“Yeah.” I sigh and think of one of my favorite book series.
“Fuck it.” He shrugs. “What do I need? Green body paint?”
“Blue, actually.”
His expression is so shocked.
I can’t help but laugh. “Unless you’re not into that.” I raise my brows in challenge.
“Darlin’, I’m down for whatever.” He opens the door, holding it for me. His words send a rush of delight through my body as I pass him. “Especially when it involves me eating your pussy.”
Oh.Well, in that case.

JACKSON
The universe isn’t kindthe next day. There must be a heat wave coming through, and the mid-day sun is brutal. There are no clouds to offer temporary cover. No breeze to take the edge off. I’ve already sweat through my shirt, and while the weather sucks, I don’t find myself counting the minutes to quittin’ time.
It’s this damn audiobook. The story is so addictive and these narrators have me questioning every time I judged a book for being boring. Maybe all this time I just needed someone to read to me. Maybe I just needed some heat. These aliens really know how to fuck.
I’m at an especially spicy chapter when I arrive back at the barn alongside the rest of the crew. I dismount my horse and lead him to where Ryan is going over our next task. There’s a beep in one of my ears. I frown, confused at the sound, when all of a sudden, the audio leaves my ears and blasts at full volume from where my phone is tucked into the front of my shirt pocket.
“Yeah baby, that’s it. Right there. Fuck me like the dirty little slut we both know you are,”the male narrator proclaims.
Ryan’s gaze whips to mine. “What the fuck are you listening to?”
I scramble for my phone as the scene gets even more explicit.
Thrusting my hips forward, I feed her every inch of my dick. Her pussy squeezes my cock, milking me until I can’t take it anymore. “Where do you want me to come? These perfect tits? Or inside you?”
“Jackson Wilder!” Ryan scolds.
“Oh, God!” One of the ranch hands laughs, holding his hands to cup his ears. “Turn it off!”
“I’m trying!!” Even after I tear off my work gloves, I can’t get the fucking screen to unlock. It’s this damn sun!
The audiobook narrator switches to a female voice,“I want you inside me. Give it to me. Come, baby. Give me every last drop. Give me?—”
“Thank fuck,” I swear as I finally close the app. An awkward beat of silence stretches as I lift my gaze and make eye contact with my brother and the rest of the crew. Which is unfortunate enough, but of course today my nephew Zach and his buddy Nolan are helping out.
“Jackson?” The deep scowl in my brother’s frown is full of disappointment and maybe even concern. “A word.”
“Yep.” I hand off the reins to my horse and put my head down.
I don’t embarrass easily. It takes a lot to make me self-conscious. But this does the trick. I’m not really sure there’s a way to explain my reason for listening to a smutty audiobook. If I say I’m doing it for a woman, they won’t believe me. If I claim it’s because I’ve become an avid romance reader—they’ll tease me until the day I die.
Either way, I’m fucked.
I brace myself for the relentless teasing and nicknames that are sure to follow.
Inside the barn, I pause a few feet from where my brother stops and paste on a look of casual indifference as he turns to meet my stare.
“What’s up?”
“I can’t even imagine.” Ryan blinks slowly, his eyes wide as they meet mine. “Why don’t you tell me?”
“Tell you what?”
