One look at the cowboy was all it took.

A punch to the gut, that was what it felt like. And didn’t Diana know that feeling already. The cute guy takes her breath away, she thinks, “oh, this could be the one,” and then he turns out to be shallow, an idiot, a moocher or just a waste of space.

Oh, but this guy was different, her gut said. That was what it always said. The tortured artist, the leather-clad bad boy, the heavily tattooed drummer—Diana’s gut did like the clichés. This time it was a cowboy.

Not happening this time. She had to wait for the Fairlane’s obscure gasket, and when it arrived, she’d find someone to sublet her sublet and she’d be back on the road. She’d missed the antique car show in Oregon, but if she headed down to California, there would be other rallies. Or maybe she’d just go back to Tennessee. What she wouldn’t do was swoon over a cowboy.

“Hey, Carrie, okay if you take Table Six for me?” Diana tried to keep her tone casual, like this was no big deal to her.

Carrie tucked her pad into her apron pocket. She looked at her station, then over at Diana’s table. “Why should I? He’s been in before—barely looks up. Never orders more than a sandwich and iced tea. No dessert. He’s a generous tipper, but you won’t get rich off that order. Relief to see him sitting on your side for once.”

Diana frowned. She was new—this was only her second week—but surely she’d have noticed him if he’d been in before.

“You sure?” Diana didn’t want to beg, so she kept her voice level. She really wanted to avoid temptation. Even from here, his laser-light eyes seemed to be heating her up from the inside.

“He’s at your table, honey. Better take his order now if you want any tip at all.”

Diana rushed off to take Six’s order. Be professional, do your job, don’t notice how cute he is.

“Hi.” Diana took a deep breath, trying to slow down and not seem like an idiot. “What can I get you?”

He looked up. It was like he’d dressed to maximize his effect on her gut. Crisp blue chambray shirt, clean blue jeans and a shine to his boots. Tiny creases of paler skin radiated from the outside corners of his eyes, as though he squinted all the time he was outdoors. His oak-brown hair, cut short and neatly combed, glinted in the sunlight streaming through the window.

Diana was in danger of melting from the heat puddling inside her. He had broad shoulders, lean hips. Not too tall, but then she wasn’t large herself. If she squinted she could imagine him naked, with a tan line around his hips from going shirtless in loose jeans...

“BLT, whole wheat toast and a glass of iced tea. Thanks.” He waited for her to write that down. “What brings you to Laramie in March?”

She shifted on her feet. Chatting with him just turned up the thermostat, made her nipples itchy and her clit ache a little.
