Alex tucked his hammer into his tool belt. Stepping back from the barn, he settled his Stetson more firmly on his head to shade his eyes from the late-afternoon sun and stared up at the towering structure. Almost done. Soon, no one would ever know there had been a fire here.

He always found hard physical labor satisfying. It also had the added benefit of easing some of the pent-up anger and frustration from his encounters with Huntington and Rodriquez. The temptation to allow the two men to destroy one another was overwhelming. He’d actually consider it, except for one thing.

Rebecca.

Desire continued to rip through him after his latest encounter with her. He’d hoped that working on his barn would ease it. Instead, a bone-deep hunger gnawed at him, warning that this wasn’t an emotion he could expunge from his system through sweat and determination. It would require far more than that. Even so, his labors had clarified one thing.

Sebastian Huntington would pay for what he’d done. And Rebecca was going to end up back in his bed—but not in order to settle her father’s debt.

“You’ve got company,” one of his hands said, inclining his head toward the gravel drive.

Sure enough, a faint plume of dust rose in the distance. A few minutes later, a sporty convertible pulled into the sweeping circle fronting the ranch house. It didn’t take much guesswork to figure out who sat behind the steering wheel.

He took his time joining Rebecca. She stood with casual elegance beside the door of her Cabriolet and waited him out. She wore a sexy little dress in a stunning bronze that made the most of her figure and showcased a pair of legs that were among the prettiest he’d ever seen. The setting sun caught in her hair, turning the rich red to a halo of vibrant color around her face. She wasn’t wearing sunglasses and the vividness of her green eyes hit like a shock as he approached. She stared at him, as proud and indomitable and self-assured as ever. Well, that made two of them, both too headstrong for their own good.

He shoved his Stetson to the back of his head. “I’m almost afraid to ask, but what are you doing here, Becca?”

She straightened, facing him with a determination that made him instantly wary. “I’ve come to solve two of our most pressing problems.”

Hell. “If this is about your father—”

“It’s about my father’s debt, to be exact.”

“By all means, let’s be exact.”

He might as well have saved the sarcasm. She brushed it aside the way she would a pesky mosquito. “Alicia came into my shop today and mentioned that you’ve been without a housekeeper ever since the fire.”

He took the odd turn of conversation in stride, merely folding his arms across his chest and cocking an eyebrow. “So?”

“So, you’ll be relieved to know that won’t be an issue any longer.”

The comment caught him by surprise. In order to give himself time, he stripped off his gloves and hooked them in his belt.
