All morning long, Maggie worked steadily, trying to keep her focus on her chores, while inside she was a bundle of conflicting emotions.

Last night had happened so fast she hadn’t had time to think. She’d acted instinctively on the arousal he inspired in her, and she’d gone with those feelings to places she’d never imagined—into sinful pleasures that even now she had to really work hard to feel ashamed about.

She was a fallen woman. A hussy. Her body warmed at the thought. Shouldn’t she be appalled with herself?

Instead she felt liberated, lighter at heart. Having always believed herself a sensible person, she’d been delighted to discover she could also be terribly, wonderfully slutty.

She’d fucked a younger man. Practically begged him to do it. She’d paraded herself in her nightclothes, rubbed her body against his, and let him know in no uncertain terms that she was available.

She couldn’t blame him for taking her up on her offer. Didn’t resent his eager acceptance. That he’d turned the tables on her and taken control from her, she couldn’t regret.

The man definitely knew what he was about.

However, as happy and as satisfied as she felt the morning after, sadness lingered at the edges of her happy little bubble.

She couldn’t let their affair continue. Someone had to act responsibly. It had to be her. Not that she’d acted all that responsibly the night before.

Not once had she paused to ask him to use a condom.

She couldn’t blame the lapse on the heat of the moment, nor on her lack of experience using them—she’d wanted his seed. Needed to take the reckless chance that, just maybe, she might conceive. The urge had been overwhelming.

Maggie found flowers on the kitchen counter wrapped in two white plastic bags to conceal them. A dozen red roses she brought automatically to her nose to inhale their sweet fragrance.

The flowers were a lovely gesture that spoke of his pleasure in her, his affection even, but were still a gesture she wasn’t sure she felt comfortable with.

Last night had been a revelation, but that was as far as she could allow things to go between them. Pleasure seemed to flow as easily as breath between them whenever they touched, and that scared the hell out of her.

She simply couldn’t let him get close enough again to compromise her decision. She needed to set things straight with him right away.

Danny wasn’t hard to find. He worked alone in the training corral at the far side of the stable, a buckskin quarter horse circling him on a long rope.

She wiped at the perspiration that dotted her forehead and upper lip and then admitted it was a futile gesture. Even if it weren’t summertime in Texas, she’d be sweating.

Dressed in a straw cowboy hat, jeans, and a dark tee, Danny’s lean, muscled body drew her hungry gaze despite her inner warning to keep this light and nonchalant. She’d politely thank him for the roses, remind him of their agreement, and be on her way.

She climbed
