Book Blurb:
Jeffery Young
is tired of women and their games. His son’s mother did enough damage to his
heart to last a lifetime. Now, he had to deal with the architect helping the
land developers tear up the local ranches for their houses. Not on his watch.
Terri Kennedy had her own plans. As the architect for a large land development
in Bandera Texas, the deal would put her business on the map, but dealing with
the stubborn, bullheaded male from the local ranch didn’t come with her job
description. Maybe staying on their guest ranch would give her some clues as
how to handle Mr. Stubborn Jackass. Will the secrets she’s harboring keep him
from getting close? Can he learn to trust women again or should be play the
game to find out what’s she’s up to?
Teaser:
“What
the hell?” Jeffery Young slammed on the brakes and pulled his beat up Chevy
truck over to the side of the road.
“Where
we goin’, Daddy?”
“To
the south pasture, but I need to figure out what these people are doin’ on our
land, buddy. You stay here.” He hopped out of the truck but left it running to
keep it cool in the interior for his son. Three-year-old Ben loved to go with
his dad on ranch business. Even though summer had officially come to an end,
the days still got hot in Bandera, Texas. Today they’d planned to check on the
water trough in the south pasture. He needed to patch it before winter set in.
“Okay,”
Ben said, swinging his small booted feet.
Jeff
hopped out of the truck, slamming the door behind him. “Who the hell are you?
What are you doin’ on Thunder Ridge land?”
A
petite blonde stood next to a larger guy he recognized from the land surveyors
office in town. He noticed right away how her hair caught the sunlight,
bouncing it off the curls when she turned to face him. Green eyes the color of
spring grass gazed at him behind the small round glasses perched on her nose.
“Excuse
me?”
“What
are you doin’ on my land?”
“Surveying.
What does it look like?”
The
woman sounded way too damned perky for his taste. “Who are you?” He turned to
face the man from town. “George, what’s goin’ on here?”
“We’re
doin’ a land survey, Jeff.” George motioned to the woman next to him. “This
here is Terri Kennedy.”
“Nice
to meet you.” She held out her hand, but he ignored it with a scowl.
“No
one ordered a survey of our land. You don’t need to be on our property.”
“It’s
not for Thunder Ridge. It’s for the new development.” George looked
uncomfortable as he shifted back and forth on his feet.
“Get
the hell off my property,” Jeff snarled. “We ain’t supportin’ the developers
takin’ over the ranch land out here.”
“We
have a right to use this road to survey the property boundaries. It’s a county
road.”
“Not
as long as you’re off the blacktop, it ain’t. It’s Young property.”
“Is
he correct, Mr. Scott? Is this private property beyond the blacktop?”
“Yes,
ma’am.”
“Well
then, we shall move to the blacktop area.” She stomped her booted feet as she
moved twenty feet up the road. Her curvy little ass bounced with each step,
emphasizing the cute roundness much to his chagrin. “Now, we can continue where
we left off. I’m sure you can make the adjustments to the measurements.”
“Yes,
ma’am.”
The
little smirk on her kissable lips drove his anger higher. He didn’t want to
notice anything about the woman, but here he stood watching everything about
her.
