EPILOGUE

Two weeks later

CARA LOOKED AROUND the Hitching Post’s banquet hall, a room transformed by thousands of white lights into the perfect setting for a fairy-tale wedding reception.

“Andi and Tina and Jane really made this one special,” Cara said to Jed. “It’s just what Lizzie wanted. She hasn’t stopped smiling since she and Kyle made their entrance.”

“I second that,” Wes said.

The newlyweds had originally planned a small party at the community center. Thanks to Andi, Cara knew Jed had offered Lizzie and Kyle the banquet hall without charge, then surprised them by giving them the reception as a wedding gift.

Andi had sworn her to secrecy about Jed’s arrangements, which turned out to be unnecessary since the bride had charmingly and publicly thanked Jed the minute the reception began.

Every time Cara thought of his generosity, her eyes misted with tears.

Every time she thought of his matchmaking skills, she gave thanks.

She smiled at Jed. “You’ve made Lizzie’s day complete.”

“Glad to hear it. But that girl needs to learn when to keep things private,” he pretended to grumble.

“In this town?” she asked in mock surprise.

They all laughed.

With a smile of farewell, Jed wandered away.

The deejay had started a slow song, and in Kyle’s arms, Lizzie nearly floated around the dance floor in her simple but elegant white gown.

Cara sighed happily. “She looks like a princess, doesn’t she?”

“Yeah.” One arm around her waist, Wes kissed her temple and gave her that half smile she loved. “The maid of honor’s not too bad, either.”

“Well, thank you for the compliment, cowboy.”

“You’re not sorry we’re waiting?”

She shook her head. “Not a bit.”

Wanting all the attention to go to Lizzie’s special day, she and Wes had decided to hold off on their own wedding. In the meantime, Cara worked at the store during the day, then spent every evening at the ranch with Wes and Mark and Tracey before returning to the Hitching Post for the night.

Jed now sat at a table with Paz, Mo and Sugar.

“I’ll bet they’re up to some matchmaking business again.” Wes leaned closer and murmured, “Don’t ever tell anyone I said this, but I don’t know what I’d have done without that man’s interference.”

Cara smiled. “Same here.”

After all, thanks to Jed, she had the family she’d always wanted.
