Love Takes Time (Christian Romance) (18 page)

Of course, Connor did have options.  He could have sold the
place to Mr.
Anderlien
the hotel renovator and
developer.  The problem was that he didn’t like the man at all.  
Anderlien
wanted to modernize the place but Connor wasn’t
stupid.  He knew that was code for tearing down the building and replacing
it with all the cutting edge technology and design.  Basically, guys like
him would rip the heart out of the bed and breakfast and make it no different
than the big chains.  While it may make more money, it wasn’t what Connor
wanted.  There was no way he was going to sell.  His pride simply
wouldn’t allow it.  

That’s why Connor had taken on every task he could to make things
work.  Still, he was having a hard time with it.  If the fact that he
was behind on most of the bills wasn’t enough, he hadn’t been making enough
money to pay for the upkeep of the place so it felt like it was falling apart
bit by bit.  If he just had the money, he could fix the worn down
parts of the building but that still wouldn’t change the sad truth that the
customers simply were not coming.  

As much as Connor didn’t want to give up on his family’s legacy, he
knew the hard truth was that with the strain he was under financially, he
needed things to change fast or he’d have to consider whether it made sense to
keep it going.
