“Mmm. I like that.”
“There will be plenty more where that came from, Pres.”
“Good.”
Because having this with Kade? This day with the three of us?
Ilikelike it.
No, I just love it.
Chapter Twenty-Seven
PRESLEY
“Ithought you said Kade was coming with us.” Poppy swings her hand in mine as we stroll down Main Street.
It’s one of the last days for the farmers’ market, and with the day off work, I’m glad that the three of us can spend it together.
“He’s going to meet us there. He had some work to do at the ranch.”
Poppy looks up at me through her pink, heart-shaped sunglasses. “Do you think he did something fun with Lollipop?”
I smile at her, loving how much she’s enamored with the horse. “He said he had something else to do today.”
“Kade told me that next week he’s going to show me how to brush her.”
“And I’m going to.”
Poppy startles, spinning around to spot Kade behind us.
“You’re here.” Poppy throws her arms around him and he lifts her into them with ease.
“I told you I was coming.”
In his usual cowboy hat, a dark jacket, and jeans that stretch across his thighs, Kade is the epitome of a cowboy.
Make that one sexy cowboy at the small smile he sends my way. That smile does funny things to my insides.
“The market is fun. Mom lets me spend my allowance however I want.”
“However you want?” he asks, sending a wink my way.
It does funny things to my insides. But it pales in comparison to seeing how good Kade is with Poppy. He’s a natural. He loves getting to spend this time with her, and I love how easily she’s taken to him.
Poppy has talked nonstop about our ride out into the mountains with him. Everything is now all about Kade.
“Miss Serena has pretty bracelets I want to get.”
“Serena has a booth at the market?” Kade asks.
“She does.” I laugh.
We stop at the crosswalk and he sets her down. Poppy takes his hand and looks up at him. “She tells you good luck things.”
Kade eyes me. “Good luck things?”
“She tells you your fortune.”
