When I think of the Gallatin Canyon, I remember rubber gun fights at our cabin, hikes to Lava Lake and stopping by Bessie and Russell Rehm's place near the current Big Sky. Russell is gone now, but I will always remember Bessie's cooking—and the treat she used to make me at her ranch in Texas: a mixture of peanut butter and molasses. I still make it, and I always think of Bessie.
This book is for you, Bessie. Thanks for all the memories!
The shotgun felt heavy in her hands as she started toward the back door…
Dana heard the creak of a footfall on the porch steps. Another creak. The knob on the back door started to turn.
She raised the shotgun.
"Dana?"
The shotgun sagged in her arms as the back door opened and she saw Hud's familiar outline in the doorway.
He froze at the sight of the shotgun.
"I didn't hear you drive up," she whispered.
"I walked the last way so your visitor wouldn't hear me coming and run. When I didn't see any lights on, I circled the house and found the back door unlocked—" His voice broke as he stepped to her and she saw how afraid he'd been for her.
He took the shotgun from her and set it aside before cupping her shoulders in his large palms. She could feel his heat even through the thick gloves he wore and smell his scent mixed with the cold night air. It felt so natural, she almost stepped into his arms.
