What readers are saying What do you think? She shook hands with him, conscious of his fingers engulfing hers. Not in a tingly, I-can't-believe-his-face-is-better-than-his-ass kind of way, but more with the awareness that his hands were bigger than hers. And he was taller, by at least four inches.
Interesting facts, but of no earthly use. First of all, she had yet to conquer her man-phobia and if she decided she wanted to, it wouldn't be with anyone like him. She would look for safe. Second, even if she was silly enough to be attracted to him, which she wasn't, there was no way in a million billion years that a guy like him would be interested in a woman like her. Men like him fell for supermodels and Well, back when her mother had been younger.
Charlie knew what she was. Strong and capable. She could wear the fifty pounds of gear her job required without breaking a sweat. She could haul hoses up ten stories of stairs, no problem. She was self-sufficient. She knew how to change a tire and fix a leaky faucet. She didn't need a man. Except maybe for one teeny, tiny thing. Clay glanced at their still joined hands. Because if you do, I'm going to need that back.
The ranch, she thought blankly. Oh, right. He lived there, she boarded her horse there. They would run into each other. They both nodded without speaking. As he strolled away, Charlie saw Michelle and Mrs. Coverson drop their gazes to his butt. Charlie allowed herself a quick look before heading toward the house and a freshly baked brownie. Sugar was easy, she thought. Deliciousness followed by a blood sugar spike.
But men—not so much. And Clay was worse than most. Because for a split second, when he'd tossed her that last smile, she would have sworn she felt something deep down in her belly. Not attraction. That was too strong a word. But a flicker. The faintest whisper. The good news was that part of her wasn't as dead as she'd thought.
The bad news was she'd discovered that fact by being in the presence of a butt model with the face of an angel. A man who could have any woman he wanted, simply by asking.
Or maybe hinting. His world was ruled by those who were flawless. She was broken. Maybe not where anyone could see and she'd sure learned how to fake normal. But she knew the truth. Still, progress had been made. A flicker today, a tingle tomorrow. Give her a millennium or two and she might find her way to being just like everyone else.
