Teaser 2 - My Mistake

  

Excerpt-

When he came back around to the front of the barn, she was sitting on top of a bale of hay, holding up a brown paper back with a grease stain on the bottom. Mooch, traitor that he was, perched at her feet, looking up at her adoringly, waiting for her to drop the bag.


“Mama sent some chicken and biscuits.”


He grunted an acknowledgment, and pulled his hat lower over his eyes so he didn't have to see the pain in hers.


She stood, setting the bag down next to her, and sauntered over to the stall where he was spreading fresh straw.


“What’s wrong?”


He couldn't think of the words to say to her. Everything that came to mind was wrong, and Brent knew that there was no way to have this conversation without hurting her. But he had to, or else he would end up hurting her worse in the long run.


As he kicked straw around the floor of the stall, he knew he was being stupid. For the last two weeks, all he’d talked about was how badly he wanted her to stay with him. And now he was about to do this…


He finally stopped when she said, “Brent. You’re scaring me. Is this about me not being able to have kids?”


“No.” Brent brushed past her to go to the feed room. Rattling the bucket brought in the mare, an enormous equine with a shaggy coat and bones showing through loose skin. She followed him into the stall, as he emptied the bucket into her feed trough, and then started pulling the injections from his pockets and preparing them silently.


When he had the first one ready, he finally got the guts to raise his head and look at Casey and deliver the brilliant line he’d spent the past ten minutes coming up with. “I need to think about some stuff.”


Her mouth dropped, and Brent lowered his head to the mare’s shoulder. While she was distracted, eating, he pinched some skin between his gloved fingers and stuck in the needle, pushing the plunger.


Brent had no idea what happened next. All he was aware of was a swift intake of breath, before he saw a wall of brown crush into him, then a jumble of whinnies, a frantic woof, a shrill scream, some clatters, then hoofs aimed at his chest, before blackness took over.

My Review
I received this book from the touring host for an honest review. 
The book started off with recently divorced Stacey that watched a man working on a roof; relaxing at her mother’s home. While ogling and undressing this man for the last four days she thought he looked familiar, but couldn’t place him. Her thoughts very brazen as she thought about all the things she wants to do to him; wishing him to come over. He became aware that he was watched and finally made the connection when he looked in her direction waved and then continued working.
While she was busy daydreaming, a knock on the door brought her back to reality, when she opened it there stood her high school crush, Brent; the same guy from the roof. 
From here on the story picked up pace and the heat sensors rocketed between them; finding each other after so many years. There were many unresolved issues between them that caused some tension; with more added problems as they got to know each other very intimately. Heating the sheets and barn to blistering hot. 
Brent, range owner, a sizzling hot and very demanding cowboy; was specializing in the rehabilitation of Horses. They discovered how their decisions had almost cost them each other, but they had a second change and had to work through the baggage. As the story progressed they managed against odds to work through all the obstacles.
This is a well written erotic romance very believable with strong character’s that had integrity and back bone, which made this a very good read.


Well done Anne Conley, very hot but a beautiful romance which I enjoyed.
