“I should make you wait,” she whispered raggedly.
“I have waited,” he pointed out roughly. “Too long, Rose. Seems like I’ve been waiting a lifetime for you. Marry me. Spend the rest of our lifetime together.”
His thumb rubbed along her jaw, tracing her bottom lip. This felt so right. This was where she belonged, was what she had been looking for all along. Cabe Dawson was home.
“All right, then,” she finally said firmly. She twisted in his arms so she could look up at him as she pulled his familiar face down toward her. “I love you, too, Cabe. I love you more than words can say.”
“Kisses,” he growled. “I’ll take your kisses, then, Rose. I’ve been told that actions speak louder than words anyhow.”
“Kisses it is.”
She pushed his Stetson back, threading her fingers through his dark hair, her mouth reaching up to meet his halfway. She opened up for him as his lips parted hers, her tongue licking along his in a delicious tangle. No fleeting sensation, this. Her cowboy packed a punch, the sensual heat and taste of him filling her full with the promise that she’d come home.
After ten years of graduate school and too many degrees, Anne Marsh escaped to become a technical writer. When not planted firmly in front of the laptop translating Engineer into English, Anne enjoys gardening, running (even if it’s just to the 7-Eleven for slurpees), and reading books curled up with her kids. The best part of writing romance, however, is finally being able to answer the question: “So . . . what do you do with a PhD in Slavic Languages and Literatures?”
She lives in Northern California with her husband, two kids, and five cats.
