way. The way he'd glanced at her yesterday when she’d worn her new T-shirt. Telling herself she was being silly, Maddie pushed the thought away and concentrated on savoring every mouthful of her bacon and eggs.
    The doorbell rang when she’d carried her plate to the sink. “I’ll get it.” Garrett strode out of the kitchen. A couple of minutes later he was back with a box. “Delivery man.” He held out the package to her.
    Maddie’s eyes lit up. She tore open the box, holding up her handbag. “My purse!” She unzipped the leather bag, noticing her phone nestled inside. An envelope was addressed to her, but she decided to read it later. Pulling out her wallet, she flicked through it. Her credit cards, driver's license, and small amount of cash were all there.
    She looked up at Garrett and grinned. “Now I can buy those shoes from the store.”
    He frowned. “Just put anything you buy today on my account. We can sort it out later.”
    Maddie shook her head. She was used to being independent and paying her own way.
    “I insist.” His voice was firm.
    She shot him a teasing look, secretly planning on paying for her purchases herself. “We’ll see.”

    “T hose jeans look good on you, hon,” a short, plump woman called out as Maddie entered the clothing store . Garrett had dropped her off, saying he had a few things to do in town, and he’d pick her up in about half an hour. As Maddie looked around the store, she wondered if thirty minutes would be long enough.
    “Thanks,” Maddie replied, unable to keep the smile off her face. “Carol bought them from here yesterday.”
    “You must be Garrett’s friend.” In her forties, the woman came around the counter to greet her. “I’m Donna.“
    “Maddie.” Should she tell the other woman she was actually Garrett’s employee? But, she reasoned, although she’d only met him two days ago, she did consider him her friend.
    “Did everything fit okay?”
    Maddie nodded. “Everything was great. In fact, I’d love to buy some more jeans. And shoes. Carol mentioned a pair she thought would be good for around the ranch.”
    Donna frowned. “I might have one pair of jeans left. Let me check.” She disappeared into the back for a minute and then came out, carrying a pair of faded blue jeans. “This is all I’ve got in your size.”
    “Can I try them on?” She’d always loved the color of faded blue denim . And the shade of these jeans reminded her of Garrett’s, and the way they molded themselves to his butt. Just thinking of him brought a touch of heat to her cheeks.
    “Sure.” Donna held open the curtain to a small changing room. “Is there anything else you’d like to look at?
    “Bras?” Maddie hoped she didn’t sound as reluctant as she felt. But there was no way she could keep wearing this bra that felt like she was being constricted, very slowly, all day long.
    “Over here.” The older woman led her to a section tucked away from the main part of the store.
    Sturdy cotton bras and delicate, lacy fripperies dangled side by side. Maddie brushed her finger over a silky, pale blue bra, edged with the softest lace. She held up the hanger and noticed it came with a matching set of panties. Smiling to herself, she realized if this was in her size, she could wear it with her new light blue T-shirt and the faded blue jeans she held in her arms. Then another, more risqué thought occurred to her. Would Garrett ever see her in this lingerie?
    Finding the matching set in her size, Maddie also scooped up a couple of pairs of plain cotton bras that looked as if they might give her comfortable support without digging into her.
    Entering the changing room, she swiftly took off her clothes and tried on each bra. The cotton bras fit exactly as she'd hoped, while the luxurious blue bra showcased her generous breasts, but wasn’t quite as comfortable to wear, thanks to the hard edge of underwire. But the matching panties ... The thought of Garrett seeing her
