avalanche, although you have had a few moments when you spoke lucidly.”
    What the hell had he said? He had no memory of any conversations—hell, no memory of anything but some wild dreams about horses, avalanches, and Maggie.
    Ironic that an avalanche had taken Maggie away and another had brought him into Cassie’s arms. Okay, enough trying to make sense out of this screwed-up mess. He wouldn’t be in this girl’s arms for long. She didn’t trust him. Detested him, most likely.
    So damned tired. Too exhausted to do anything about the exotic, contrary beauty in bed beside him, for sure, Luke’s eyelids drooped.
    “Good. Sleep now. You need to regain your strength.” Her words filtered through his fuzzy brain briefly before they faded away, but he heard her stress the word need as if there was an unspoken soon .
    The next time he opened his eyes, the room was still dark. He lay pressed against a soft body again, nice and warm. Maggie. His cock stirred. His favorite times were waking up slowly together on their rare lazy days.
    He was naked except for his boxers. She wore a bra and panties.
    “I see you are awake again.”
    Cassie? Slowly, Luke remembered where he was and what had happened. Avalanche. Cassie’s cabin. Hell, Cassie’s bed! Having her close like this—the closest he’d ever managed to come to the girl—made him grin. “How’d a little thing like you drag me in here?”
    “You regained consciousness long enough for me to help you out of the truck, and I had you inside before the chills hit and you lost consciousness again.”
    “Oh, so that’s why you undressed me.”
    Her body grew stiff. “You had hypothermia. There would be no other reason for me to do so.”
    Shit . No wonder he’d been out for so long and was so confused now. He wondered if he didn’t have a concussion, too. Luke suffered enough of those during his football days in college to remember the confusion they brought. He might even be dealing with some altitude sickness. Her place was barely three thousand feet above his, but the effects could be exponential.
    “Luke, are you still cold?”
    “Not much anymore.” Being too cold definitely wasn’t his problem now. His cock grew stiffer with her breasts pressed against his side. Cassie was going to be embarrassed as hell whenever they decided to move out of this bed.
    Not that he planned on moving anywhere at the moment.
    “Good.” She yanked the top blanket off him and held it up to her chest. “Because I need to check on my soup. Now, turn your head away.”
    Why’d Momma raise me to be such a gentleman?
    Luke sighed and slowly turned away to avoid any sudden movement that might set off the jackhammer in his head again. She hurried to cover herself and get out of bed. He regretted the loss of her body heat the moment she left his side.
    “I will be right back with a bowl of soup. It will help warm you even more. Would you like some coffee, too?”
    “Both sound good. Black would be great.”
    As her footsteps retreated and the door opened and closed, he rolled onto his back again with a groan, laying his forearm over his eyes. Damn, he hadn’t felt this weak since O’Keeffe kicked him in the thigh.
    Aw, hell. If his body hurt this bad, what did his new truck look like? Cassie said it was probably totaled. He’d only had the damned thing about five months. Bought it for hauling the—
    Shit! Luke tossed the remaining blankets off and struggled to sit up. The room swayed, his head pounded, and his vision blurred at the sudden change in position. He held on to the bedpost until he could see straight again. He needed to find his phone and send someone out to his ranch to check on his horses.
    Luke stood and scanned the room, but it was too dark to see if his pants or coat were here. Where had he left his cell phone? He stumbled toward the living room and scanned the room from the bedroom doorway. No phone in sight. Most people didn’t bother with landlines these
