She’s never been kissed. He’s a cocky cowboy with notches in his bedpost. When a wedge is driven between them, she tries to walk away, but will he let her? Then he finds out something about her that makes her worth fighting for.


Life became more complicated, and I didn’t even notice. Not until two decades pass and it seems like everyone has moved on except me. Nobody told me that this part isn’t normal. And nobody ever tried to make me feel like it wasn’t, until I wanted something I couldn’t have. I wanted it so badly I made up lies to get me there. Wyatt is the only one that sees through it all. He’s the only one that can see the truth and it terrifies me. Until it doesn’t. Until the lies become the truth and there’s no turning back. And only Wyatt knows the difference.


***


I’m not gonna lie. It’s completely messed up. Liz is off bounds as far as my brother Billy is concerned. Just because she works for him doesn’t mean that he calls all the shots. I’m just as much a part of this family as he is. And when he finds out what I already know, he’s got no leg to stand on, either. Nobody can give her what she needs until one person cuts her loose. And that will never happen, not as far as Liz can see. But when push comes to shove, and the accident happens, I’m in more than I ever thought I would be in, and I hold the spade, in more ways than one. Problem is, I’m not sure if Liz is ready to set it free, the spade, that is. And then we end up using a spade to dig...six feet under.
