Cameron, Paige - The Billionaire Rancher Buys a Wife [Wives for the Western Billionaires 2] (Siren Publishing Everlasting Classic) by Paige Cameron Page B

smile. “Drake said you’re headed for Texas , and I suspect you’ll be needing a pair of boots with all these ranches he’s taking you to on your vacation.” Ty reached for the box and put it in Janice’s hands.
    “I checked with Mom and discovered you and Cindy wore the same size shoe. I’m sure she’d want you to have these,” he said and pointed to the package.
    Janice lifted the cover and inside lay a lovely pair of woman’s boots.
    “They’re beautiful. Are you sure you want me to have them?”
    She saw him blink to keep the tears back. He’d reached out and covered her hands with his and now they tightened.
    Ty cleared his throat. “I’d be pleased to know you were wearing them.” He spun around and retraced his steps, going out the back door without another word or glance. Mr. and Mrs. Terrell held hands. Tears were evident in their eyes.
    “He’s never been willing to remove any of her things from his house. He’s packed them up, but they’ve stayed in the storage room,” Mrs. Terrell said. “He obviously took a sincere liking for you, Janice. Thank goodness, he’s taken this first step, finally.”
    Drake put his arm around Janice’s shoulder. “We need to leave for the airstrip. Our pilot will have the jet ready to go.”
    Brent drove them in his father’s truck. “I’m going back to Houston to follow up on some questions that still bug me. I’ll call if I find any important information.”
    “Thanks, I appreciate the help,” Drake said. The truck slowed to turn into the parking area by the airstrip. When he stopped, Drake helped Janice out.
    “Be careful, you two,” Brent said. “Are you sure you don’t want protection in Saddle Creek?”
    “Jackson and I will be on watch. I’d expect whoever it is will have something grand planned for our return to Houston .”
    “Not if I can prevent it. Have a good trip.” Brent waved as they hurried toward the jet’s stairs.
    Once they were inside and with the door shut, the plane began to taxi to the end of the runway. Drake checked Janice’s belt and then sat in the chair closest to her.
    “We’ll be at Jackson ’s in time for dinner.”
    “I’m looking forward to seeing Sam. You don’t think we might be bringing danger to them, do you?” Janice frowned at him.
    “Nope. Except for the first night, we’re staying somewhere else, not with them, just in case this crazy person does come to Saddle Creek. Which I doubt he will. How would he know we were going there or where we’d be staying? But if he did find out someway and follows us, he’ll be looking for you and me, not them.”
    “Which is some consolation, I suppose,” Janice said.
    “Right now let’s think of more pleasant things. Do you know how long it’s been since I’ve made love to you?”
    “A few days?” Janice quirked her eye at him.
    “An eternity of hours.”
    He removed his seat belt and unfastened hers. “We have hours of flight ahead. I know a great way to spend the time.” Drake picked her up and headed toward the bedroom.
    “Maybe I have other ideas,” she said.
    He threw her on the soft, wide bed. “I’ll change your mind.” He began to undress. His eyes never left hers as each piece of clothing hit the floor.
    First, his wide, tanned shoulders were revealed and his six-pack. Next, he sat and pulled off his boots, and then snapped open his jeans, unzipping and pushing the pants to the floor. He wore no underwear.
    Tall, nude, and gorgeous, he leaned over her. Janice’s heartbeat moved into overdrive. His smoldering inspection covered her body and sent heat flashing through her. A hunger grew at the junction between her thighs and fluid seeped from her pussy. When his hand traced along her arm and up to her neck. Her heartbeat fluttered like a bird trying to escape its cage. He put his knee on the bed and crawled toward her, laughter and lust reflected in his eyes.
    “You have too many clothes on,” his low, husky voice purred, sending a
