Big Bossy Cowboy

“No one warned me that the cowboys here are crazy.” I roll my office chair back and stand.

Ignoring the insane man behind me, I stalk across the floor to the filing cabinet.

Tabbing through the folders, I grab the one marked with Greer’s name. “I’m checking your medical history. Clearly, you’ve had a head injury at some point.”

He pulls his phone from his shirt pocket and flicks his fingers across the screen. “Princess cut or oval?”

I sigh in exasperation. “The only ring I want is a yeast ring. ”

Something in his gaze sparkles. “You like donuts?”

I make a noise of disgust as I think about Spencer, my ex-boyfriend. Even when I was skinny, I was too fat for him.

After my asthma worsened, I had to do multiple rounds of steroids. The weight gain was sudden and unexpected, but I could breathe.

“Yeah, yeah, it’s funny. The fat girl likes donuts.” My voice comes out bitter, and I hate this. I hate that he knows he hit a sore point.

Greer snarls like an animal deprived of prey. He’s around the desk and crowding my space until I step back against the filing cabinet.

He stares down at me, intensity burning in his gaze. “I love your body. These curves are a fuckin’ masterpiece. Now, who the hell made you feel bad about them? Give me a name.”

★★★★★ I always love getting to revisit Courage County and see more couples finding their HEA. This author does an amazing job bringing together all the different stories that take place in this fictional town. - Chelle, Reviewer
