MAXWELL

TRUE TO HIS word, Terry had dropped off package after package, filling Micah’s small space with so many clothes that I wasn’t sure how I’d manage to get them upstairs. So while Micah had joined his family in getting things ready at the barn, I rummaged through the clothes to find something suitable to wear. Apparently jeans wouldn’t do at this particular event, which was surprising to me, considering the venue, but after too many hours in casual attire, I was more than ready to look like my usual self again. Or as close to it as I could get. I had no idea what Micah had done with the suit I’d come here in, but then, maybe that would be too much for a night like tonight.

A dance…in a barn. That wasn’t something that would usually be up my alley, but I couldn’t stop thinking about what Micah had said earlier. You’re dancing with me. So get ready to be swept off your feet.

Damn, I’d never really been attracted to the tall, hulking lumberjack type before, but this forced time and proximity with Micah was making me see and feel things I never had before.

Or maybe it’s the company I’m keeping…

I walked over to the small window in my room and looked out at the farm below. Micah and his siblings were outside buzzing around the place getting it ready for tonight’s dance, and I had to admit, I was happy to be inside as opposed to out there.

The snow had started falling on our drive home from town, and as I stared down at the Nobles shoveling the path up to the barn for the umpteenth time, I couldn’t help but wonder what poor bastard was going to be on shovel duty tonight.

I scanned the property, searching out the man that I couldn’t seem to get out of my head, and when I spotted Micah standing on a ladder by the barn door hanging a string of lights, my heart began to thump a little harder.

This was crazy. I didn’t even know the guy, and let’s be real, we hadn’t exactly been on the best terms since I accidentally stranded myself at his house. But between his offering me a place to stay despite my wanting to acquire his land, and today
