recently been diagnosed with cancer, throwing Cyn’s heart, as well
as her future plans into turmoil.

Harrington dynasty, Cyn’s life is falling apart. Her mother has
recently been diagnosed with cancer, throwing Cyn’s heart, as well
as her future plans into turmoil.
The last thing Cyn is looking for is Jericho, the quiet, soft-spoken
ranch hand from the McBride place. Between the clinic closing, her
mom’s health, and Cyn’s long-delayed college plans, there are
already too many uncertainties. Could Jericho be the anchor she needs
so desperately as her world falls apart? Or is he just another excuse
not to let go of Peace and move on.

Sliding his hand into the hair at the
back of her neck, he angled her head down toward his, eyes fascinated by her
lips. “Miss Cynthia, may I…”
Cyn had had enough of waiting for her
southern gentleman, leaning in she closed the gap between their lips. Closing
her eyes and letting go of all the reasons she shouldn’t be doing this, she
gave herself to this moment, and to Jericho. His lips were firm and soft, the
hand against her cheek felt callused, but not rough. He gently explored the
contours of her face, shooting fireworks through her heart and, as he pulled
her closer, warming her body until it melted against his. Her hands wandered,
almost instinctively, over the muscled outlines of his chest, delighting in the
contrast between the soft denim shirt and the hot, hard man who wore it.
Jericho growled softly, nipping at her lips in appreciation. She sighed,
opening further to him, asking, although she didn’t quite know what for.
He knew. His hand grasped her head
tighter and his agile tongue slipped between her lips to stroke the roof of her
mouth. One large hand cupped her breast, the soft weight no more than a palmful
for the big cowboy. She gasped when his thumb brushed lightly over her nipple,
making it pebble tightly beneath the soft chiffon.
The giggles of a couple of teenagers
shattered their privacy. Jericho and Cyn looked at each other with
embarrassment, recognizing the same young couple that they had chased out of the
stairwell earlier. “Cynthia, I…” Cyn put a shushing finger over his
lips. “Shush, Jericho,” she said quietly, nodding at the pair of teenagers
peering through the windows of the stairwell door. “I think we’ve given them
quite enough to talk about for now.”
