around here over the years that it’s become pretty hard for a guy living all the way out here to get a girlfriend. Naturally the guys miss it.”
    “What you’re saying is the ranch hands are horny?”
    “They are indeed.”
    “So I’m the only woman on a ranch with five horny ranch hands?”
    “That’s pretty much the situation,” Connor told her and then laughed. “Yes , ma’am ,” he teased.
    She gave him a playful punch and bit his shoulder. Even under his shirt he tasted good. “Stop teasing me!” she yelled, but also laughed with him.
    “Those guys are my family, and now so are you, Raven.”
    “I don’t know,” she said, as they stopped in front of his truck. “I’m in unfamiliar territory here, but don’t you think it might get tense out here with only one woman, namely me, and five guys who are just dying to get laid?”
    “You’re right,” he admitted. “It will be deep, and you’ll have to make up your mind how you want to deal with it. I can tell you one thing. The guys are all going to love you, but they might love you more than you want them to at times, if you know what I mean.”
    Raven took a deep swallow. She knew exactly what he meant.
    “All I can do is take things one day at a time and see what happens,” she told him. “Maybe I should make the ultimate sacrifice for my ranch and sleep with you all.” Of course she was only joking.
    “That’s not a bad idea.”
    “You’re not serious,” she said, but really thought he might be. “You’re not serious, and neither am I.” She kissed him again and pushed away from him. “I still don’t think it’s a good idea if we sleep together right away. Just let me get the lay of the land first, and then we can decide what to do.”
    “Yes, ma’am .”
    “Come on, cowboy, let’s go meet my new family.”
    “Anything you say, boss .”
    She laughed and kissed him again.

Chapter Four

    Three miles further down the gravel road, they drove up to the line of trailers strung together, set out in the middle of the open prairie. Raven’s trailer was in the middle, and two other smaller ones were parked up tightly to its side.
    At first sight, the trailer yard didn’t look like much to Raven. The gravel road leading there was covered with weeds, and the yard itself was also infested with weeds. Did those damn weeds grow everywhere on this ranch?
    The trailers looked small and cramped, and at least from the outside, did not look impressive.
    Three of the other ranch hands were present and lined up, waiting to meet their new boss. From Connor’s description of them earlier, Raven easily recognized them. However, what he had not told her was that they were all gorgeous. Every one of them had some male quality that called out sexuality to her, and made her heart do flip-flops as if she had just discovered men for the first time.
    “I’m really happy to finally meet you guys,” she told them, and realized that she was not lying.
    She shook hands with the most aggressive of the group, Roy. He was a gritty, unshaven man, well over six feet tall, built tight all over his body, wearing a sexy, tight-fitting T-shirt, boots, and a hat. His blue eyes were so intense, they forced Raven to look away as they bored a hole through her. He was looking her up and down like she was a Christmas present come early, and though she might have been the new boss, he made no pretense of staring at her with uncovered lust in his eyes. This was the bad boy Connor had told her about, and Raven could see he was going to be trouble, maybe a good and fun kind of trouble, but very definitely trouble.
    “You’re the cutest little ranch boss any cowboy ever dreamed of having,” he told her, his intense stare never once leaving her.
    “Is that a compliment, Roy?” Raven asked.
    “Turn around, darling, and let me get a look at your cute little butt,” he said, his stare roaming her body. “I am in lust, guys.”
    “Do they have sexual harassment laws out
