Kiss Me, Sheriff!. Wendy Warren
id="u54812906-1b16-5b0a-a6f5-6829ad9b95d1">
It only took one kiss...
Willa Holmes has one rule: don’t fall in love! Love brings ties and ties bring pain, and she’s had enough of that. That’s why the pastry chef fled to Thunder Ridge in the first place—to live privately and bake anonymously. But then she makes a big mistake: she kisses the local sheriff. The tall, dark, incredibly sexy sheriff...
No high-speed chase. That’s Derek Neel’s dating rule...till Willa. But the cowboy sheriff’s hot pursuit hits a roadblock when he takes in an at-risk boy and Willa bucks like a frightened filly. Why is she so scared of the very things he wants most—love, family, forever? Derek isn’t sure, but he knows this: not even Willa can escape the loving arms of the law!
WILLA’S FAMOUS S’MORES
A long time ago back in LA, I made this with my— well, let’s just say with some people I shared my life with. They’re gone now, but I’ve always held tight to the special memories of making this recipe with them. I’m in Thunder Ridge now, a town full of caring people... and a sheriff who keeps challenging my heart. I’m not sure I’m ready to love again, but I am ready to share these homemade treats with you.
PS: I’m letting you in on my closely guarded secret!
Ingredients:
4 graham crackers
2 marshmallows
2 chocolate squares
2 metal skewers
metal grill basket
1. Lightly warm the graham crackers and chocolate by placing them in a metal grill basket high over the flame. The secret is making the crackers soft. Like love, it’s all about not getting broken!
2. Skewer the marshmallow and hold it far enough away that the flame is just teasing it. Be careful not to burn it.
3. Stack a graham cracker, chocolate square and marshmallow, and top with another cracker.
This recipe makes two, so share them with someone you love. Tell them Willa sent you.
