"I spent most of my youth hauling sides of beef and pork to my father's shop. Carrying you is far more enjoyable."
"How sweet," Annabelle mumbled sickly, her eyes closed. "Every woman dreams of being told that she's preferable to a dead cow."

Lol. The end didn't work as well as the beginning for me (apparently it's rare for me to find a romance novel which manages to keep that feeling of euphoria I get in the beginning straight through to the very end), but I nevertheless enjoyed this immensely. Simon Hunt is... something else...
