  Everyone ignored him.

  “I’d better not come back out to that inn and find any selling going on,” Landon barked at our backs.

  No one listened.

  “Sometimes I feel like I talk and everyone just pretends my lips aren’t moving,” he grumbled.

  “That’s because you’re full of hot air,” Annie said.

  Landon narrowed his eyes. “Who told you that?”

  “Oh, we all told her that,” Aunt Tillie said, chortling as she dragged Annie and me down the hall. “We all told her that.”

  I couldn’t help but laugh. It was a happy ending for everyone, after all. Well, except for Landon.

  “Don’t worry,” Aunt Tillie said, reading my mind. “He’ll be fine.”

  “How can you be sure?”

  “I put a little something extra in the wine bottle I left in his truck,” she said. “He’s going to be thanking me for weeks after he drinks it.”

  “Why? Does it taste like bacon?”

  Aunt Tillie’s eyes were sparkling. “You’ll have to wait to find out.”

  I wanted to question her further, but I let it go. I was too tired to put up a fight. It had been a long few days, and a job well done. I was going to leave Aunt Tillie to her fun.

  “Oh, and don’t think I’ve forgotten about you,” Aunt Tillie said. “Your punishment starts tomorrow.”

  And, then again, the woman is evil incarnate. “Oh, come on!”

  Author’s Note

  I want to thank everyone who takes the time to read my novels. I have a particular brand of humor that isn’t for everyone – and I know that.

  If you liked the book, please take a few minutes and leave a review. An independent author does it all on their own, and the reviews are helpful. I understand that my characters aren’t for everyone, though. There’s a lot of snark and sarcasm in my world – and I know some people don’t like that..

  Special thanks go out to Heidi Bitsoli and Donna Rich for correcting the (numerous) errors that creep into a work of fiction.

  If you’re interested in my future works, follow me on Facebook, Twitter or join my mailing list. I do not believe in spam. I only announce new releases or free promotions.
