I think this is one of the most deeply romantic stories I’ve ever written- here is a little bit of Raine and Johnny:

Johnny was drowsy against my shoulder. He slid one hand down the length of my chest and settled his palm over my belly. “When I first saw you without your shirt, sitting in that hot tub, I thought, man, look at that! I bet he works out. Then I saw the callus on the palm of your hand and said, no, he doesn’t work out. He just works. Gave me a thrill to think of those callused hands moving across my skin. When I was home, taking care of my old man before he died, I would take a few minutes to myself, go for a walk, and dream about the way your hands would feel.” He turned his head until his mouth found my skin. “It’s been better than I imagined. I wasn’t expecting you to be gentle. You’re reading me, the way a cowboy reads the clouds on the horizon. Like it’s important to you to get it right.”
