A short western erotica of around 13,000 words
Suzi Calworth has to find the courage to face the man she loves and tell him she’s pregnant with another man’s child.
Clint Malone loves Suzi and regrets driving her away. Yet, can he tell her the truth about himself and risk losing her forever?
Can they both find the strength to reveal their secrets and let love heal their heartache?
Excerpt:
For two years, she’d made herself available to the
man. He walked through her door, and she put her world on hold to please him.
Mistakenly, she had believed he cared.
“That was until the beginning of the year,” she
muttered and recalled how much she dreaded telling him about the special
assignment she’d been giving. She had fixed him his favorite dinner and taken
extra care with her appearance to avoid an unpleasant scene. Yet as the evening
wore on, she had lost her nerve, and had unintentionally blurted her news. “I
have to move to Oklahoma City for a few months.”
He shoved her grandmother’s fine china aside and
shrugged as if unconcern by the forced separation. “If that’s what you need to
do.”
The mashed potato in her mouth turned to sawdust and
she washed it down with a long swig of wine. The special treat for the evening
didn’t even tempt her palate or dull the ache in her chest. “Then you really
don’t mind?”

“Why should I? I have no hold on you. We’re just
having fun here. No strings attached.” He scooted back his chair and rolled
onto the expensive heels of his boots. “We can always get together when you
come home for long weekends or after the project is over.”
The shock of his words still vibrated through her
chest. Bile backed into her throat. She clutched her hands into fists and
repeated the same words she had yelled at him at the time, “Why you sorry son
of a bitch!”
Unable to sit still, she thrust away from her desk.
How could he think so little of her or the time they shared together? Didn’t he
have a clue how much she’d loved him?
Still loved him?
“Get over it, it’s a
moot point.” They had no future together—not then, not now, not ever.Amazon - http://www.amazon.com/Hog-Tied-and-Branded-ebook/dp/B006JGFCNO/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1323361988&sr=1-1
