The CLOSED sign would stay in the front window because he wasn’t ready to deal with people, but coming here to work offered his only chance at regaining some peace… some perspective, after all the surprises of the past weekend. Running the Members’ Meeting through his mind again and again was driving him crazy, yet he couldn’t stop. Zanna’s confession filled his memory: the way her hand shook as it covered her face… his name on her lips as she admitted she’d been wrong to betray him, to forsake the love he’d shown her. Jonny Ropp. Jonny Ropp! Of all the fellas she could have chosen… James walked through his large back room, where he parked wagons awaiting repair and the buggies and carriages that he was constructing for customers. It was a senseless exercise, second-guessing why Zanna had succumbed to such a hellion as Jonny Ropp. What James needed was work to occupy his mind, his hands. He perched on the stool at his workbench, where a large piece of creamy white upholstery leather awaited the clear beads and fake jewels that would transform a basic rig into a carriage fit for an amusement park princess.
