A Rich Man For Dry Creek / A Hero For Dry Creek - Plot & Excerpts
This day was so mixed-up, she was beginning to think she needed to start it over. After hearing Elmer and Jacob talk about reading Woman’s World, nothing should have surprised her.Nicki only had to open the door to the café to know the day had one more surprise for her. Everything was turned upside down inside the café too. Someone had strewn shiny red paper hearts all over the tables and floors. It looked as if there was something tacked to the walls, but she couldn’t see what it was because the lights had been turned off and the window shades drawn down.Without the morning light, the café was dim. It would be deep dark except for the individual candles burning at each of the tables and on the high shelves that lined the room. The yellow light coming from the candles made the black-and-white floor of the café gleam.Nicki sniffed. Gone was the smell of baking biscuits. In its place was the scent of raspberries and vanilla from the candles.“Linda?” Nicki called out.There was a love song coming from the radio in the kitchen that was so upbeat it would make a man on crutches want to start dancing.Nicki looked up at Garrett.
