The Cowbear's Mail Order Bride (Curvy Bear Ranch 6)
that brought them together. When his lips found hers, she moaned. He spread fiery kisses across her mouth until she couldn’t catch her breath. Every brush of his lips only served to deepen the kiss, to claim her, to draw her into an abyss of sensual desire so endless that she thought she might die if he ever let her go.
    The relentless kiss didn’t stop until he’d pushed past her lips and explored every inch of her mouth with his tongue. Heat pooled in the space between her thighs. She wanted to drag him into the building and peel off all the layers of clothing that kept them apart.
    He eased out of the kiss with finesse, leaving her weak and trembling. He stepped back and smiled softly.
    “Ready to go?” he asked.
    God, yes! Take me to bed , she wanted to scream.
    “Sure,” she responded.
    “If you need me to stop for any reason, just tap my shoulder three times,” he said.
    For a second, she wasn’t sure if he was still talking about the snowmobile trip, or if he was giving her a safeword signal. She really needed to stop reading so many naughty books.
    “Got it,” she said.
    As she climbed up behind him, her heart pounded against her ribcage. She had no idea what was happening between them, but she didn’t want to question it too hard. He still knew nothing about her—not even her real name of Cindy—and once he discovered her secret, he’d run the other way.
     

Chapter 6
     
    Drew’s cock ached worse than his first case of blue balls. Bouncing around on the snowmobile only exacerbated the problem. His lips still tingled and his heart pounded as he tried to concentrate on the turns. As the road to Mammoth Hot Springs wound alongside the Gibbon River, he tried to calm his bear.
    Mine. Mine. Mine. His bear chanted incessantly.
    No, Bear. She’s not yours, or ours.
    He couldn’t afford to start thinking about her as anything other than a guest at the ranch. If he fell for her, it would prove his sister-in-law was right. Damn her for putting him through this. If only Sharon wasn’t so irresistible.
    As he took a sharp corner, the snowmobile skidded across a patch of ice. She gripped his waist. The pressure shot straight to his groin and a shock of desire raced up his spine. He pushed against her and groaned into his helmet. At least she couldn’t see his pain. But if she could, would she do something about it?
    She hadn’t resisted his kisses either last night or today. Of course she’d been primed by Madison to fall for him, so it couldn’t be real. She was just reacting to him based on Madison’s portrayal of him. It didn’t mean anything.
    The trip to Norris didn’t take long, so he continued without stopping. He passed a sign that read 21 Miles to Mammoth .
    As they passed over a bridge, the meandering river shifted to the left side of the road. A small valley opened up on either side of the river. When he spotted a pack of elk, he crossed the road and pulled into a turnout. After turning off the snowmobile, he flipped up his visor. She followed suit.
    “I spotted some elk,” he said.
    “I saw them too and was hoping you’d stop.”
    “We can’t stay more than a minute or two, but let’s take a look,” he said.
    He took her hand and walked to the edge of the hill overlooking the valley. One of the elk raised its head and looked straight at them.
    “Wow, he’s beautiful,” she said. “His antlers are huge.”
    “You know what they say about a man with big antlers…”
    “No.” She chuckled. “Please, educate me.”
    “Well… I don’t know either.”
    “It’s not the size that counts,” she quipped.
    “That’s what small men like to say to make themselves feel better.” He grinned.
    “And I suppose you know nothing about that?” She arched a brow.
    “What, Madison didn’t send you a dick pic?” he asked sarcastically.
    “Nope.”
    “I thought that was the whole point of online hookups,” he said.
    “Maybe for some people, but not me. I was actually looking for
