“Jordan, do you know where my saddle is?”

Jordan turned to see Maggie stroll toward her from across the barnyard. She stopped working on the repairs to the front porch to give the red-haired woman her full attention. As always, Jordan felt the rush of desire pass through her abdomen. “Your saddle? It’s not in the barn?”

“No. I put it on the stand yesterday when Shawny and I returned from our ride, but it’s not there today. I was wondering if maybe you moved it.”

“No, I didn’t. In fact, I haven’t been in the barn yet this morning. The saddler came yesterday, didn’t he? Maybe he thought it needed repair and took it back to his shop.”

Maggie stopped in front of Jordan and tilted her head to one side. Her curls escaped in all directions from beneath her cowboy hat. “Hmm. That’s possible, I suppose. I’ll call him to find out. This really stinks. I need to check on the horses in the north pasture, and you know Shawny doesn’t do well with saddles he’s not used to.”

Jordan looked into Maggie’s eyes and smiled. “Why don’t you take my horse? I’m sure Sally won’t mind the exercise.”

Maggie smiled back. “You’re so sweet. I just might do that.” She stood on tiptoe to place a kiss on Jordan’s lips. Jordan’s arms immediately circled Maggie’s waist as the kiss deepened. She pulled Maggie close to her.

“Hmm,” Jordan moaned. “I want you, my love.”

Maggie pulled back to catch her breath and to allow Jordan easier access to the sensitive skin of her neck. “God! If you keep that up, I’ll never get out to the north pasture.”

“You could always send Jan out to check on them while we make better use of your time right here,” Jordan suggested slyly.

“I would, but she doesn’t seem to be around right now. I’m having second thoughts about keeping her on. One moment she’s stuck to me like glue, and the next, she’s nowhere to be found.”

Jordan picked up her hammer and dropped it into the sling on to her tool belt. “If you ask me, I think she’s trying to win you over.”

Maggie blushed then gently punched Jordan’s shoulder. “Get out of Dodge. She is not.”

Jordan locked eyes with Maggie. “Trust me, love, she wants you. She gets that same puppy-dog look on her face that I do when I’m around you. You have that effect on people, you know.”

Maggie pulled Jordan close. “Well, lover, you have nothing to worry about. She can try all she wants. It’s you I love, and nothing she can do will change that.”

“The feeling is mutual. Now go on. Take Sally to the north pasture. I’ll call the saddler for you while you’re gone, okay?”

“Okay. I’ll see you in a few hours.”

A few minutes later, Maggie emerged, riding Jordan’s horse. She waved her hat in Jordan’s direction as she galloped toward the north pasture. When Maggie was finally out of sight, Jordan entered the house and called the saddler. “Are you sure you don’t have it? She left it on the rail by the horse stalls.
