“Is that a blanket invitation to keep doing so then?” Gemma’s lips are swollen.

“For you, cowgirl? Anything.”

Epilogue

GEMMA - SIX MONTHS LATER

“Blake! We’re going to be late.” I huff out a breath, shoving my feet into my cowboy boots.

“Gemma. The show doesn’t start for two hours. I promise, we won’t be late.”

I peek down at my watch. “It starts in an hour, Blake.”

Opening the bathroom door, he walks out in a puff of steam. A towel sits low on his waist, his glorious abs on full display. Now I’m starting to question whether we really need to be there on time. Not when Blake looks like Adonis.

“See something you like?” He struts over to where I’m sitting on the bed, stepping between my legs.

“You know I do.” My voice is deep and full of need.

He leans over, his lips hovering over mine. I tip my head up, wanting to close the gap.

“I guess it’ll have to wait. Someone tells me we’re going to be late.”

“Ugh. You’re mean.” I throw myself back on the bed as Blake walks over to the dresser and pulls out a pair of black boxer briefs.

“Maybe if you weren’t shouting at me that we’re going to be late…” Blake drops the towel, throwing it at me.

“It’s your big night.” I pull it off my face. “I want everything to be perfect for you.”

I watch as he gets dressed, stepping into a pair of jeans, and then walks back over to me. He kneels before me, sliding his hands along my thighs.

“You know tonight is already going to be perfect, right? You’ll be there with me to celebrate.”

I drag a finger along the bow in his lips, taking in the perfect structure of his handsome face. Some days, I still have to pinch myself that this is real. That Blake gave up his life in LA to move here and film his show.

Sure, there’s a lot of back and forth travel during edits, but the fact that he’s here? I couldn’t ask for anything more.

And tonight is the big premiere of his show,Teton Grand. With it being filmed here, the studio wanted a big party to celebrate. I was at Peter’s bar all day helping to set up for the after party.

“I know, I know. I’m worrying for no reason. I just want everything to be perfect for you.” I link my fingers behind his neck, pulling him close. “You’ve worked so hard and I want everyone to love the show like I do.”

“I don’t think anyone could love it more than you, Gem.”

“A family drama based here in Dixon? What’s not to love?” I laugh.

Blake leans in this time, capturing my lips in a heated kiss. Even after all this time together, it sends my heart soaring and toes curling in my boots.

Blake pulls back too soon. “Listen, tonight is going to be crazy, and I want to give you something before we go.”

Grabbing my hand, he leads me into the living room.

“Close your eyes.”

“Really?” I quirk a brow at him.

“Do you want your surprise or not?”

“Fine.”
