own.

Book Excerpt One:

â€œHello, Drew.â€ She walked forward to stand a few feet away. â€œI hope itâ€™s all right that Iâ€™ve come.â€ Her voice was unsteady, her nervousness apparent.

No, itâ€™s not all right. â€œOf course. Iâ€™m glad to see you.â€ You look beautiful. He cleared his throat. â€œDid you have a safe trip?â€

â€œOh, yes, it was wonderfulâ€”so majestic and breathtaking. Sometimes we forget how beautiful some things are when we havenâ€™t seen them in a while.â€

Drew drank in the sight of her. â€œYes we do, Tess. We certainly do.â€

Book Excerpt Two:

He opened his arms and Tess fell into them, clutching his shirt, and burying her head in his neck.

Drew pulled her tighter and buried his face in her hair. He was vaguely aware of a door opening and closing. He looked up to see that Jericho was gone.

It was just the two of them. She squirmed a little on his lap and Drew felt a slight hardening of his body. Heâ€™d felt the sensations for the last few days and hoped they were an indication that his entire body was healing. Relief washed over him as he realized another hurdle was being crossed.

When Tess lifted her face to his it seemed natural to move his lips over hers. It was a soft caress, just a touch. He brushed his lips over hers. She strained to get closer. His hands moved to the back of her head and deepened the kiss. Her lips parted, and his tongue traced the edges of her mouth. He knew she had little experience and didnâ€™t want to frighten her.

Tess melted into his arms. She was totally unprepared for the warmth that swam over her body. She could smell the mixture of pine soap and fresh sweat and couldnâ€™t stop herself from running her fingers along his cheek bones, and wrapping her hands around his neck to draw him closer. She never wanted the kiss to stop.
