Hunter’s muscles ached with fatigue after his long week of working at Lin Townsend’s farm and Faith’s spa. His body was screaming for a shower, a decent meal, and a nice long nap, but he was getting close to finishing Faith’s outdoor sanctuary and needed her opinion on lighting fixtures. Not to mention that he was dying to see her, to touch her, and to wrap her in his arms again.

It was late Friday afternoon, and darkness had fallen over the town of Keating Hollow. But the stars were shining bright, and he wondered if he could talk Faith into a stroll down by the river. His aching body be damned, all he really wanted to do was spend more time with her. He knocked on her office door and waited.

No answer.

He knocked again.

When he didn’t hear anything inside, he turned the knob and poked his head in. The office was dark. She’d already left.

Disappointed, he flipped the light on and headed to her desk, intending to leave a note and the fixture samples so she’d see them in the morning. But as he rummaged around for a pen and a piece of paper, he spotted a couple of old, faded pictures lying on her desk—pictures of a woman he knew. The woman who’d raised him since he was nine-years-old.

He dropped the light fixtures on the desk and held the picture up to the light to get a better look. He stared at Gia, his uncle’s long-term live-in girlfriend, the one he’d both loved and hated for nine years until he’d left his uncle’s house and moved out on his own.

What was Faith doing with a picture of his pseudo-aunt? He picked up the second picture and swore. Gia was front and center, with four little girls huddled around her. One had dark hair, and the other three were blond. He flipped it over and spotted the note scrawled on the bottom. Gabrielle, Yvette, Noel, Abby, and Faith Townsend.

He dropped the picture and shook his head. Gia was Faith’s mother? How was that possible? Why would Gia leave someone like Lincoln Townsend and four beautiful girls to live out in the middle of nowhere with Mason McCormick? But he suspected he already knew the answer. And he for sure didn’t want her bringing her troubles back to Keating Hollow.

After scrawling a note to Faith about the light fixtures, he pulled out his phone, took a picture of the photo, and sent a text to Vivian to let her know he’d be gone until the morning. Then he headed straight for his truck. He had a long drive ahead of him.
