The Cowboy’s Spring Romance

Arriving on the scene, they went unnoticed for nearly half an hour by the Thompson trio, who were in the thick of things. This gave the two women time to take in what was happening, hold their hands over their noses at the smell and decide they would much rather wait at the house. They were just turning to quietly walk back when Trent spotted them and rode over to the fence.

“Hello, ladies,” he called, forcing them to turn around at his greeting. Lindsay lifted a hand in acknowledgement and elbowed Cady.

Trent tied Lass, his horse, to the fence and swung over it, landing in one smooth motion with spurs jingling and the fringe on his chinks flying. Lindsay, who had never been given to the twittering silliness of simpering girls, thought she might actually swoon as Trent swaggered toward them. The horrid smells and churning dust faded away into a golden glow surrounding the two of them. Handsome, smiling, and virile, she watched Trent approach one enticing step at a time.
