Hot Cowboy Nights #2

Casablanca
One unforgettable night
can last a lifetime...
Janice Combs has adored Dirk Knowlton from the rodeo sidelines ever since their high school days, but how could she ever compete with Rachel, the all-American rodeo queen, while mired ankle-deep in manure?
Playful banter was all Janice and Dirk had, and then he up and joined the Marines. Janice thought she'd moved on until one stormy night when he shows up at her door. Dirk's dripping wet, needing a place to stay, and reminding Janice why she could never settle for just any ol' cowboy...

Excerpt from SLOW HAND, book one of the Hot Cowboy Nights series, coming November 4, 2015:
He went to work on his
shirt buttons. His collar was soon wide open revealing a generous show of
muscular chest that make her hands itch to rip it off him. She diverted her
gaze and curled her itchy hands by her sides.
“Have no fear, cowboy,”
Nikki replied in a tone meant to disguise the warm flush that had come over
her. “I corralled all my wild impulses long ago.”
“Did you, now?” He still
stood in doorway, head cocked. “Somehow, I think you may have missed a few
strays.”
“Maybe I need to make
myself clearer. I have an aversion to cocky cowboys.”
Just keep telling
yourself that, Nikki. Maybe if you repeat it often enough it’ll become true.
“Is that so?” His brows
flew upward. “I can’t say I ever met a woman with an actual aversion to me.”
“Don’t take it
personally. It’s nothing against you in particular, but to your type.”
“And what do you think
you know about my type?”
“Since I don’t have a
pole handy, enough to keep you at arms-length. Besides that, this whole line of
conversation is entirely inappropriate in light of professional ethics, don’t
you think? You are my attorney, after all.”
“Well, darlin’,” he
scratched his unshaven jaw, “there’s a little hitch to that.”
“What do you mean? You
said you’d help me.”
“And I will, but you
can’t engage my professional services until I know who you are.”
“I’ve told you who I
am!” she insisted.
“Sweetheart, I’m a
lawyer, and according to the law, your claim don’t weigh without
authentication.”
“Authentication?”
“Proof.”
“So what are you saying?
That you don’t believe me?”
“I’m not saying that at
all. Only that our professional relationship will commence once you get your
I.D. In the interim,” His gaze slid over her in a way that threatened to melt
her insides, “you’d best find yourself a nice, long, sturdy pole.” **** SLOW
