Looking out of the boarding house window, she spies Dakota out working on a fence that somebody had knocked askew. She can't help but smile as she watches him kick the post straight and fill the hole in with a mound of earth. He wasn't wearing a shirt and the sweat across his back shone like dull glass. His hair was pulled back by a black bandana that soaked up the perspiration, keeping it from his eyes.
She'd set aside folding the linens for the moment. He looked like he could use a cool drink. And, she had the perfect thing for quenching that thirst. She'd made a pitcher of lemonade that morning and it was setting in the chill chest, just as cool as can be.
She grabbed a glass and filled it with ice, placing two raspberries into the bottom of the glass first. Then she fills it up with the lemonade and heads on outside.
The heat absolutely took her breath away. How could he work in such a blast furnace?
He watches her approach and that breathtaking smile slowly eases the lines on his face. He leans against the newly sunk fence post and folds his arms across his chest.
Holding the glass out to him, she eats him alive with her eyes, she simply cannot get enough of that broad chest, tattooed on the left side with a red rose. "Thought you could use something cool."
