A sigh rose from the crowd that had
gathered around the horses and police officers.
"Say yes!" a woman
shouted.
"Say yes!" called another
woman.
Before long, everyone standing in
the vicinity chanted
Yes! Yes! Yes!
Tears streaked down Ella's face,
and she kneeled and flung her arms around Jesse's neck. "I thought I'd
lost you." She hiccoughed and cried. "I don't care if I ever perform
on Broadway again. I'd go back to Texas today, if you wanted me to."
"Baby, I want you to stay
here." He pulled her into his arms and held her tight. "You have a
gift. I wouldn't ever ask you to give it up."
"But what about
home...Texas.?" She buried her face in his neck, her tears staining his
crisp blue collar.
"My home is with you, wherever
we are."
"Hey lady, my lunch break is
almost over. Would ya say yes already?" a dark-haired, and somewhat
harried, woman stood over Ella and Jesse, her arms crossed over her chest, her
brows narrowed.
Ella laughed and hugged Jesse
around the neck then raised her voice for all to hear, "Yes!"
A cheer went up, startling the
horses. Paddy stamped his feet.
Jesse rose, bringing her with him,
his arm around her waist. "I love you, Ella."
"You're my one, my only...and
you are truly amazing." Ella flung her arms around his neck and kissed
him. "I love my New York City cowboy."
Twenty years of livin' and lovin' on a South Texas ranch
raising horses, cattle, goats, ostriches and emus left an indelible impression
on Myla Jackson, one she likes to instill
into her
red-hot stories. Myla pens wildly sexy, fun adventures of
all genres including historical westerns, medieval tales, romantic suspense,
contemporary romance and paranormal beasties of all shapes and sexy sizes. When
she's not busy writing, she spends time with her family, boating, skiing and
riding four-wheelers. She lives in the tree-covered hills of Northwest Arkansas
with her husband of more than 20 years and her muses—the human-wanna-be
canines—Chewy and Sweetpea.
