I'm so excited to bring you the first in my new novella trilogy - Shadow Maverick Ranch.
I love sexy cowboys. I love reading about sexy cowboys. So naturally, it was just a matter of time before I'd create a few of my own. I hope you enjoy the Mathis men as much as I do.
To start off the trilogy...I give you Gavin Mathis.
Gavin Mathis is ready to settle down. He’s quit his job and
come home to Shadow Maverick Ranch to do just that. Too bad his decision caused
his beautiful former colleague to lose her job.
Lauren Delgado is a no-nonsense businesswoman. She’s had a
crush on Gavin for years, but has a strict “hand-off” policy with the men she
works with. When her life takes an unexpected turn, there’s nothing to stop her
from accepting his invitation to Galveston Island, where the policy is
definitely hands-on.

Excerpt:
Gavin reached the
shore and dragged his tired limbs from the water. He snatched up his clothes
and walked, naked and unconcerned, up to the house. His legs protested as he
climbed the stairs to the porch. Maybe he had overdone it a little, but he
resisted falling into one of the deck chairs, instead dropping his stuff
outside the door as he slid it open. A quick shower to rinse the Gulf from his
skin, maybe a beer or two, and he was done.
As he breeched the
threshold, a movement to the left caught his attention and he turned,
completely gobsmacked by what he found.
His weakened limbs
found the renewed strength to hold him in place, standing completely still so
as not to shatter the vision before him.
She was here. She
was actually here.
Gavin watched in
utter fascination as Lauren slipped the shirt from her shoulders. Inch by
gorgeous inch, she unknowingly revealed her back to him. The creamy skin made
his mouth water. His body tensed and he yearned to reach out, to touch, to
tease, to pleasure.
Obviously, she
thought she was alone. He should make his presence known. Shouldn’t stand here
and watch as she unhooked her bra. And definitely shouldn’t watch as she …
sweet mercy, was she caressing her—fuck.
A flash of lust
burned through him. Gavin licked his lips, his tongue suddenly desperate for
something to do. His gaze focused on the movement of her arms as she cupped her
breasts. He’d give anything to know what, who she was thinking about right now.
He wanted it to be him, hoped it was him. It was wrong, so wrong, yet he
remained still, transfixed, waiting to see what she did next.
A tiny sound
emerged from her throat, and his cock hardened in response. Her arms dropped.
So did his gaze. The shimmering blue panties she wore didn’t quite cover her
butt cheeks and he groaned as she bent to pick up what appeared to be a bikini
top. Not panties then. Jesus, she was changing into a bathing suit. Not
performing some kind of erotic strip tease.
Lauren spun,
slapping her palms to her breasts. Not fast enough to keep him from seeing her
tawny nipples, both drawn up to tight little buds.
Her gaze drifted
over him, lingering over his chest before heading lower. Her eyes widened as
she took in the rest of him. “W-what are you doing here?”
He made no attempt
to cover himself. “It’s my house.” Simple, to the point. Truth. And all he was
capable of at the moment.
Her fingers
tightened, her breasts threatening to spill from the confines of her small,
delicate hands. Hands he’d like to replace with his own.
“That’s not what I
meant. You said you were leaving tonight.”
He nodded slowly.
“Yes, and I did. You never asked me where I was going.”
“So, you asked me
to come, but thought I wouldn’t if I knew you’d be here?”
He could
practically hear the gears turning in her head. And he appreciated the fact she
was pleased with what she saw, but she was making coherent thought damn near
impossible.
“Staring at it like
that is only going to make it worse, sweetheart,” he said gently.
Her eyes snapped
up, a light blush staining her cheeks. “Like what?”
“Like it’s candy.”
She was killing him. He couldn’t remember ever being so hard. The stubborn set
of her chin, the darkening of her eyes, everything about her intrigued him,
called to him.
“I need a shower.”
The saltwater from his swim was already starting to make his skin itch, and he
needed to get the hell away before he tossed her to the couch and fucked her
blind.
He looked her up
and down again, taking full advantage of his first opportunity to see her body,
the curves that had tempted him for so long. She was even more beautiful than
he’d imagined. Lean, muscular legs, rounded hips and an ass he’d like to sink his
hands into. Breasts too big for her smaller hands, but perfect for his.
“Unless you’d like
to join me, I’d suggest you put on something more substantial.” He glanced
pointedly the apex of her legs. “Because knowing I’m one scrap of material from
having you naked is driving me crazy.” As if she hadn’t seen the rock-hard
evidence of his arousal already.
Slowly, her lips
curled upward. “Well, I seem to remember you telling me I could help myself to
anything I wanted.” She dropped her hands, baring her nipples for his view.
“So, yes, Gavin. I think a shower sounds perfect.”
