Texas Bride
“Maddie stared toward the silhouette of the West Texas community with a mixture of relief and regret. She was only a three-hour ride from her ranch, but she was only minutes away from bidding Jonah a final farewell.
Her emotions had ebbed and flowed continuously during the day. So many warring feelings bubbling inside her that she couldn’t possibly sort them all out and address them one at a time. But she had vowed to cling determinedly to her self-control, and refused to succumb to another bout... of ungovernable emotion. Jonah’s last memory of her was not going to be that of a cackling madwoman.
“If you have it in mind to race home after supper, you can forget it,” Jonah declared as they reached the outskirts of town.
