FOUR PEAKS, ARIZONA
TANNER DUNN STRODE into the kitchen and headed for the
refrigerator. Morning chores were completed and two men were headed for
the western border of the ranch. He hated sending two men when they
barely had enough as it was, but after his father’s stroke out there alone, he
wouldn’t risk sending only one to ride the fences. Opening the fridge, he
grabbed a water bottle.
Brody walked in and sat on a stool at the massive kitchen island. “I’ll
take one, too.”
Tossing his youngest brother the bottle, he closed the fridge. “Is Dad
settled in?”
“I guess. It’s hard to tell.” Brody unscrewed the cap and tossed it into
the trash across the kitchen. “That’s not Dad in there.”
His gut tensed. He’d expected that reaction. “Yes, it is. He just has to
get better.”
“If he can get better.”
Tanner swallowed down half the bottle to avoid responding. It was the
same thought he’d had when he first saw Dad in the hospital. Seeing his
robust, energy-filled father lying in a hospital bed unable to talk or even
feed himself had been a shock. At least he was still alive. “He’ll get the best
care. Dad’s a fighter.”
“Have you heard from the Town Council? Maybe if Dad knew the dude
ranch thing had been approved, it would give him something to fight for.”
Personally, he’d been hoping the town wouldn’t change the zoning that
would allow them to become a dude ranch. The last thing he wanted was for
Rocky Road Ranch to have a bunch of city people roaming around who
didn’t know a horse’s head from its ass. But he also hadn’t figured out what
else they could do to save the place.
As the oldest, his dad’s stroke had
added more responsibilities to his shoulders than he’d realized. Unwilling to
allow his father to remain in the glorified nursing home called a
rehabilitation center, he’d added the care of his dad to the list. He wanted
Dad where he could monitor the care he received.
Silently, he swore. If it weren’t for Bill Hayden, they wouldn’t be close
to losing the ranch and his dad probably wouldn’t have had a stroke. The
Haydens were a greedy bunch, who just couldn’t keep their noses out of
other people’s business.
“Hey, someone just pulled up in a freaking sedan.” Brody grinned.
“Maybe it’s someone from the Town Council. I can’t think of anyone else
stupid enough to drive out here without a truck. They’re going to need a
major alignment after this.”
His chest tightened, his lungs getting very little air. If it was someone
from the town, their whole future was about to change, one way or the
other. Leaving the water bottle on the counter, he grabbed his hat off the
entry table, strode to the front door of their sprawling single-story adobe
home and opened it.
A woman with straight, almost white-blonde hair stepped from the
vehicle in a red fitted power suit and black high heels. She bent over,
reaching into the car, showing off her very nice ass before she pulled a
black leather satchel from the vehicle, threw it over her shoulder, and turned
toward him.
