Chapter Ten Dakota and Luke stayed in the bed for a little longer before getting up to make their return trip back to the bed and breakfast. Dakota dressed first, as Luke laid in bed and watched her every move. Then she threw his clothes at him and laughed as she crossed the room. While packing up their stuff from the kitchen area, Dakota said, "We need to...
The Matrons of Regal Bay Chapter 35 Rebecca's Tales -- Part 2 The casino was busier than Rebecca would have thought for a Tuesday morning. She was taking a few days off, one of those use-them or lose-them deals at the hospital. So, she was using them. It was odd for her to take much time off, let alone an entire week, unless she and her husband were going...
Luke crushed his empty beer can and tossed it into the back of his Chevy truck. She was late, and he was beginning to wonder if she had plans after work that differed from her week night routine. He watched Nina's windows with expectant eyes, drawing hard on his cigarette, and thinking about the last two years. He was here as often as he could be, and she ne...
Even before he opened his eyes, Luke Morgan knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that he'd died and gone to heaven. After six weeks on a cattle drive, eating dust and sleeping in a bedroll at night, he realized that his belly was full and he was lying in a soft bed on top of the woman who had occupied his thoughts for the last four years, with his head pillowed o...

He was standing at her door step, waiting to be invited in. Julia could all but stare at his tall, lean frame. He was certainly what many women would think as honestly, and sincerely handsome. Rugged, yet there was a touch of gentleness to him. She blushed when she realized she was staring, but she just could not help it. Smiling shyly, she stepped aside to...
"Well, we'd like to offer you the job." "Um; that's great," stammered Luke, his throat suddenly dry, "thank you." He couldn't believe it he thought the interview was going terribly. "I think you're really going to enjoy working here, and please, call me Debbie." She smiled as she stood up, her ruby lips parting slightly, "We'll see you at 9 o'clock, Monday...
Author's Note: As always, I am taking creative license with noble and royal titles and Austrian geography. Took a few days off writing for the Thanksgiving holiday so I hope everyone is still interested in the storyline. For those that have read some of my other stories, I have incorporated a few characters from those previous tales. I hope you enjoy the cro...
Sandra stopped in the doorway and soaked in the cool, regulated air of her home. She had spent the entire day running errands -- paying bills, meeting with event organizers, grocery shopping, and then just a few extra items that would make her husband Mark very happy. All of that activity combined with the summer heat had worn her out and her feet were almos...
It was an interesting sort of microcosm, this event. Luke looked around and smiled, at all the people in medieval garb, random weird tents, period items. Men splitting wood by hand, and all the strange accompaniment.
