Excerpt from Shifting Dreams
“Aren’t you the talkative one?”He gave her a sly grin. “Sometimes.”Jena shook her head. “I bet you barely have to talk to the girls with that smile, cowboy.”“Why ‘cowboy?’”“Boots and attitude. You can always tell a man by his boots. You’re not an office kind of guy, I can tell. I’d even bet you’ve got a hat hanging around somewhere.”He nodded. “You could say that.”“So, just passing through?”“You could say that, too.” At least for tonight. “And I left my hat in the car. My mom would skin me alive if I wore it inside.” She’d skin him alive for a lot of things, lately.“Good. I’ve had a tempestuous relationship with hats today.”“Now that’s a statement that begs a story.”She shrugged and leaned a little closer. “Maybe, but it’s not one I feel like telling tonight.”Caleb pulled her a little closer. “What do you feel like doing tonight?” No way in the world could he be that lucky.A slow smile spread over Jena’s face. “Dancing.”“We’re already doing that.”“And maybe kissing a cute cowboy who’s passing through.”Well, well. He wasn’t going to complain about that. Caleb looked around the bar. “Hold on, let me see if I can find one for you.”
