About this story
Natalie is twenty, runs her drinking father's feed store and hides in shapeless dresses. She has been in love with Wyatt Strickland, the eldest and quietest of the ranch brothers, for as long as she can remember, and he has barely said ten words to her. Then Willie — the rich boy the whole town knows once tortured animals — decides she's his. Suddenly Wyatt is driving her home, checking her locks and asking whether she has ever been kissed.
