Kenzie

I followed my heart to Silver Ridge and it betrayed me. Now I’m stuck in a small mountain town with wagging fingers labeling me a homewrecker.

I endure because I don’t have enough money to get me off this mountain until I land a sweet gig. I’m counting down the hours until I watch Everett with his twins.

The man is sexy as sin, a grouch, and his amazing smiles are shared with everyone but me. And I think he's one more person who loathes me until he kisses me silly smack-dab in the diner.

I hate bullies. People sitting on their high horses when we’ve all made a bad decision or two. Look at me, I picked the wrong woman and after kissing Kenzie looks like life’s repeating itself.

I had a choice shut up the hecklers or make my move. I just didn’t expect her lips to taste like heaven and her curves to feel like perfection.

But I’m too smart to fall twice until I see Kenzie playing with frogs, in the mud with my girls. The dark clouds hovering over my heart part and a single word hangs between us: mine.
