Читать книгу Charm School For Cowboys - Meg Maxwell - Страница 3

Jake walked over and reached up a hand to Emma’s face. He could see this was tearing her in two, breaking her heart.

He took a deep breath. Expelled it. Turned and paced the length of the bedroom. Looked at Emma. Looked out the window. Closed his eyes. Opened them and found her looking at him as though he might need medical attention. Which he might.

He paced some more, then stopped. “Marry me, Emma. We’re both not looking for a real relationship or a real marriage. You’ll save the farm.”

What the hell? Had he just said that? Had he just proposed to Emma?

Good God, he had. Without thinking. Gun to head, what are you going to do, Morrow? Well, this was the answer.

A marriage proposal.

She stared at him. “Jake. You can’t be serious. What could you possibly get out of this?”

“The best cook in Texas?” he said, managing a weak smile.

Had he just said that? What the hell was wrong with him? If anyone needed Emma’s charm school for cowboys, he did. Good Lord.
