Chapter 10

Grant parked by the barn at about quarter after five. He headed inside, toward the sound of female voices and laughter. Seeing Joy and Tara striking a pose on some hay bales while Jenny snapped pictures with her camera brought him up short. Tara glanced in his direction, but she didn’t say anything. Jenny continued to take pictures of her and the cute, freckled redhead.

He leaned a shoulder against the door, crossing his arms over his chest as he watched. Jenny was completely engrossed, working the camera like a pro as she adjusted the lens and other settings. Tara whispered something, and Joy threw a handful of hay at her. Amidst the giggles, Tara held up a hand.

“Alright, enough.” She pulled a piece of hay from the front of her shirt. “Wes is going to wonder what I’ve been up to, and besides, Grant’s back.”

He straightened as Jenny swung around in surprise.

“I didn’t even hear you pull up.”

“When I said I might catch you in action, I wasn’t thinking this.”

Her smile held a tinge of self-consciousness as she lifted the camera. “I told them.”

“I figured.”

Tara stood up, brushing more hay from her jeans. “You mean he knows?”

“She had an issue with a closet door, and I saw her darkroom,” Grant explained as Jenny moved over to where she’d set her bag. “When I saw the photographs at the coffee shop and found out she worked there, I put two and two together.”

“Good looking and smart,” Joy quipped on her way past. “Keep an eye on this one, Jen.”

A pink tinge colored Jenny’s cheeks as she packed her camera away. “Tara, I’ll get these developed and then call you when I have everything together.”

“Sounds good.” Tara gave a wave on her way out. “See you both next week Saturday.”

Jenny picked up her bag and joined Grant and Joy by the barn entrance. “This was so much fun. You’re next Coffee to Chai For is on me.”

“You don’t have to do that, I’m glad to have help exercising the horses. Give me a call if you want to come out sooner than Saturday. Oh, and you might want to soak in the tub tonight—you’re going to be a little sore for a day or two.”

Jenny grinned. “Already on my agenda.”

Grant walked with Jenny to his car, wondering what else was on her agenda for the evening. He’d run some errands in Green Bay and picked up a little something, just in case. Not that he had an agenda, but after that earlier kiss, he had to agree with the Boy Scout motto: be prepared.

Jenny told him all about the afternoon on their drive back. Grant enjoyed listening to her enthusiasm, thinking she deserved every bit of joy she could find after what Roy had put her through. And it wasn’t just the horses. Telling Tara and Joy about her photography seemed to have given her a sense of freedom that animated her voice and brought a sparkle to her eyes.

On their walk inside the apartment building, however, she gave a low moan.
