After feeding the dogs and making sure they were settled in the barn, Alana retreated to her room. Alone. But her mind hadn’t let her sleep. Instead, it kept replaying memories of that night in Colorado, as well as that kiss they’d shared in the yard, creating a never-ending loop. And to make matters worse, the latest blasted kiss had been even better than those she remembered.

After tossing and turning and pounding her fist into her pillow a hundred times trying her best to get comfortable, she’d finally dozed off around two, although she still hadn’t gotten any real rest. Just knowing that the gorgeous hunk was only a few steps down the hall, stretched out on the guest bed, all tall and buff and sexy, had her hormones running amok.

No wonder she’d lost her head over him in Colorado. And if he hadn’t come to his senses first, she might have done it again last night. He’d barely placed his lips on hers when memories of their lovemaking in his hotel room had exploded in her mind, and she’d been sorely tempted to take him by the hand, lead him into the house and straight to her bedroom.

I can’t remember if there’s someone else in my life, he’d said, but I don’t think we should complicate things by making love again until I know for sure.

The truth of that had been staggering, but she’d had to agree. Their chemistry might be off the charts, but that didn’t mean anything until they both learned who he really was. Heck, she didn’t even know his last name! And try as she might, she couldn’t still the little voice at the back of her mind that kept asking, Is there another woman in his life?

As all the insecurities that had plagued her over her first twenty years popped up, she batted them down in a game of whack-a-mole, determined to come out a permanent winner.

Finally, around nine o’clock, she got out of bed and took a shower. Now, as she stood in front of the full-length bedroom mirror and tried to zip up her jeans to no avail, she grimaced and gave up.

“That’s it,” she muttered. So much for leaving the top button undone and hiding her growing girth with a baggy shirt or blouse. The gap in her waistband was going to be too difficult to cover before she knew it. And that meant she couldn’t hide it from Clay much longer. She’d have to tell him before he figured it out on his own. At the rate her belly was expanding, she’d better do it soon—like in the next day or so. All she had to do was find the right words to say, gather the courage to say them and then face the consequences.

In the meantime... She blew out a ragged sigh. She’d put off the inevitable for as long as she could. As much as she hated to tap into her limited savings account, she’d have to bite the financial bullet and buy a few more suitable outfits.
