Rocky Mountain Sister Read Online Free PDF Page B

she wished she could remember the past. This land seems to get prettier every day. “Christian, you would love it here. The land, the sky, everything is so beautiful” Cassandra said out loud to herself.
    Jessie Harper sat on his horse watching the beautiful woman sitting on the rock across the river. Kenzie Greenwood seemed to draw his attention more than usual. He was never attracted to Kenzie, but today she seemed different, more beautiful than he had ever seen her.
    Today she was wearing a dress. In the five years he lived next to the Greenwoods, he couldn’t ever remember Makenzie wearing a dress outside of the house. He crossed the river slowly, Kenzie didn’t seem to move. She never noticed him.
    “Good morning, you seem to be lost in the clouds.” Jessie hollered up to Kenzie.
    Cassandra jumped at the sound of his voice. Upset with herself for being so absorbed in the outside world, she didn’t notice the man and horse approach her.
    “
Fool
.” Cassandra thought to herself. It was the man from the general store. “
Oh Lord, please help me keep my composure and not make a fool of myself again.
    “I didn’t expect you to be out her gazing at the sun, I figured you to be off somewhere chasing cattle.” Jessie climbed the boulder and sat down beside her. He felt himself a shudder, he had this over whelming feeling to put his arm around her.
What in the world made you think that?
He always thought of Kenzie as a sister. Yes, he was protective of her, but
this
was different. He wanted to hold her. The same feeling as when he saw her in the Mercantile. He wanted to wrap his arms around her and protect her,
like Makenzie Greenwood need protecting.
Jessie thought to himself.
    Cassandra gave the handsome man a second look, she gave herself a giggle. He must think she was her sister. Only a few locals in town saw both of them at the same time and knew they were twins.
    “This is such a beautiful spot to watch the wild life, look at the mountains, and watch the clouds roll by.” Cassandra said to man. She knew she shouldn’t trick him into thinking she was Kenzie, but right now it was kind of fun. “And I don’t chase cattle.”
    “Nathan told me you lost ten more head last night” Jessie’s voice was quiet. “If we can’t figure out something to stop Ferguson, he will wipe us all out.”
    “I’m sorry, I have no idea what you are talking about, I am not Kenzie” Cassandra decided she better come right out and tell him since he was talking about the ranch to her. She knew nothing of this Ferguson man or what he was talking about when he said losing ten head. Ten head of what? She wanted to ask him.
    “Kenzie, please let me help you and Nathan. Together we can stop him” Jessie looked her straight in the face. His eyes lingering on her lips.
    “I am not Makenzie. I don’t even know your name, let alone what you are talking about.” Cassandra tried to keep her stare on his eyes, but she too lingered on his lips. Lips she wanted to be kissed by.
    “Don’t talk.” Jessie lifted a finger to her lips. Slowly lowered his head and kissed her.
    Cassandra felt fire run through her body as he touched her then lowered his face near hers. When he kissed her, she didn’t resist. In fact Cassandra enjoyed the kiss very much.
    “Sweetheart, I don’t know what you are doing to me. You seem to be driving me crazy.” Jessie didn’t want to stop kissing her.
    “Please stop, you don’t understand. I am not Makenzie. I am her sister.” Cassandra pushed away from Jessie. She wanted to be in his arms. She felt protected and safe with him, even though she didn’t know this man. Cassandra figured he was Jessie Harper, the neighbor Makenzie and Nathan had mentioned in several conversations.
    Jessie watched her run to her horse and ride back toward the Greenwood ranch house. He couldn’t figure out why she was acting like someone else. Makenzie didn’t have a sister.
Did she?
He would know about her if she did.
