Desert Rain
“Wind-driven clouds hid all but occasional pale flashes of moon.
Music rippled through the night, strains of a waltz that was centuries old. Countless strings of tiny white lights wove through trees and over fences, guiding people to the dance pavilion. The pavilion was just beginning to fill, drawing laughter and beautifully dressed couples into its billowing interior.
Some guests had attended the auction and barbecue and then gone to their nearby homes to change into evening clothes. Others had brought their formal clothes and changed in one of the McKenzies six guest rooms. Still others had simply attended the auction looking as princely as the Arabians they had come to admire and buy.
The mixture of fashion and elegant, silk-tasseled horses gave Holly the feeling of being transported to a fairy-tale world where gleaming Arabians pranced amid a diamond glitter of wealth.
Bemused by the transformation of Lincs ranch, she looked across the yard to where the auction was... taking place.MoreLess
