I might just do the unthinkable. My baby bassets have been asking to go to the house of the giant mouse and pizza for some time now, and as an end of summer surprise I might just give in. Of course I will have to mentally prepare myself beforehand. Maybe a few bowls of Lucky Charms. How is it that a place that brings so much joy to kids can suck the life out of adults. I do have to admit though that I like the tickets you can win. When I find a ticket on the floor and no kids are around, I get all excited. It’s odd how creatures with such sticky hands can lose so many tickets. Don’t they understand it takes a thousand tickets to get that tiny toy whistle?

Alec’s life is at a stand-still. In the wake of his father’s death, he has withdrawn from everything and everyone around him. It’s all he can do to get out of bed each morning, let alone focus his energy on his wife, his business, or his best friend’s upcoming wedding. But his grief isn’t the only thing keeping him down. He’s also struggling to make a weighty decision…undoubtedly the most difficult decision he’s ever faced.
Rebecca thought she was doing the right thing by giving Alec his space. She’d hoped that once he worked through the pain of his loss, their marriage would be stronger than ever. But the more she tries to reestablish their connection, the more he seems to pull away from her. When he finally reveals what’s on his mind–a vision of their future that couldn’t be more different than hers–Rebecca realizes that she has her own choice to make.
The only thing that’s certain is that everything on the Flying W is about to change. Especially since the greatest test of their relationship is still to come, from a source neither of them would have ever imagined…
