Excerpt
Teddy Bear lived up to his reputation, causing an enormous commotion as he scrambled backward from the trailer. Once on solid ground, the big horse came to a stop and surveyed his new surroundings, head held high and ears pricked forward. Jewelâs hand on the halter shook as he whinnied loudly, announcing his presence to the other horses.
Her friend Ronnie grinned and gave the horseâs head a scratch. âI think even the brood mares in the back pasture heard you.â
âDo you mind?â Jewel held out the lead rope.
âCome on, big fellow.â
Ronnie led the horse to the stall. With her daughter Ava re-swaddled in the baby wrap, Jewel followed a few minutes later.
After Teddy Bear had spent several minutes inspecting every inch of his new accommodations, Ronnie returned with a flake of hay, which she dropped in the feed bin. Teddy Bearâs head disappeared, only to pop up a moment later, his mouth full of hay and his jaw working.
Heâd eaten earlier that morning at the horse-friendly inn where Jewel and Ava had spent the night after arriving in town yesterday. But Jewel allowed the horse a second breakfast, knowing eating would help settle him. Kind of like it did Ava.
âIâve got to run,â Ronnie said. âI have a wedding cake sampling at Sweetheart Ranch in an hour.â
âThatâs right. Your cousinâs getting married. Whenâs the big day?â
âA week from Saturday. Iâm the matron of honor. Weâre hoping youâll take the photographs.â
âIâd be thrilled.â
The two hugged again, and Ronnie left. Jewel stayed behind. She didnât have to be at Sweetheart Ranch for a while yet, and she much preferred the horse barn over sitting in her stuffy hotel room. Sheâd feed and change Ava soon and, fingers crossed, the baby would nap through Jewelâs appointment.
Hmm. Maybe sheâd run into Ronnie again when she got there.
Ava cooed and flailed her arms and legs. She probably wanted out of the wrap.
Jewel patted the babyâs bottom. âNot much longer, my sweet little girl.â
Hearing a noise, she glanced over to see a man half hidden by the shadows and pushing a wheelbarrow into the horse barn from the opposite end of the aisle. She didnât pay much attention, not until he drew closer.
She sensed more than saw him come to a stop, and she slowly turned to face him. The hairs on the back of her neck inexplicably rose.
Whatever words sheâd been about to utter lodged in her throat as the man emerged from the shadows and his features took shape beneath the weathered cowboy hat he wore. A wild rush of shock and then alarm coursed through Jewel, and she involuntarily tightened her grip on Ava.
She couldnât have been more stunned if sheâd seen a ghost. Then again, she supposed she had, for Tanner Bridwell stood before her.
He looked different. The beard was gone, but sheâd have known him and those arresting steel gray eyes anywhere. How could she not, when sheâd spent endless hours gazing into them and countless nights dreaming about them?
âWhat are you doing here?â she blurted.
His stare hardened, and he replied with a question of his own. âIs the baby mine?â
