Christine Wenger - Reunited With The Bull Rider

Reed chuckled. “You’re not the only one who’s going to be busy. Onward to the Beaumont Ranch, please. I have a lot of calls to make to find contractors.”

“And I have a lot of paperwork to handle and file.”

Callie had an excellent reputation for doing quality work, but it wouldn’t hurt to give it more of a boost. She could raise her fees after working for the Beaumonts; their positive endorsement of her skills would get around the small town like wildfire.

“Can we share Big Dan’s study?” Reed asked.

It was his father’s study, after all, so she had no right to keep him out of the room. Wait a minute! The brothers had bought the ranch at a tax auction because Big Dan hadn’t paid the taxes and had ignored the upkeep after Valerie Lynn’s death. So, Reed owned one-third of the ranch and the study was his, too.

“We could share the study on a trial basis,” Callie said, turning left onto Rabbit Run Road. “If we can’t work together, I can pack up everything and move someplace else and just go in there to file.”

“But, Callie, we can get along. After all, we are faux engaged.”

“And faux engaged is all that we’ll ever be.”

He raised an eyebrow. “Oh, yeah?”

“Yeah!”

“Is that some kind of a challenge for me to ask you out?” Reed asked.

“No. It is not. No way. Please don’t misunderstand me. I’m not flirting with you. I’m telling you straight. I’m not interested in developing a relationship with you, Reed, or any man. Not at all. I’ve struck out way too many times.”
