Interlude in Pearl

Emily Ryan-Davis

Sequel to All the Trees in Pearl and All the Women in Pearl.

Twin Mountains Ranch foreman Mickey Lowe can’t sit through one more night of

newlywed relations without losing his mind. Packing up his frustration and yearning,

he delivers himself to Pearl spinster Emma Morgan with the intent to inspire some lusty

cries of his own.

When the cowboy comes knocking at Emma’s door late in the night, she believes

she knows what he wants and she is ready for him in an instant…until she discovers

what he’s really after.

Chapter One

Pearl, Colorado

Autumn 1869

The tall, broad man standing on her back porch didn’t remove his hat. He braced

his hand, callused and rough, against the frame above her head and said her name.

“Miss Emma.”

Emma Morgan knew the words he hadn’t spoken. Beneath her flannel gown, her

nipples tightened to hard peaks. His voice did that to her body every time, stroking her

skin, slow and firm, as if it had every right to touch her. He’d never once offered for her

hand in marriage. He had no rights in her bed. She welcomed him into it anyway. Most

She inhaled, exhaled a sigh. He smelled like coffee and wood smoke. He’d probably

spent the better part of the night beside a campfire. Unfortunately for both of them,

she’d have to send him back to the campsite instead of inviting him inside. Her throat

closed around a lump of disappointment. She’d rather keep him through what

remained of the night and take him through two or three climaxes. Instead of stepping

aside to grant him entrance, she studied his tall frame.

Mickey Lowe, foreman of Ethan Carver’s ranch, dressed for cowboy duty. He wore

a thick sheepskin coat over his flannel plaid shirt and his denim pants were stiff, good-

studied the open collar of his shirt, the curl of dark hair that she would have mistaken

for a trick of the shadows if she hadn’t known his body so well. His nipples wouldn’t be

as hard as hers. They didn’t respond to the idea of her touch the way her body

responded to the idea of his. She could coax them however, first with her mouth, later

with the curves of her bottom as she sat atop his chest and teased him with the scent of

her arousal. She so enjoyed the heavy-lidded sight of his eyes as she rubbed her spread
