Boots and Buckles (20 page)
His friend clenched his hands into fists. “And you’re crossin’ a line.”
“Man, you can’t keep doing this. Running from these girls who might change your world.”
Christian’s stomach bottomed out at the memory of Claire’s words.
I thought he was the real thing.
“Shut up, Davis. You don’t know what you’re talking about, and it’s none of your goddamn business.”
None of my business that you didn’t join in last night because your heart is in a relationship, even if your hard head won’t allow it?
“Yeah,” Christian said, brushing past Tucker on the way out, “it’s never my business.”

Sometimes, a girl has to take more than one bull by the horns.
Ugly Stick Saloon, Book 6
Mona Daley has had her fill of rodeo cowboys. Especially after Grant Raleigh and his partner blew through town three years ago. A torrid affair, a promise to return, then...nothing.
Chalking it up to girl-in-every-town syndrome, she swore off buckle-bearing cowpokes and never looked back. Now she’s working nights at the Ugly Stick Saloon to make enough money to save her beauty salon.
Grant has plans for his return to Mona’s life, plans that include groveling at her feet for another chance. Except his roping partner, Sam Whitefeather, gets to her first—and it looks like they’ve hit it off.
If he thought Mona didn’t harbor feelings for him, Grant would be the decent guy, step aside, and let her be happy. But one look, one touch on the dance floor and he finds himself falling all over again. He’s determined to prove his sincerity and that he’s the better man for her. Even if it means squaring off in the hottest arena imaginable—the bedroom.
Warning: The rodeo’s coming to town and there’s nothing two hot cowboys can’t do with a rope, a willing woman, and a
lot
of imagination.
