head. Hell, you could have three men at a thousand each to patrol a couple of times a week and you’d save yourself a ton of anguish.”
    She quickly did the math in her head. “Maybe you’re right.”
    “Hell yeah I’m right.”
    Wade and Heath came out of the kitchen and Jake jumped up. “What are they doing here?” He narrowed his eyes and stared down at her. “How do you know they aren’t responsible for the rustling?”
    Heath held up his hands. “I can assure you we did not steal Sam’s cattle. We got hundreds of our own to deal with.”
    She believed them. “They drove me home from the hospital.”
    Jake ground his teeth. “They’re not going to stay here, are they?”
    She never lied. “For a bit.”
    His breaths came out too rapidly. “I would have volunteered to help you. Don’t you know that?”
    Her heart squeezed. My God, he was interested in her. It was the only thing that made sense. “They’re just helping me cook and clean. I need you to help herd the cattle and to see that the men do their jobs.”
    His shoulders lowered. “You know I’ll handle the ranch hands for you.”
    “I appreciate that.”
    Even though they hadn’t discussed anything about the ranch, Jake turned tail and stormed out.
    Wade smiled. “That went well.”
    She rolled her eyes. “He takes his job seriously.”
    “Never said he didn’t.”
    She wasn’t sure how having the Watson brothers at her house was going to work out. She needed to work with Jake, and she didn’t need a spitting match every time he stopped by. Maybe she’d have to make a point of seeking him out first.
    “If you’re determined to stay here, let me show you where the linens are. The bed in the guest room is made up already.”
    By the time she got them settled, she was exhausted. “I’m going to take a nap. You okay by yourselves?”
    “Don’t worry about us,” Wade said.
    “Good.”
    She went into her bedroom to lie down. After she struggled to get her boots off, she was too tired to undress. When light speared her eyes, she was shocked to find she’d slept away the night.
    Showering would have to come after she ate something. She washed her face and brushed her teeth then headed into the kitchen. Only Heath was there.
    “Hey.”
    Heath spun around and smiled. “You’re up. Sleep well?”
    “Too well. I didn’t realize I was so exhausted.”
    “Can I fix you something? I bet you’re hungry.”
    “That’s for sure. I’m starving.”
    She poured herself a glass of juice and watched Heath fry a couple of eggs and bacon. He brought over the plate.
    “I was looking at what you have in your kitchen, and it’s sorely lacking in vegetables. Once you finish eating, do you want to tag along with me to the farmers’ market in town?”
    During the summer, the farmers sold their wares in town once a week. After spending all that time in the hospital, she’d like nothing more than to get some sun. “I’d love to.” She glanced down at her grungy outfit. “Let me put on something a bit more appropriate.”
    Heath was dressed for the warm weather, so he didn’t need to change. Once she finished eating, she went into her bedroom and pulled out a few outfits, all of which required a bra of some sort. She found something cool enough and tried it on. Her tits peeked through. Damn . She tore off that top and dragged on another one. It wasn’t any better. Exhausted, she dropped onto the bed.
    A knock sounded on her door. “You okay in there?”
    She glanced at the clock. She’d been there for over twenty minutes. Not good.
    “Just a sec.” Grabbing the bra, she held it tightly over her breasts. She looked down and saw that nothing showed. “Can you come in for a minute?”
    Heath pushed open the door and craned his head forward. “You sure you want me in here?”
    Samantha turned her back. “Can you do the back of the bra for me? I can’t reach it.”
    He had the nerve to chuckle. “Sure.” His warm fingers caressed her
