Much later, when Mac crawled into his bed, he released his pent up anger over Buzz Decker and let worry take hold. Decker’s threats were only going to escalate. He wouldn’t go away until a judge ordered it and that might not happen for a while. He had to protect Callie and the children and there was only one way to do that.

If only, he could convince Callie to buy into his plan. She wasn’t ready to let him take over just yet. He’d have to work on that.

Chapter Four

Coming for dinner at Mac’s ranch had been the easiest, most no-brainer decision she’d ever made. Callie stood in Mac’s kitchen, marveling at the beauty of his home. To her, it seemed the most spectacular spot on the planet for almost as long as she could remember. The entire ranch was amazing, a sight to behold. Deuces Wild set nestled among other fabulous ranches of various sizes no more than three miles outside of Cotton Creek. Mac’s land was marked by twin flagstone pillars flanking either side of a long, winding road that led directly to the huge house and the outbuildings so necessary for ranch life. Last night he’d called and invited them all to come out to his place for dinner and this wasn’t an invitation she could refuse.

In the month since Emma’s death, time had whizzed by like a speeding bullet and through it all there had been Mac. Even with Buzz Decker looming over her like a redneck nightmare, she couldn’t seem to shake the hope that bloomed in her heart. At the lowest point of her life, Mac had been there. He kissed her tears away and made her toes curl. Hunger for him grew with every day that passed. She wanted more with Mac. She wanted a life and happiness.

Still. It was best to keep expectations low.

She was no longer a green high school girl. She was a mature woman who knew that fortunes could turn on a dime and getting hurt wasn’t something she needed. It was best to concentrate on making a life for her and these sweet kids. Smart.

She couldn’t imagine falling harder for Mac only to learn she’d just been a blip on his sexual radar. Life was tough enough without adding to her already overloaded emotional burden. She’d almost said no to his invitation for dinner, yet after considering things, she realized they all needed some fun. Besides, she was no coward. She could do this. Keep things friendly and her expectations low.

Despite the fact fall was in the air, it was unseasonably warm outside, sunny and bright and the sounds of laughter reached her, making her pause to look out the window over the sink. The pool beyond the lanai out back was covered in preparation for the coming winter, but there was plenty of yard space. Mac raced over the area like a teenager as he kicked a soccer ball with Austin and Izzy. It was so good to hear their laughter and to see them all enjoying this late Saturday afternoon.
