A MOMENT TO LOVE
A Whistle Stop Romance #1
Jennifer Faye
Released February 3rd, 2015
The notorious cowboy meets his match…
Cord Lawson instantly distrusted the young woman in a smart suit who’d just arrived in Whistle Stop. She was very pretty and clearly a city girl—but with memories of his failed marriage still darkening his mind, he’s determined to steer clear! But she’s sniffing around his land—land that had been in his family for generations. There was no way he’d let it go—even if the bank was threatening to foreclose, and selling could give Whistle Stop a new lease on life.
Alexis Greer had one mission in mind—close the deal on the Lawson estate; without it, her father’s land development company would go bankrupt. But the word around town is to keep clear of Cord and to stay away from his precious land. What in the world had happened to cause such a handsome cowboy to live such a solitary existence? However, determination was Lexi’s middle name, and she just had to keep on trying to breach Cord’s barriers, appeal somehow to his head and heart—even if it put her in danger of losing both of hers…to him.

{ excerpt } .
Alexis wanted to ask more about the residents of
Whistle Stop, but she decided not to press Cord for answers. “I think it’s the
most amazing place I’ve ever been. I can see why you’re so protective of this
place.”
His gaze jerked back to her. “You really mean that? You
think this place is special?”
“I do.” Her pulse started to race as he continued
staring at her. “This place is loaded with a rugged charm and rare beauty.”
He lifted his bottle to drink. When a trickle of water
trailed down his chin, she longed to reach out and run her finger over his damp
skin, over the place where his vein pulsed. She wondered how he’d react if she
gave in to the impulse.
“There’s a far more beautiful sight.” His voice was
deeper than normal. The sweet words drizzled over her like thick, rich caramel.
“Where would that be?”
Their gazes connected and held. “The woman standing
right in front of me.”
Her gaze searched his. Could he read the desire in her
eyes? Did he know how much she’d been longing to feel his lips pressed to hers?
The heat was definitely affecting her now. There was no other acceptable
explanation for her overwhelming yearning to have him kiss her.
When his hand claimed her hip, her heart soared. With a
tug, he pulled her closer, and her body willingly obliged. This shouldn’t be
happening. It wasn’t right. They were opponents. But, somehow, out here in the
desert miles from civilization, reality no longer seemed quite so important.
Her gaze slipped to his lips. The breath hitched in her
throat, and his head dipped toward her. This was it. The moment of no return.
Her eyelids drifted closed. His mouth grazed hers, and her resistance melted
away. For the moment, a truce let their differences fade into the background, and
they melted together. His tongue gently probed her lips, parting them with
ease. Their tongues moved in unison, as in a well-rehearsed dance.
When Cord sucked on her lower lip and ran the tip of
his tongue over it, her fingers tightened on his shoulders. Shivers of need
zinged through her, bringing her body to life. She should have pulled away, but
she couldn’t—not yet. His lips were as sweet as a Choconut Bar—no, definitely
sweeter— and she was on a sugar high.
