Melody:
I never expected forever when I married Lucas all those years ago. It was a dare, encouraged by one too many vodka shots. It’s surprising neither of us annulled the marriage. But the truth is, I can’t be a wife, not to any man, not even to sweet, wonderful Lucas, thanks to the monsters of my past that still haunt me to this day.
By some miracle, when I was desperate to save my brother, Lucas reappeared in my life. Lucas, who’d helped me so many times in the six months I’d shared his home as a sixteen-year-old foster kid. I had little choice but to take his offer—move with him to his Wyoming ranch and be his wife, for real this time. Lucas doesn’t know the reason I need the money, and it’s a secret I can’t tell.
Lucas:
Running into Melody in an Iowa bar seemed like fate. And when I heard she’s in trouble, I have to help her, because I’ve always felt protective over Melody. In my heart, she’s always been mine.
Now, that she’s with me at Devil Creek Ranch, I find it impossible to ignore the feelings I’ve carried for her since I was a seventeen-year-old kid. I want a wife, a partner in life as well as in my bed, but I know Melody is hiding something from me. Something I fear may drive us apart in the end.

Excerpt (PG)
“You’re my wife, Melody. I have a right to
know what’s going on in your life.”
His angry tone added fuel to her rising
temper. She needed an outlet for the mess of emotions she was feeling—guilt,
pain, sadness, confusion. But she had no place to put them except deep inside.
She jumped to her feet, and tried to brush past Lucas to get to her bedroom.
She didn’t want to argue.
“Wait,” he said, grabbing her arm, “we’re not
done here.”
She tried to jerk her arm away but he held
fast.
“Let me go,” she hissed.
“Not until you tell me what’s going on,
Melody.”
“Let me go,” she repeated.
“You will obey me in my own home.”
Obey? She hadn’t agreed to obey anyone.
“I’m not one of your employees, Lucas.”
When she tried to jerk her arm away again,
and he didn’t release her, her temper snapped. She slapped him hard across the
face, the sound of the blow echoing loudly in the room. Lucas’ face turned a
frightening shade of red, and it took Melody several moments to realize what
she’d done.
“So, that’s how it is, is it?” Lucas said
through his teeth.
Fear swept through Melody. He’d kick her out
now. She’d lost any hope of saving her brother’s life.
Lucas bent down, picked her up, and flung her
over his shoulder. Shocked, she squealed as he marched down the hallway and
into her bedroom. He deposited her on her bed, but kept hold of her as he sat
down next to her. The next thing she knew she was draped across his lap, face
down, and bottom up. She sputtered, and tried to wriggle away, but the palm of
his hand came down on her backside in a stinging smack!
