Jake splashed water on his face and stared in the chipped mirror over the washbasin, droplets dripping off his chin. What did Livy want from him? She’d enjoyed his kisses. No, she’d not only enjoyed them, she’d responded, giving as good as she got.

Then why did she insist she wanted to be friends and nothing more? What made her run like a scared rabbit every time she felt ensnared by the possibility of a relationship with him? Her past? What was she hiding?

He toweled his face, rubbing hard. He hadn’t been searching for love, hadn’t even thought about it. The last two years since his father’s death had been chaotic enough without adding a woman to the mix. His duties as deputy and riding out to the farm to help his ma with the chores barely left time to eat, let alone sleep.

Why did he even want to see more of Livy?

Because the thought of not seeing her turned his stomach into knots.

Thoughts of her filled his every waking moment. He saw her eyes in the blue ribbons bedecking the hats in the millinery shop, her reddish-brown curls in the sunset, heard her laughter in the birds’ singing.

And God help him, since Susie had presented the family with a brand-spanking-new baby boy, he’d even started thinking about a family of his own.

With Livy O’Brien smack-dab in the center of it.
