The Bet — Kennedy Kovit

Contemporary Western Romance Short Story

Blazing Hearts Series, Book 1

Tyson is a man with a dark past and he isn't much on wagers. But when his best friend bets him that he can't romance the pants off their boss's daughter, he can't resist. See, he's had the hots for Ms. Lexie Garnes for years, but she was too young to act on it. Now that she's a college graduate, and more than legal, he's all in. Tyson can't hide his feelings for Lexie any longer. With a bet on the table, he has no choice but to man up and find a way for her to accept him and his kinky bedroom tastes.

Lexie is glad to be back down south. Her time away did her good but made her miss home. Middlefield may lack excitement, but it has something Boston never did -- Tyson Morrows. Her father's ranch foreman is sexier than ever and suddenly seems to have eyes for her. Is this too good to be true? Will his commanding hands in the bedroom prove to be too much for her and what will happen when she learns he only made his move because of a bet?
