The Counterfeit Cowgirl
“She wore an ancient t-shirt and a pair of shorts in preparation for a day of major housecleaning, but she was so stiff, she could hardly bend over. She crept into the crowded living room and reached for the shade covering the window facing the Whitaker spread. The shade flew out of her hand and rolled up with a loud rattle, and a blast of bright sunlight struck her eyes.
She studied Aaron’s smooth, manicured lawn with jealousy and tried to feel happy not to catch a glimpse of him. After all..., she had managed to shut the door on him the day before, the minute Becky’s rented car had disappeared down the road. Not even an indignant telephone call from Becky later that night could coerce her to spend the night at his house.
To his credit, Aaron had accepted her decision with good grace and sent his sister, accompanied by his two chocolate Labrador retrievers, over with a tray of hot food. Felicity had lacked the heart to refuse the food.
