Renegade Bride
“Four hellish days since they rode into town, Creed thought, watching Mariah hesitate, then lean over the counter to kiss Seth goodbye on the cheek.
"I won't be long," she told him. Seth trapped her hands and pulled her closer to give her a kiss of his own.

Dammit, what had made him think he could go through with this farce? Four days of... working side by side, the three of them... together. He sighed in frustration. It would be laughable if only he could find the humor in the situation.

"Maybe I should walk you down there," Seth suggested as she swept the apron over her head and slipped into a woven shawl.MoreLess
