Sadie made it through the next two days, with mixed emotions. Rafe had kissed her. She’d kissed him back and her stomach had been tied in knots ever since. She called her best friend, Amber, at long last and braced for a well-deserved tongue-lashing.

“Where are you? And why haven’t you been taking my calls?” Amber demanded the moment she answered.

Sadie rubbed the pain between her eyebrows. “Amber, I’m sorry. I’ve been a little freaked out this week.”

“About what? It has something to do with Andrew doesn’t it?” She said Andrew’s name like it was a dirty word.

Amber had never been a fan of Andrew, her fiancé, never trusted him. Nor did she like the fact that Sadie was settling and she’d been very vocal about it. Only agreeing to be her maid of honor because she’d decided to support Sadie in her march to unhappily-ever-after. Sadie hadn’t called her because she wasn’t prepared for I-told-you-so.

“Be nice, Amber. And yes, it has something to do with Andrew.”

“I knew it!” she erupted. “What did he do? Is the wedding off? Something just didn’t feel right at the party when you didn’t show up and he told that cockamamie story about you being sick. I went to your house and you weren’t there and I have been about to go berserk. Well if you’ve gotten my messages you should have a pretty good idea just how crazed I’ve been-”

“Amber-”.

“It’s a good thing you called today because I was about to go confront the man-”

“Amber stop. Take a breath. Breathe.”

“Okay, okay.” She huffed in a breath that could be heard across the phone line. “So, I’m good. Now what is going on?”

“Last Friday after I went to the hospital to visit the kids I went to Andrew’s to tell him that I was having second thoughts and that I wanted to call off the wedding-”

“Yes! Thank you, Lord. Seriously.”

Sadie had to hold the phone away from her ear because of Amber’s shouts of joy. “But when I got there he was engaged in some really heavy kissing with this gorgeous woman-”

“I knew he was a scumbag! What did you do? Did you hit him?”

“No, I got in my car and I started driving. I ended up in Mule Hollow with a flat tire and this really great cowboy came along and helped me fix it and…and he offered me a job as the cook on his ranch and I accepted.”

“Wait. You’re a cook? And you just took off and drove? And Andrew didn’t say anything about calling off the wedding.”

“Yes. Yes. Yes and I know. I just found out this morning when I talked to mother that he didn’t call off the wedding. I thought all the text messages from everyone asking if I was okay and how was I feeling was because the wedding was called off. But they were about me not feeling good.”

“I guess I should have clarified. So you’re working on a ranch? It sounds fun-except for the cooking part. And what about this cowboy?”

“He’s amazing.
