Taggart had no way of knowing what exactly the women were arguing about, other than it had something to do with a wedding bouquet. The word had seemed to set off a mild explosion in Emily-Ann. And why had she said that about never being pregnant? Was there a reason she couldn’t have, or didn’t want, children? Maybe she was one of those women who decided motherhood is not for her. But Taggart seriously doubted that. Her body moved with a sensuality that said she was made to make love to a man.
“I’m not sure I should try that,” Taggart said. “She’s a redhead. She might slap me.”
Camille laughed again, while Emily-Ann gazed over the rim of her frosted glass at him.
“I’m sorry, Tag,” she said, then smiled impishly. “I’m not really bad-tempered. Until I get around my old friend.”
He was about to tell her that he wasn’t thinking she was bad-tempered when Blake suddenly appeared at his side and clamped a friendly hand on his shoulder.
“Sorry to interrupt, Tag, but there’s a group of men from the cattlemen’s association who are anxious to meet you.”
“Sure,” he said, but as he walked away with the ranch manager, he wondered if he’d get a chance to talk with Emily-Ann again before the night was over. And wondered, too, why he’d want to.
