Оглавление“Laney, I want you to meet the town’s new deputy sheriff, Nick Rogers.”
His handshake was firm, his skin warm and dry. His dark-eyed gaze made the already hot day sizzle.
“You’re new to the area?”
“I’m adjusting,” he said, never taking his eyes off her. He had the kind of face that she’d thought only existed in the movies. Rugged and yet as handsome as any she’d ever seen with dark hair and blue eyes. But it was the way he stood, his head cocked to one side, an air of confidence about him that drew her like a moth to flame.
“You should come to my cousin’s engagement party.”
He smiled. “Thank you, but I really couldn’t intrude.”
“It’s no intrusion,” Laney said. “That’s the way things are done around here. Haven’t you seen the baby shower and anniversary notices in the local newspapers, inviting the whole county? Welcome to small-town America.”
“A lot different from Houston,” Nick said.
“Everyone will be there. Wear your dancing boots.”
Nick met Laney’s gaze. “Save me a dance?”
