This cowboy can handle the heat...
For cowboy and firefighter Jake Ramsay, Christmas at Thunder Mountain Ranch is all about family, food and celebration. Okay, and maybe a chance to run into his high school sweetheart, singer Amethyst Ferguson. Six months ago, they had a scorching-hot, wild reunion...and this cowboy can’t wait for another chance to play with fire.
Now their sexual attraction is an insatiable, five-alarm blaze that’s only grown more addictive. But Amethyst has career dreams that don’t include Jackson Hole, Wyoming, or a “relationship.” Whatever this is between them, however real it feels, it can never become anything more. Once Christmas is over, Amethyst must walk away...even if they both get burned.
“You have your fantasies and I have mine...”
“You’re even prettier than I remembered.” Jake swallowed. “We stripped down so fast and then didn’t put on clothes until morning.”
Amethyst slipped her arms around his neck. “I couldn’t get enough of you.”
“We couldn’t get enough of each other.” As he caressed her, he leaned down, his lips nearly making contact. “And this would be the moment when normally I’d kiss you and thrust my tongue deep into your inviting wet mouth. But I can’t.”
Desire poured like lava through her veins. “There are other places you can kiss me.”
“I know. That was my plan.” His voice was thick with anticipation. Then he dropped to his knees and braced his hands on either side of her shoulders. “I loved having you tell me what you like. Tell me again.”
His voice grew husky. “Hearing you say what you want gets me hot.”
Season’s greetings from Thunder Mountain Ranch! I see that the big tree is up in the living room and somebody’s stringing Christmas lights along the front porch. Hey, who’s that pulling into the drive in a big black truck? Must be Jake Ramsey! He’s taken a few days off from his firefighting job in Jackson Hole so he can spend the holidays with his foster parents.
You’ll enjoy meeting Jake, because a cowboy who’s also a firefighter has hero potential coming out his ears. Think about it. He chose a profession that involves charging into burning buildings to save people and animals. That takes courage and compassion, plus a lot of lovely muscles. Oh, and whenever he’s not in uniform, he wears jeans, boots and a Stetson. It’s no wonder Amethyst Ferguson wants some quality time with Jake while he’s in town!
Welcome to another sexy adventure in the Thunder Mountain Brotherhood series. If you’ve read the preceding books, you’ll be excited to get a glimpse of some of your favorite characters gathered around the Christmas tree. But if you’re new to the series, never fear! I’ll make sure you won’t be confused about who’s who and what’s what. It’ll be a memorable holiday at the ranch, and I can’t wait to share it with you!
Merry Christmas to all,
Cowboy Unwrapped
