Summary: Librarian Jensen Ackles has been secretly in love with cattle rancher Jared Padalecki since high school, but Jared's been pining after the Big Oil socialite that got away. When said socialite returns to their small town newly single, Jared decides to finally woo her by having Jensen teach him how to be a proper gentleman. Jensen never could say no to those stupid dimples.

Author's Notes:Thank you to [livejournal.com profile] fiercelynormal for the amazing art, stern beta, and epic best-friending; [livejournal.com profile] qafaddiction for the super-speedy beta & support; and my awesomely schmoop-needy friends for FORCING me to write this :D

Bacon, TX is a real town, but I'm positive that it doesn't even remotely resemble the one in this story. However, if they do happen to have a Sheriff Morgan there, I can get a U-Haul within the hour LOL

Written for [livejournal.com profile] spn_meanttobe for the following prompt (after the cut)



#5 My Favorite Cowboy
Rugged, rough and rowdy, Jarred Riddell is everything a cowboy should be. That's the problem. 'Cause Jarred has set his sights on a pretty lil' socialite who has no use for his unrefined ways. Luckily, he has a plan: get the local librarian to whip him into charm-school shape and that city gal will fall right into his gentlemanly arms.

But co-conspirator Serena Higgens has more on her mind than proper manners. She's pined for years after the sweet, hardworking rancher who lacks a bit of polish. To earn some much-needed cash, she'll put her feelings aside and give Jarred a crash course in respectability. Besides, throwing out mud-caked boots and correcting double negatives should help Serena get over her crush. It's the perfect situation…until Jarred adds kissing to the lesson plan!

That was a fun romance. I read it over on AO3. Thought I'd come back here to leave note. Really liked Jensen's angst and the twist ending. Sweet and hot.
