Taken by the Woodsman

This is a historical steamy romance short story (word count 5,075).

Jane is taken by much surprise when she is kidnapped and whisked away most unexpectedly by a mysterious woodsman on a trip out with her maid.

The woodsman’s name is Gareth and he is determined that Jane should be his. However despite his hopes he promises Jane that the decision will be in her hands whether she stays with him or not, all he asks of her is that she gives it seven days to get to know him so he has time to gain her favour.

Jane thinks that there will be no chance of her falling for Gareth’s charms in this time, for it is not like a lot can change in one’s mind about a stranger in seven days! Or can it? As the days go by and Jane continues to live in close proximity to the man with the most intense looking blue eyes, she cannot help but question her feelings and emotions!
