Excerpt:
Brent had spent the morning in a temper, snapping at Kip and
yelling at the cattle. Spurring his horse forward, then jerking the bit to make
it turn or stop. Kip watched him with a worried expression but didn’t say
anything. Brent knew that Christy was to return on the train to Topeka the
following day and he felt powerless to do anything about it. She was so
beautiful that he became almost tongue-tied when he was around her. His heart
beat rapidly and his face grew flushed and his words came out all wrong. It
seemed everything he said upset her one way or the other and he was frustrated
with how everything was turning out. He had been so happy to stand beside her
at the courthouse and marry her, imagining how their life might be when they
returned to the farmhouse. But the ride home had gone awry when a snake had
caused the horse to rear, and everything had gone from bad to worse since then.
When Christy emerged from the house with a packed lunch for them,
Brent had felt the trembling of his nerves begin the moment he saw her. They
were sitting close together on a small blanket under the shade of a majestic
tree when a breeze blew a strand of curls against her white neck. Brent could
think of nothing else other than kissing her skin where the stray curl swayed.
