Lexie and Killian (12 page)
“Tomorrow is soon enough to find out. Meanwhile we need to get to bed. Tomorrow comes really early, especially with the horses to attend to before anything.”
Lexie undressed and slipped on the long white gown Killian had given her for the cold nights.
“Although I figure I’ll be able to keep you warm enough,” he teased when he handed her the package.
She twirled slightly for him, showing it off.
“You look like a snowflake,” he teased.
“Is there such a thing as a pregnant snowflake?” She stood sideways to the mirror, checking her profile, holding her hands beneath the teeny tiny baby bump.
“In this house there is. Come here.”
He pulled her into his arms, the place she always wanted most to be.
“I love you, Killian. More than I ever thought I could love anyone.”
He brushed her hair back from her face. “Same goes, darlin’. This has been a year full of blessings for us. Our wedding, this ranch, your success in Savannah and the upcoming show. We have a lot to be thankful for.”
“Especially each other.” She grinned up at him. “And many more babies to come.”
“As many as you want, sugar. I sure do enjoy making them.” Then he sobered. “And I’ll enjoy raising them with you just as much.”
“We have a lot of blessings, Killian,” she told him in a soft voice.
“We do. But for me, the biggest blessing is you.”
Lexie pulled his face down to hers so she could kiss him. She’d never known she could be this happy, or that forever would look so good.

The Sons of Dusty Walker
Rori and Jackson
Randi Alexander
Jackson Walker is anxious about spending a whole week in Red Creek, Kansas with his newly-discovered brothers. Will they be able to work as a team at the company they inherited from their dad? Can they even be in the same room together without getting into a dust-up?
What he has no concerns about, however, is the woman he’s fallen crazy in love with, sexy, quirky computer engineer Rori Hughes. But that changes when her family comes to town with an offer she can’t refuse. Jackson is more confused than he’s ever been in his life, including the day when he’d been just fifteen and learned his father had a wife—who was not Jackson’s mother.
Rori has major decisions to make, and she can feel Jackson backing away from her as he finds too many commitments which keep him away from town and out of her arms. His frequent nightmares concern her, but even more disturbing is the strange woman in town who has been talking with Jackson, and going out of her way to avoid Rori.
As fall turns into winter, and the holidays quickly approach, will Jackson and Rori find a way around their suspicions and insecurities or will there be separate and heartbroken Christmases for each of them?
