The Trouble With Lacy Brown
“Steam boiled from it, tangling with the smoke curling from the engine. In his haste to get out of Dodge and away from Lacy Brown, he’d just driven off.
That walking tornado had wiped out his good sense. That would explain how he hadn’t given a thought to the damage to his vehicle or that it might not make the ten-mile trip back to the ranch. Now, stranded on the side of the road, he had to be content to wait for a ride or walk the last four miles home. He still needed a cup of coffee, but it lo...oked like today wasn’t his day for one, or anything else.
He owned a cell phone, but little good that did him out here in the bowels of Texas without reception. It was the luck of the day that this long stretch between Mule Hollow and the ranch was the deader than dead zone.
Outsmarted by a bunch of cattle thieves, then accosted by Lacy Brown, now this—what a combination. Of course, to be fair, he owed Ms. Brown an apology. It was his fault that he’d hit her car. No excuses, all that grief he’d given her about her insurance had been wrong.MoreLess
