Excerpt
ONE TO TAKE
By Tia Louise

~ Mariska~
When I open my eyes again the next morning, and I’m alone in
bed, I’m pissed. Sitting up, I know what I have to do. I pull my hair around,
over my shoulder and weave it into a thick braid then I throw back the covers
and stomp over to the window. Still raining.
Going to the closet, I jerk it open, pulling out a bright
red floral dress and pulling it over my head not bothering with a bra. It
buttons up the front, but I only fasten the middle ones. I’ve had enough of
this behavior.
Amy is sitting at the kitchen table when I emerge from the
hall. “Hey, Mare! I want you to read my coffee grounds!”
“In a minute,” I grumble, going straight to the door and
outside. Light rain gathers in little beads on my hair, making it look like I’m
wearing a veil.
Into the barn, I scan the open space looking for Bill. As
far as I can tell, the only person in the area with the horses is Stuart, just
the man I’m looking for.
He’s in Ranger’s stall, and I go straight to the door, pull
the latch, and go inside. He stands up slowly, a confused smile on his face,
and it hits me so hard. He’s gorgeous in those loose jeans and that damn grey
Henley I stole last year.
“Hey, babe—” but I don’t let him finish. I go straight to
him and grab the front of my favorite shirt.
“I’m sick of it!” From the corner of my eye, I see Ranger’s
ears lay back, but I don’t care.
Stuart’s brow lowers. “Sick of what?”
“Stop treating me like a fucking China doll!”
“Mariska—”
“No!” I push him, but he doesn’t move. The man is a wall of
granite. “Before you knew, before I told you, when I was already twelve weeks
pregnant, if I left you in the bed alone one morning… One! You were pissed!”
He’s fighting the urge to grin, but I won’t have it. I push
against his arms and grab the front of his shirt, shoving it up his lined
torso.
“What are you doing?” He tries to catch my hands, but I push
his away.
“You’re going to fuck me right here and now in this stall.”
“What the…” He steps forward, past me to the door of the
stall and looks out into the barn. “Where’s Amy?”
“She’s in the house having breakfast with your mom. I don’t
know where Bill is.”
“He went into town,” Stuart says quietly before turning to
face me.
“Then we’re alone.” My hands are on his waist, but I only
get the top button of his jeans open before he catches them.
“Take it easy. We’re not doing this here.”
The tightness in my chest almost makes me scream. I’m
breathing fast, and my whole body is on fire with fury and hormones and lust.
“Stuart William! You’re the only man I’ve ever slept with!”
“I’m glad to hear it,” he says, that sexy smile returning.
“You taught me how to make love—fierce and rough and
demanding. I want you to love me like that now.”
I unfasten the buttons on my dress, allowing the front to
fall apart, revealing my bare breasts heaving beneath. His expression darkens,
and I see a glimmer of the old Stuart in his eyes.
He reaches out and catches my waist, pulling me hard against
his chest. A flash of need spikes in my veins. “Yes,” I whisper. “Like that.”
The muscle in his jaw moves, and he looks away. “I can’t get
off thinking I might hurt you.”
“You’ve never hurt me before.” Sliding my hands up his arms,
I grip his biceps. “You’re hurting me by holding back.”
Reaching for his hand, I guide it down, pulling my skirt up
so he can feel I’m not wearing panties, so he can feel how wet I am. “I want
you. The real you.”
“Mariska,” he growls as his fingers curl against my sex.
Putting both hands on his face, I pull him to me and kiss
him hard, parting his lips and pushing my tongue inside. At the same time, his
fingers plunge into me, and a low moan scrapes from my throat.
I rise on my toes, chasing his lips, and he’s kissing me
back with just as much passion, plundering my mouth. When I pull back, I nip
his bottom lip with my teeth, and our eyes meet, burning with the fire I’ve
been missing so long.
He takes my arm and turns me around, pushing me against the
wooden side of the corral.
“Yes,” I gasp, clutching the wooden slats, arching my back
as I brace against the wall. Cool air sweeps along my thighs and ass as he
sweeps the flowing skirt away.
He studies my body as I hear his zipper lower. One large
hand grips my hip, kneading my skin. “So beautiful.” His voice is rough and
hungry.
“Please,” I whisper. I’m on fire, and I ache deeply for his
rough touch.
At once I feel a stinging SLAP! against the soft skin of my
behind followed by another kneading grip. The biting pain only spikes my
desire.
“Oh god, yes,” I sigh. My legs tremble. Sparks of pleasure
fizz in my veins, and waiting for him is almost painful. I moan as he slides
his erection up and down my slick folds until finally, in one hard thrust, we
both groan as he plunges inside.
Review
"She told me to leave. If I leave, I take her with me."
Oh my gee!!
I've been eagerly awaiting Stuart and Mariska's continuing story...and I couldn't be happier with the ending!!
These two characters have been through so much together, but they are about to go through hell and back. This story made me smile as much as it completely broke my heart!
"I don't want to be troubled by nightmares. I don't want to figure out my dreams. I want my cowboy to take me away."
I really love that Tia Louise didn't make Stuart and Mariska's love story easy.
Did they love each other with all their hearts? Yes.
But was it enough?
There were things that happened within these pages that I wouldn't wish upon anyone. My heart was just breaking for them! I wanted to reach through my kindle and hold them both. I wanted to push them back together as they struggled to stay apart.
"Just because things change doesn't mean they're spoiled. It means you have to learn to change with it, together...You grow stronger by giving when you have nothing left to give. You grow together."
I absolutely adored the way everything fell together within this story. The ins and outs of their lives, and how they each dealt with grief and suffering.
This really was a beautiful story!
Tia Louise brought it to life with relatable situations, family struggles, and a love that nothing could destroy.
Wonderful read!
"Our love has always been a leap of faith, and our connection since those first days so long ago was mysterious and risky. It's the most certain thing I've ever known."
