Miriam Alexander is going on vacation--the first vacation she's had since her husband died five years ago. She wasn't looking forward to it. She'd rather be working. In fact, her daughter, Kaitlin had talked her into taking the trip. How surprised and angry will she be to find her first love--the love of her life--Rhett Yancey is the owner of the Ranch where she is supposed to spend her vacation.
Miriam rested her head back on the seat and closed her eyes. Exhausted, she drifted off. Rhett intruded into her dreams. But she didn’t see him and that woman this time, only the smiling, loving man she’d married. When she opened her eyes, the limo pulled into the entrance of a white stucco mansion.
The driver walked around the car and opened her door. "Welcome to Calico Ranch, senora."
Miriam was in awe, gazing at the beautiful palms and exotic flowers that encircled the three-story house. "Ranch? I thought you were taking me to a hotel."
"No senora, the senor said to bring you here. No friend of his daughter’s would stay at a hotel."
Friend of his daughter’s? Oh, he must mean my daughter and his daughter are friends. Why didn’t I question Kaitlin? After much discussion about whether she needed a vacation, she finally just told Kaitlin to go ahead and make the arrangements. Why’d I ever let her talk me into this?
