Lance couldn’t sleep. He couldn’t sit still. His thoughts were ricocheting through his mind like stray bullets.

Tricia was pregnant!

Despite his protests, Lance didn’t have any real doubts he was the father. In all the time he’d known Tricia, he’d never known her to be involved with anyone. She’d always only had eyes for him. “Fuck! Fuck!” he bellowed to the heavens as he galloped through the night, trying to clear his head. Staying inside the cabin made him feel boxed in, he couldn’t breathe. What the hell was he going to do? As harshly as he’d treated her, there was no way Lance could walk away from his child. But before he did anything, he needed to get his act together. He needed answers. Reining in his horse, he climbed down to sit on a felled tree, staring off into the valley below. As soon as dawn lit the eastern sky, he’d call Tricia. This time he’d listen, he’d be civil.

But when he tried, she wouldn’t pick up. All his calls went straight to voicemail.

…At the shop, Tricia met with her small staff in the office before the shop was due to open. Bryn had come in for an interview and Tricia hired her on the spot. The woman’s personality brightened the room. She had an infectious laugh, a sweet smile, and the prettiest auburn hair Tricia had ever seen.

Since it was Saturday, Kristen was here all day, or at least until it was time to get ready for her date with Nathan McCoy.

“Aren’t you going to answer that?” Bryn asked, staring at Tricia’s cell phone vibrating and buzzing on the desk.

Glancing at Lance’s ID, Tricia said simply, “No, I’m not.”

Since the other two women were checking out the phone, Kristen leaned in to read the name on the screen. “Lance Rogers.” She raised an inquisitive eyebrow to her boss. “I’m not sure what happened between the two of you, but I assume it’s over?”

Tricia laid a folder over the offending cell. “Completely over.” She felt her cheeks grow warm. “Since I need you girls to help me guard the gate, I’m going to be honest with you. Kristen, you already know about my medical…issues.” She turned to her new employee. “Bryn, one of the reasons I needed you is that I have recently been diagnosed with epilepsy.”

Bryn drew in a surprised breath. “I’m so sorry.”

Tricia shook her head. “It’s no fun, but I grew up with it.” She shrugged. “I thought I’d outgrown it, I had no symptoms for a number of years. A couple of weeks ago, I hit my head in a small wreck and suffered a seizure. I’ve had three others since then. I can function, I intend to function…but I need help. I can’t risk driving.”

“Don’t worry.” Bryn assured her. “I’ll do anything I can to help.”

Tricia glanced from Bryn to beautiful Kristen. “To complicate matters, I’m pregnant.”

Both girls squealed and Tricia laughed. “Yes, I’m happy too.” Picking up her phone, she pointed to it.
