“I hope things turn around for you, Mr. Tyler,” she said, sounding surprisingly sincere.  Then she turned and made her way down the porch steps.

Cade watched her go, guilt dragging his mouth into a frown. 

Suddenly, she stopped and spun around.  “If you happen to change your mind,” she said, holding out her business card, “here’s my cell number.  I’ll be in town, having a much-needed glass of Chardonnay.  This hasn’t exactly been one of my better days either.”

He took the card and stood watching as she walked back to the sleek, red Corvette.  She settled herself behind the wheel and, without another glance his way, started the engine and drove off in a spiraling trail of dust.

Cade cursed the mess his life had become and headed for the barn.  This day had to get better.  It certainly couldn’t get any worse.

Or could it?

As if in answer to his question, thunder cracked overhead and the skies let loose.
