🧵 Day 6 - Kiss at Gate 12

Sometimes it’s not the kiss you remember. It’s everything that led to it.

🧵 Day 5 – Under the Lamplight

She pressed, he admitted. She touched, he held. And somewhere in the quiet, trust began to take root.

🧵 Day 5 - The Booth That Burned Steady

She thought it was dinner. He knew it was declaration. Between steakhouse lights and soft vows, they stopped pretending it was just a spark.

🧵 Day 5 - From Stairs to Steakhouse

Her brothers grumbled, her mother smiled, and Talon just stared. By the time they hit the highway, she was asking the one question no one else had thought to: not where he’d been, but where he was going.

🧵 Day 5 - Before He Even Saw Her

Her brothers fussed, her mother smiled, and Logan blurted the truth. Talon, waiting downstairs, grinned to himself. He didn’t need to see her yet to know she was radiant.

🧵 Day 5 - Too Many in the Pantry

He asked her father for permission. He made the reservation with a racing heart. And then, somehow, the pantry became the place she was left blushing.

🧵 Day 5 - Breakfast for Ten and One Viking

The kitchen roared with Flannery chaos—jam fights, dusty boots, biscuits in the oven. But she still noticed him. Still asked. And his answer was a kiss.

🧵 Day 5 - Goat Confessions & Rosemary Scones

She kissed Buttercup on the head and scolded Juniper like a wayward child. He wasn’t supposed to hear it — but now he can’t forget it.

🧵 Day 3 — The Double Date Disaster (Or Not)

She wanted to dance. He wanted her safe. Her parents wanted answers. By the end of the night—they all got more than they bargained for.

🧵 Day 3 - The Farm Tour

She’s not just showing him the land. She’s showing him the life he’s walking into—equal parts backbone and soft lace, the kind you work for… and hope you’ve earned by sundown.

🧵 Day 3 - The Feed Store Effect

She thought she was just picking up supplies.
He thought he was just being polite.
The women in the store had other ideas.
And the look on Tierney’s face?
Well…that’s what really did him in.

🧵 Day 3 – Clean Doesn’t Mean Clean

Two showers.
Two deep breaths.
And still… when they meet in the kitchen again, the air feels anything but clean.

🧵 Day 3 - Dust and Damage

She only meant to brush him off.
But her hand lingered.
And his eyes told her exactly what that meant.

🧵 Day 3 - What It Takes to Keep Something Alive

She didn’t slow down.
He didn’t expect her to.
But somewhere between eggs, basil, and breathless silence—
they started to move like they’d been doing this for years.

🧵 Day 3 - You Said Wake You. I’m Waking You.

She gave him fair warning.
He said he wanted to see her mornings.
He just didn’t say anything about answering the door in nothing but heat and sleep and skin.

🧵 Day 2 - The Way She Is With Him

She didn’t know he was watching.
She wasn’t trying to impress him.
And that’s what undid him.

🧵 Day 2 - Chaos Inc. and the Viking Trial

He thought the twins might go easy on him.
They did not.
And just when he looked like he might catch his breath—
she was holding the baby and wrecked him completely.

🧵 You’re in South Dakota Now, Viking

He thought he could coast on charm and grill skills.
She handed him a basket of green beans and said:
“Snap ‘em, city boy.”

🧵 Day 2 - You Missed Breakfast. Not Me.

He overslept.
She didn’t.
And somehow, that makes walking into her kitchen feel a little too much like walking into something he might not survive.

🧵 Day 1 - Porchlight Confessions

The Flannery house quiets down.
And she doesn’t ask if he wants to sit with her.
She just brings him tea—and lets the silence ask the questions.

🧵 Day 1 - What Gets Left in the Sink

The table’s cleared. The judgement is cooling.
But in the kitchen, the real warmth—and the real warning—lingers.

🧵 Day 1 - Dinner With the Flannerys

She set the table.
Her mama cooked the food.
And her entire family brought their judgment to dinner like it was dessert.

🧵 Day 1 - A Room, a Hug, and a Voice That Carries

She wasn’t planning to say thank you.
Or touch him.
But there’s something about showing a man where he’ll sleep that makes everything feel a little more real.

🧵 Day 1 - Thirty Seconds Behind the Truck

After the Flannery welcome parade, she pulls him behind the truck.
Not to flirt. Not to apologize.
Just to breathe.

🧵 Day 1 - Porchlight Welcome, Shotgun Optional

He made it through Cillian.
Now he meets the real Flannery gatekeepers—starting with a teenage marksman, and ending with the woman who sees everything.

🧵 Day 1 - The Pickup Plan (That Wasn’t)

She thought bringing Cillian would make things less awkward.
What it actually did?
Put Talon Wade on trial—with Tierney trying to act like she’s not choosing a side.
