Love strikes when it strikes, right?

Yeah right. I never believed that and planned to move on…

So I went to pick up my foster kid I decided to adopt. I had the papers, but I hadn’t expected the cowboy that gets in my way.

Carter had been best man at the kid’s parents wedding.

And until recently he’d been overseas, serving the country.

And my new daughter prefers his ranch.

I should just leave. The caseworkers have no clear answer for me. But those kisses under the bright moon send sweet tingles on my lips.

And the boots he bought me are wanting to knock with his.

None of this was planned. But I’m stalling to flirt and staying to find out what happens next.

But I’m not ready to put my romantic heart on the line, right? I never saw Carter coming and never imagined what happened next.
