The words repeated in the slap of the car's worn tires against the highway as Kate Wallace headed west out of Burnet and into the heart of the Texas Hill Country. But here she was, doing exactly that. And not a bit happy about it. She took the curve on Highway 29 too fast. As the car leaned into the turn, Kate put her hand on the elderly buff cocker spaniel sleeping next to her to make sure the dog didn't fall off the seat.
Why was she in such a hurry? It wasn't as if the town of Silver Lake would disappear if she dawdled.
Slowing, she headed north on County Road A. Within a few minutes, she was speeding through rolling hills, past the thick groves of trees and the shimmering green grass that covered central Texas in the spring. Here and there, she spotted patches of bluebonnets, promises of the beauty to come. Twenty minutes later, she pulled off the highway at the top of the hill that overlooked Silver Lake and kept the engine running.
Scratching her dog Coco's ears, Kate breathed in the spicy scent of cedars as she studied the town spread out below her. At twenty-one, she'd left Silver Lake with a brand-new degree in journalism and her entire future ahead. Without a backward glance, she'd shaken the dust of small-town Texas off her feet and headed to the big city. Twelve years later, here she was, back in Silver Lake without her youth and confidence and missing a few other things, as well. She closed her eyes, trying to replace the view of the small hill-country town with the towering buildings of New York and Houston and the pulsing rhythms of Miami, the cities she'd loved so much.
No doubt about it. She was in Mesa County, Texas. She glanced at her watch. She could sneak into town. With everyone shopping in Austin or Granite Falls, the square would be deserted. Not that anyone would recognize her now. She was thirty-three and looked every day of it. Her silver-blond hair had darkened over the years and she'd chopped off her long curls six months ago.
Coming home wasn't her choice, but it was the only remaining option. When her sister Abby's e-mail had arrived three weeks earlier asking Kate to come home and care for her after shoulder surgery, she'd grabbed the opportunity to escape. She shifted out of Park and stepped on the gas. When a chatting group of people stepped off the curb, Kate returned to reality, slammed on the brakes and stopped inches short of them.
Thank you, Lord, she whispered, a little surprised at how good that short prayer felt. She couldn't remember the last time she'd said one. On the sidewalk stood Sara Arroyo, her former best friend.
Return to Dry Creek. Inglese Opzioni di download: Kate should jump from the car and apologize for dropping out of sight. When she shoved the door to the small first-floor apartment open, she found a room empty of furniture but with a heavy covering of dust and a few cobwebs. Are there more important things in life, like love, friends and family? Cowboys of Eden Valley. Three bedrooms and a bath on each side before a right turn into the other wing.
She'd changed, but no one else in town had hair that dark and full and beautiful. Kate should jump from the car and apologize for dropping out of sight. She should tell Sara she was home and they had to get together. Today she wanted to slink back into town. Besides, Sara held the hands of two children. Kate didn't want to interrupt whatever they were doing, an explanation even she recognized as a terrible excuse. She followed the curve for another block as she drove between rows of towering live oak trees dripping in Spanish moss until she stopped in front of the three-story Victorian house that used to be home.
The house appeared exactly as it had when she took off, the walls still pale yellow with the gingerbread trim painted green, pink and lavender. In the noonday sun, the house, a national historic home, shone like the multicolored jewel she was. Kate hit the trunk latch and got out of the car. After grabbing a couple of worn Louis Vuitton suitcases from the back, she toted them around the passenger side of the car and opened the door.
She snapped on Coco's leash and lifted the dog out of the car and onto the grass.
Matching Coco's pace, she ambled to the porch steps where the little dog tried to climb the first step but couldn't lift her arthritic rear leg. The cocker slid down to the stones of the sidewalk, her soft brown eyes focused on Kate, and gave her a "Woof. Old age must be tough. She wore pink slacks and a black-and-pink-striped T-shirt. With her hand, the child combed out tangles in her straight brown hair.
Who else could she be but her niece? She had Abby's small bones and beautiful features.
I'm your aunt Kate. When she reached the landing, she said, "My mother's at work. It wasn't as if Kate were a guest or helpless. She'd grown up here and could find a room for herself. She climbed upstairs and looked down the long hall. Three bedrooms and a bath on each side before a right turn into the other wing. First comes baby…then comes love?
