Opis

When Emily first moved to the farming community where Brett had lived his whole life, he thought of her as just a kid who had NO idea how to act in farming country. A twerp in need of protection and guidance. A job he took upon himself to provide. As the years moved on, Emily became less and less of an outcast, and went more and more out of her way to dress provocatively and flirt relentlessly with Brett. He was pretty sure the kid was only trying to copy what she had seen some of their mutual guy pals do when trying to pick up the opposite sex... basically trying her training wheels out with him. It wasn't until one day, she had gone too far and he had tried to warn her where her actions would lead, that he felt the need to prove it to her, and pulled her in for a kiss meant only to teach her a lesson. Instead, that kiss informed him of something he had managed to miss somehow... Emily had grown up when he wasn't paying attention. She was this hot little firecracker, who responded to his kiss and his touch, and who made him feel things he had never felt before. She swore that she loved him, and he wanted to believe her, because once he had that first taste of her, he wanted more.... A LOT more. However, was what she was feeling for him REALLY love, or was she only fooling herself? Would she break his heart if he let himself fall for her the way he was inclined to do? Could he really even stop the love he felt for her once the idea started to settle in his heart? He was more convinced than ever that Emily was his destiny.... She was the one for him... no doubt about it. Only one problem. He's not so sure that she really does return his feelings. The more time he spends with her, the more positive he is that all she really feels for him is an out of control crush. After all, how could anyone as incredible as this woman ever love a rough and ready cowboy with nothing to give her but his love?
