Pen would have liked to change into something more suitable for a wedding, but everyone here was in work clothes except the two grooms standing at the altar that had magically appeared, flanked by hundreds of blooms from Veronica Patton Butler’s flower farm.

Pen still couldn’t get over the fact that Veronica had married Jackson’s buddy David after Jackson disappeared.

She was the only person, as far as she knew, who realized that Jackson and Veronica had been crazy in love. Oh, not because either one ever acknowledged it, but mostly because of the twin bond. She and Jackson simply knew things about each other they didn’t even have to say out loud.

They’d shared a womb, a crib. Shared so many milestones, so many birthdays.

Tears burned her eyes.

You left me. How could you leave me?

And worse, how could you stay gone?

He was alive, she believed that to her marrow. She would know otherwise, she was certain. The part of her that had always belonged to him was dormant after so many years of pain…but it wasn’t dead, the way it would have been if he were gone from this earth.

But why? She understood why he’d wanted to get away from their father—the same man who treated her like his princess was brutally hard on her twin, especially after their mother died. Jackson was the only boy, and he had no interest in taking over the ranch. He was brilliant—seriously brilliant—at mathematics, and he’d always set his sights on something techie and exotic. He’d written computer games when he was ten years old that had kept them all enthralled, the Four Horsemen and her, as well. She wasn’t much on video games, but Jackson was her twin. He’d listen to her carry on about fashion, and she would test his video games. They were a team.

Until they weren’t. That horrific wreck in which Beth Butler had been killed had been something their dad refused to consider an accident. He’d heaped all the blame on Jackson’s head, and one day Jackson was just…gone. Their father had refused to even speak his name again.

The doors opened, and there stood Ruby and Scarlett.

Ian lit up like a Christmas tree, and Arnie was one big grin as grandmother and granddaughter escorted each other down the makeshift aisle, while Henry and—heaven have mercy—Walker Roundtree played guitars and sang, apparently as a favor to Josh. He’d pitched in on the work earlier, too.

Who would believe this, out in the wider world? Josh Marshall, Sexiest Man Alive and top draw at the box office, there wearing jeans and boots while the big time country artist Walker Roundtree played and sang in the tiny town’s abandoned courthouse, rigged up with homemade partitions covered with quilts and fronted by buckets of marigolds and celosia, all hot pinks, reds and oranges.

A whole community stood to watch and give its blessing upon two couples who were at the heart of Sweetgrass and the center of its hopes. Ruby had kept Sweetgrass alive, along with Ian, until Scarlett arrived and made them both whole.
