Mack smiled and waved. “Hey, Dan. Finished at the granary, are you?”
“Yep.”
How could she have been in town all this time without having seen the man before? Not at Sunday services or church socials, not in the shops in town or on the roads to and from Eagle Pass. As Mack threw his gear into the back of the wagon, Dan’s gaze locked to hers.
If she’d ever seen bigger, bluer eyes, Levee didn’t know when. Shining, golden curls peeked out from under his hat brim, and then he smiled, reminding her of how it feels to glimpse the sun after days of dreary rain. The warmth of it tingled from the roots of her hair to the soles of her stockings.
About the Author
Long before becoming a writer, best-selling author Loree Lough literally sang for her supper. She enjoyed receiving rave reviews and applause and touring the country but sensed it wasn’t what the Lord had in mind for her. She tried everything from shrink-wrapping torque wrenches to spinning pizza dough to working as a chef in a nursing home kitchen, to name just a few, without finding one job that fit her. Then, while visiting her parents in Baltimore, Loree worked for an insurance corporation, where she met the man she would marry.
Loree began writing when her husband, Larry, had a job change that moved the family to Richmond, Virginia. She started out writing a neighborhood column and soon began getting assignments from the publication’s editor—as well as the editors of other publications. But it wasn’t until she penned her first novel, the award-winning Pocketful of Love, that Loree finally understood what the Lord had in mind for her: seventy-three books (and counting) later, she’s still touching the hearts of readers worldwide.
In addition to her books, Loree has sixty-three short stories and 2,500 articles in print. Her stories have earned dozens of industry and Reader’s Choice awards. Loree is a frequent guest speaker for writers’ organizations, book clubs, private and government institutions, corporations, college and high school writing programs, and more, where she encourages aspiring writers with her comedic approach to learned-the-hard-way lessons about the craft and industry.
An avid wolf enthusiast, Loree is involved with the Wolf Sanctuary of Pennsylvania. She and Larry, along with a formerly abused, now spoiled pointer named Cash, split their time between a remote cabin in the Allegheny Mountains and a humble house in the Baltimore suburbs.
