Will she risk the wrath of the two alpha male cowboys or submit to their plans for her future? * * * “Consequences,” he said, softly, at last. On his tongue it sounded even darker and more dire than in my own mind. “Becky...take off your clothes.” I could feel my breath shuddering as I unbuttoned my blouse and peeled off my skirt. “Everything,” he ordered, his voice like stone. “Then get back on your knees.” I did as I was told, my skin prickling with goose bumps despite the heat. I could feel their eyes on me. Carl slid a hand over my cheek, his touch somehow rough and tender at the same time. “I’ll go easy on you,” he said at last. “Hell, most men wouldn’t have let you leave ‘em once before they’d claimed you properly.” His gaze connected with Jamie behind me, as if rebuking him. “I thought I wouldn’t be like them, not with you. But it seems that a man’s got to make a claim to what belongs to him,” he said, slowly. “And a woman in your position has got to learn to take it.”

The Rancher’s Inescapable LoveSJ McCoy
The Rancher’s Inescapable Love is the sixth book in SJ McCoy’s sweet n steamy MacFarland Ranch series, and the second to feature an older couple – in their fifties. Ace Zielinski is a laid-back kind of guy. He’s had his share of adventure, and now he’s content to live a quieter life back home in Paradise Valley. Surrounded by lifelong friends, and never short on offers of female company, he enjoys dating, but prefers to keep his relationships short and sweet. He values his solitude up in his cabin above the ranch too much – no way does he want a woman disturbing his peaceful life. He doesn’t mind going out of his way to help people. Last summer he helped a woman who came to the valley in the wake of a difficult divorce. Now, he’s about to be reminded that no good deed goes unpunished. Ariana Knightly cannot figure out how her life got turned upside down so completely and abruptly. Yes, she knew that she might face some blowback after handling Stella Ansari’s divorce last year, but she never suspected that she’d find herself in danger, ousted from her own law firm, and worse still, stuck in the middle of nowhere, Montana. Staying on the same ranch where Stella hid out last summer seemed like a good idea. However, Ari hadn’t taken into account that the winters in Montana are a whole lot different from the summers. But not even the subzero temperatures outside can lower the heat levels whenever she’s faced with Ace Zielinski. All she knew from Stella was that Ace was a nice guy who’d helped her out. Nice? Ha! Not one of the many words Ari would use to describe him. Hot? Check. Infuriating? Absolutely! Irresistible? Possibly. As for Ace, he doesn’t need some big-city lawyer around, especially not one like Ariana Knightly – she disturbs his peace in a way that no other woman ever has. He’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe, but he’s fighting a losing battle to keep her at a distance. When a major winter storm hits, Ace and Ari find themselves trapped in his cabin. They’re snowed in with no way to escape each other – and no way to avoid the attraction that’s been growing between them. Even if they can survive each other, they'll still have to face the danger that's closing in.
