Lauren Reynolds wanted
only two things in life—to run her father’s horse breeding business and Colt
Matthews. Fearing Colt would take her position within the family business, she
tried to push him far away from her heart.
When life could no
longer keep Lauren and Colt apart, their two worlds became one. Every second of
every moment, they spent together. Their love bloomed into something neither of
them imagined—a bond so strong Lauren and Colt believed nothing would ever
stand in their way.
However, life threw a
cruel twist into Colt and Lauren’s planned happily ever after. Will fate let
them live out the life they dreamed of, or will one of them be left alone, lost
and angry?
“I’ll spend forever
holding you … even if it’s only in my memory.”
Excerpt
“I’m headed back to
A&M tonight, Lauren. Come with me.”
Pulling back, I looked
into his eyes. They were filled with a passion I’d never seen before. My mouth
opened, but words wouldn’t form. Clearing my throat, I asked, “What are you
saying, Colt?”
If there was one thing
Colt Mathews could do, and do well, was swoon the hell out of me with his
smile. And boy was he swooning me right now. My knees felt weak as Colt flashed
me that smile that I had fallen in love with a few years back. That stupid
crooked smile that I dreamed about every single night.
“I’m asking you to let
me make you mine, Lauren.”
Holy mother of God. Play it cool, Lauren. Play. It. Cool.
Colt wants to make me his!
Swallowing hard, I
asked … again, “What are you saying, Colt?”
Colt chuckled. Pulling
me closer to him, he moved his lips to my ear. “I’ve been wanting to make to
you mine for so long, Lauren. I can’t bare to wait any longer.”
My lips parted open.
“Me … um … I … I’ve never … ahh … what about …” For the love of all things
good. I can’t even form a sentence. My mind was swirling with images of Colt
making love to me. Colt naked. Colt kissing my body. Colt touching my body. My
eyes widened in horror. The one thing I’ve wanted so badly for the last few
years I was about to lose because I can’t form a damn sentence.
Colt’s lifted his hand
and brushed the back of it down my face gently. “I’m scared too, Lauren. You’re
the only woman I’ve ever dreamed of being with.” Closing his eyes for a brief
moment before opening them again, he whispered. “I’ve never been with anyone,
Lauren. My first time I wanted to be with someone I cared about. Someone I
loved.”
Oh. My. Glitter. Swoon alert! We have a major swoon alert. My
legs gave out and Colt grabbed a hold of me. “Lauren, are you okay?” Colt asked
as concern swept over his face.
“You waited for me? I
mean, you’re … a …um? Wait, someone you love?”
Colt pulled me closer
as he nodded. I felt his desire pushing into my stomach. Something washed over
me and I found my senses. Grabbing onto his arms again, I smiled. “I’ve waited
for you too, Colt. Every time I dreamed of being with someone, I dreamt it was
you.”
Taking a few steps
back, Colt winked at me as a wicked grin grew across his face. “Follow my
lead.”
