Date: 10 9, 2011
Travis Blake owns his own ranch bought with the proceeds from his time on the rodeo circuit as a bull-riding world champion. While working on a tractor engine one of his men comes to tell him that a Mexican boy has been found injured. Travis walks into the bunkhouse to see the boy and almost immediately realises that this is no boy but a girl, he takes her to the big house. He is none too happy this could cause problems amongst his men, the ranch is pretty isolated and there are no women for at least ten miles. Selena had been attacked on the road by a couple of men who wanted to involve her in drug running fortunately a state troopers appearance had saved her. She had been forced to leave Mexico as her whole family had been killed by a drug cartel. With little money and no other family there she crossed the border into the states as she had American citizenship via her American Father, her aim was to locate his parents her grandparents. But, now she is on this mans ranch and he is preparing to examine her she is terrified, no man has ever touched her not even a kiss. Travis is enthralled with the young women in front of him, and feels very protective she is so small beautiful and delicate. He manages to persuade her to accept his help. Travis tells her she must stay till she is better. Selena's stay lenghtens into more than a few days she starts to cook Travis meals, and clean his house. The tension between them is electric, but she has no experience of men and Travis is domineering and bossy, and he makes it clear that he wants her.At first I was not too sure about this story as Travis seemed a bit out of control with his actions towards Selena, he finds it hard to be near her without touching her. He keeps her or tries to keep her away from the other men telling her they might come on to her or worse, but they all treat her with respect, Travis is the only one who is interested in her sexually. But is he really in control of the situation the further you get into the story it becomes apparent that the power is all Selena's
