Can she forgive…
The man who walked away?
Eight years ago, Marcos Ramirez met and married Nina Walker in the space of a day. The next morning, a family tragedy had him hightailing it back to his family’s Texas ranch. After annulling the marriage and redeploying with the marines, Marcos never thought he’d see Nina again. But now she’s moved to his hometown, with a secret that will change this rancher’s life forever…
“Is that a Pachycephalosaurus in your hand?” he asked.
“Is it?” She set the little dinosaur on the table. “It was in my purse. I forgot I was holding it. How’d you know the name?”
“I loved dinos when I was a kid.”
“So does Logan. These days I always seem to have a dinosaur or two on my person, and I’ve learned more about them than I ever wanted to know.”
Marcos picked it up. He made it stomp around on the table a bit, then headbutted it into his tea mug with a “grrraaawwrrr!”
It was the most adorable thing she’d ever seen him do.
He set the dinosaur down. “Logan seems like a good kid,” he said. “Doesn’t run off at the mouth.”
“True. He’s a boy of few words.”
“He looks like you.”
“Oh, do you think so?”
“Yeah, in the shape of the eyes.” He made a vague gesture to his own face. “His are brown, though.”
Hazel, actually. Light brown flecked with green…like the ones staring across the table at her right now. “Guess he gets that from his father,” Marcos said.
Her heart was beating way too fast. She took a sip of her drink and burned her tongue. Warning! Hull breach imminent! Change subject!
But then again…
Did she really have to protect the secret?
