Chapter 49

“SO,” LUKE SAID. “DAVID AND JOSIE ARE TOGETHER. Are we…?”

Libby looked up at the ceiling in mock contemplation. “I don’t know. Will you wear the chaps?”

Luke nodded.

“To bed?”

He grinned. “You want me to put them on now?”

“Not necessary,” she said. “Not necessary at all.” She pulled him down beside her, wrapping her arms around his neck, and kissed him.

And kissed him some more. He returned the kiss, gently and tenderly, stroking her sore ribs, handling her with all the care he could, but she pressed hard against him, arching her back. He’d planned to take care of her, to help her rest, but now she was all fired up. Resting seemed to be the last thing on her mind.

“Don’t you have a headache?” he asked.

“I suddenly feel a lot better,” Libby said. “We ranch women are resilient.”

Wow. Maybe he’d get lucky after all.

But he was already lucky. Lucky she’d come to Lackaduck in the first place. Lucky to be here beside her. Lucky to have her in his life.

“We should get married,” he said.

“Whoa.” Libby pulled away. “You’re moving a little fast here.”

“We cowboys are like that,” he said. “We rope ’em and tie ’em in 12.5 seconds.”

“The roping and tying might be interesting,” she said. “But I was hoping things would take a little longer.”

“I was talking about baby cows,” he said. “With women, I like to take my time.” A mischievous glint lit his eyes. “But I’ll bet I can get you to moo.”

“Is that a dare?”

“No. It’s a promise. And I always keep my promises.”

“I know you do,” Libby said. “I know.”

She rested her head on his shoulder, and suddenly the mood in the room changed as surely as if the lights had dimmed and “Sea of Love” had swelled from the stereo. He kissed her, sweetly and slowly, taking his time. All the desperation of their previous encounters was gone. The last time he’d kissed her, he’d thought they might never touch again. This time, he knew it was forever. It was a keeper kiss—long, luscious, and so precious he swore he’d hold it in his mind forever.

“You should be in bed,” he murmured when the kiss broke. “We should be in bed.”

“I don’t know.” She gave him her most seductive smile. “I was thinking we’d christen the sofa. It’s French Victorian Baroque Provincial, you know.”

“And that means…”

“That means we could do it all four ways. That kiss was the French part.”

He glanced nervously over his shoulder at the carvings on the sofa’s high back. “I don’t know. Victorian— that doesn’t sound too exciting.”

“Hey, you don’t know how wild those repressed women could get. You snap off those corsets and there was no stopping them.”

“No?”

“No.”

“Show me.” He tugged at her T-shirt, feeling a shiver skitter over her skin. He slipped his hands beneath the soft fabric and cupped her breasts.

She moaned.

“That was a moo,” he whispered.
