Have Mercy

By Christina Lee

Julian NorthMy whole world changed with one roadside bomb and an honorable discharge. Not even the city I used to love can ease the restlessness inside me. I don't expect visiting my cousin Sienna's farm to do the trick either, but the change of scenery can't hurt. Wyoming isn't what I expected-from the mischievous pig following me around, to the rescue horse I've become strangely fascinated with. And then there's Kerry, the handsome, brooding cowboy, who somehow calms the storm inside me-and just happens to be Sienna's ex-husband. Kerry CarmichaelI've had a rough go of it since I came out-disappointing my family, the divorce, and the blow of my daughter's illness. Things are settling down now, my kiddo is healthy, and Sienna and I are finally on solid ground. Not everyone accepts me, but I've owned my truth, even if I spend my life solo. Only, now that Julian's here, I'm not so lonesome anymore. He's a kindred spirit. First as someone to talk to, then as...more. The first time I hold him through one of his nightmares, I feel a rightness I never expected to find.We know this'll end with the summer, but with every stolen kiss against the stable walls, with every heated or tender moment, I fall deeper. The reality is, I can't risk my family or the business by going public with him. I know this can never last and that Julian doesn't belong here. So why does it feel like he already does?
