Adam (Gallant Mountain)

RebekahI've had a crush on Adam since the first time I saw him. He was always kind to me, even though I was nothing but his dirt-poor, lanky, annoying neighbor. When tragedy struck and he moved away, I never thought I would see him again. But he's back. I'm not a kid anymore, but I'm still sneaking around his property, hoping to get a glimpse of the man I still think about. That is, until his brute of a brother catches me, tosses me over his shoulder, and ties me to a chair.
AdamIt's her. I would know that fiery red hair anywhere. She's all grown up, though it's obvious life has not been kind to her. It only takes me an hour to realize there is no way I will ever let her return to the home where she is being mistreated. The woman makes my heart race. There's only one way to ensure she never knows fear again-marry her. Now. Today. Maybe it's rash, but I know she's the one I want to spend my life with.
The woman who will bear my children. So why wait?
