MANDY

After we dropped Bear off at Nick’s cabin, I settled into my seat. I lowered the window, letting in the cool air that always carried a fresh hint of pine, to fill the cab’s heated interior. I stared at the scenic landscape, admiring the hilly backdrop lined with walls of spruce trees and intermingled with tall ash. I’d made this drive countless times and never failed to be inspired by its astonishing beauty.

It didn’t take a genius to know Nick didn’t need more shingles to finish his roofing project. The proof was stacked on the edge of the porch. I wasn’t sure why he’d insisted on driving me to Hanford, but I didn’t argue when he helped me into his truck. Truth was I enjoyed spending time with him. I looked forward to our daily routine and found any excuse possible to be around him. I was in a constant state of awareness whenever I was near him. I’d been aroused from the moment he’d jumped off the roof and wrapped his arms around me.

Telling Nick I hadn’t been able to reach Reese was the truth, sort of. I knew he wouldn’t have a problem with me leaving, so I’d left a message on his voice mail. The trip to Hanford was going to take a couple of hours, and stopping by to see Nick and asking him to relay the message was the only excuse I could come up with to see him before I left.

Selfishly, I couldn’t get enough of Nick and was thrilled that he wanted to spend time with me. Part of me wanted to embrace the relationship, to throw caution to the wind, so to speak. Another part, the part that feared rejection and was afraid things would end badly, that one day I’d show up at his cabin and he’d be gone, fueled my reluctance. I didn’t want to go through the same kind of heartache I’d suffered when Craig had cheated on me. Being cheated on and having someone leave weren’t exactly the same thing, but enduring the pain and loneliness afterward would be no different.

I didn’t understand why I was attracted to Nick’s animalistic behavior and gruffness. It was so different from any of the men I’d ever dated, yet it appealed to me on so many levels. Even when he’d acted feral during our first encounter, I’d been drawn to him.

Contemplating thoughts about Nick had my gaze wandering in his direction. I couldn’t help admiring his profile or the way the breeze gently teased the ends of his dark hair. There was a casual ease in the way he gripped the steering wheel and maneuvered the truck along the winding road. Living in the mountain wilderness suited him well, as if he’d been born to it and this was where he was meant to be. Berkley had voiced her opinion more than once about her concerns that he’d leave when his year ended. My friend wasn’t the only one who hoped he’d make his stay permanent.
