Jenny
“The news from the banker had not been good.
She had to admit that even though she'd put on a good show for them in the office, she was more than a bit scared about what the future held for the Lazy S.There was only one thing she was sure of-no matter what path she chose to take, the next few years were not going to be easy.The main buildings of the Lazy S came into view in the distance then, and Jenny reined in. She sat there quietly in the buckboard, surveying the scene below with new eyes. Th...e day before, she had seen only what her heart had wanted her to see. She had not taken the time to look at things critically, but had pictured the love and warmth she'd known existed there.

It was all too obvious that her father had not kept up the property as he should have. Things were starting to look a bit run-down. The revelation was startling to her and reminded her that her father had kept so much hidden from her about their financial troubles, even while he'd been sending money to her back East to pay for her expenses.MoreLess
