#Texas hold ‘em

[hangmanbradshaw]

on ao3

June in Texas hill country meant stifling heat, sunsets at 9pm, orange glows, and cicadas. Bradley remembers it well from the summer he'd spent at his aunt's house at 18, and when he finds himself the sole recipient of that house after she passes, he decides it's time for a fresh start after the mission that almost cost him and his godfather their lives. He'd never expected his summer fling from sixteen years ago to still be living there, but more than anything, he'd never expected Jake Seresin to be wrapped up in a local murder case.

Or,

Bradley retires from the Navy after the mission and inherits his aunt's house in Texas, where he'd spent a summer sixteen years ago falling fast and hard for the son of the ranch owner he worked for. Jake's grown into a man, taken over the duties of the ranch now, and oh yeah...is at the center of a murder investigation involving the son of an oil money family, who just so happened to be Nat's husband. According to the town, they got tangled in a love triangle, but there might be more to the case than meets the eye.

Love this!💕✨

Wish everyone with a country background accepted this OBVIOUSLY country song. It’s a fun good ‘ole time but folks lettin their racism get in the way.

Grow up & dance!

When I see her in a cowboy hat 🤠, I hear either

"Texas Hold 'Em"

-This ain't Texas (woo), ain't no hold 'em (hey)

So lay your cards down, down, down, down

So park your Lexus (woo) and throw your keys up (hey)

Stick around, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round (stick around)

And I'll be damned if I can't slow dance with you

Come pour some sugar on me, honey too

It's a real life boogie and a real life hoedown

Don't be a bitch, come take it to the floor now (woo)

"Bodyguard"

-Honey, honey

I could be your bodyguard (hey)

Oh, honey, honey

I could be your Kevlar (huh)

Oh, honey, honey

I could be your lifeguard (hey)

Ooh, honey, honey

You should let me ride shotgun, shotgun

Oh, oh, oh
