Synopsis:
Kenleigh Briggs suffered debilitating depression at the
age of twelve after losing both parents in a tragic house fire. Her aunt
assumed guardianship and forced Kenleigh to learn how to horseback
ride. She soon developed a bond with the horses that helped her work out her
depression.
Seven years later, young Kenleigh is now a sophomore at the University of Texas, San Antonio. During summer break, she arrives at Serenity Falls, a horse ranch devoted to helping children with disabilities learn to ride. She loves watching the kids build the same healing bonds with the horses that she did. She really finds satisfaction in paying it forward.
Wesley Adams, the son of the ranch’s owners, is a professional bull rider who lives in Dallas. With his blond hair, Caribbean blue eyes, and tattooed muscular body, he is epitome of every woman’s dream. Wesley is good guy, but he has a bit of a rowdy side.
Kenleigh has learned to take life head on. She no longer holds back, and seizes every opportunity that she has to make herself happy. Content with the way her life is going, Kenleigh never expected Wesley. He takes Kenleigh on the ride of her life, until tragedy strikes again. As Kenleigh and Wesley discover a love like they have never known, will they also discover the best parts of life they are missing?
Excerpt:
Instead of waiting for him to close the distance between
us, I take the lead. I place a hand on his chest walking him backwards through
the spray of the shower, his back collides with the wall. Our clothes cling to
us like a second skin. I can feel my hair sticking to the sides of my face. My
eyes search his face. I watch as the water turns to light brown from mixing
with the mud as it cascades down his face, caressing his perfectly shaped
cheekbones, nose, lips, and jaw line. I grip his shirt tightly in my hands as I
lean into him. His strong hands come up, cupping my face. My eyes flutter close
at the contact. “I’m so sorry Kenleigh. You have no idea,” he mumbles peppering
kisses all over my face. “Look at me please,” he whispers against my lips.
“I’m not a man who gets
scared very often, but I was going crazy out there thinking that you and I were
done. Especially when we just got started.” He leans down, resting his forehead
against mine. He closes his eyes for a moment taking a deep breath. When he
opens them he adds, “I don’t know what it is that we’re doing, but I like it. I
feel free, liberated, happy when I’m with you. You make me want to be a better
man. I can’t explain my feelings, but I know they’re growing stronger and
stronger for you each day, and I do not want that feeling to go away.”
I’m stunned speechless
by his confession. The more and more time we spend together I can feel myself
falling for him more and more, but I didn’t know he was feeling it too. Tilting
my head up, I whisper against his lips, “I feel it too.”
A tentative smile pulls
at my lips as he flashes me the brightest smile I think I’ve ever seen. “Yeah?
Really? I mean you don’t ha—”
“Just shut up and kiss
me,” I say with a chuckle cutting him off.
His hands go to my ass
lifting me off the bottom of the shower as he spins around pinning me against
the wall. With a mischievous smile his lips descend on mine as he says, “Yes
ma’am.”
Within seconds, his
tongue invades my mouth seeking and exploring every inch. Our hands search each
other’s bodies as we tear at each other’s clothes. In no time we’re naked and
I’m gasping as he slips inside me. It takes no time for me to adjust to his
size. My fingers thread through his hair, gently tugging it. I groan loudly as
he increases his thrusts. My body sings with pleasure when he begins sucking
and nipping my neck, collarbone, and that sweet spot behind my ear. I’m blinded
by lust. Our sweat mixes in with the water as it glides down our bodies.
“Wes…I’m so close…” I pant out.
“Fuck baby…just a little
bit longer…” he murmurs in my ear.
He begins a ravenous
pace, pounding into me as I meet him thrust for thrust. Just as I explode
calling out his name, he pulls out, coming all over my stomach. I can’t help
but look down. I’m completely entranced by the sight of his hot, white, thick
cum pumping onto me. Still heaving deep breaths, I hear him say, “I’m sorry. I
didn’t know what else to do. I got caught up in the moment and I didn’t know if
you were on any type of bir—”
“Stop,” I say cutting
him off yet again.
“Huh?”
I look up from my
stomach to him and back down in amazement before I reply, “That was the hottest
thing I have ever seen.” A cocky grin tugs at the corners of his lips. I roll
my eyes at him. “Shut up.” A chuckle escapes the both of us at the same time as
he leans in and kisses me.
“What have I done to
you?” He asks.
“I don’t know, but
whatever it is, don’t stop,” I reply dropping my legs from around his waist. I
look up meeting his eyes. “And just so you know, I’m on birth control. I have
been for a long time.”
He arches an eyebrow
silently asking me to explain further. “My periods.”
“All right. You don’t
have to explain any further,” he says holding his hands up and shaking his
head. “Let me help you get rinsed off,” he says huskily as he pulls me flush
against him into the spray of the water. Before I can say anything a knock
sounds on the door.
“When you two are done,
I’d like a word with the both of you please.” Oh my gosh, Mrs. Sandy. My head
drops to his chest as I screw my eyes shut tightly. Heat consumes my face from
the embarrassment that I know is going to come when I have to face her.
