Читать книгу The Rancher and the Vet - Julie Benson - Страница 4

Dear Reader,

For Avery’s story, I turned to an event from real life. My best friend Lori, executive director of The Hinsdale Humane Society, mentioned that the shelter owns their building, but the city of Hinsdale owns the land. While this has worked wonderfully for them since 1953, what if the situation suddenly changed? In The Rancher and the Vet, what if Avery’s shelter thought they owned the land, but discovered they didn’t when the owner’s heirs decide to sell the property? Suddenly the shelter needs to raise a huge sum of money. Then to throw Avery further off balance I had her first love, Reed Montgomery, waltz back into town.

I’d come up with a tortured situation for Avery, and then I turned to Reed. I made him responsible for the well-being of a teenager—a teenage girl, no less! Being the only female in a household of five, I’ve learned men and women see the world differently. While that definitely makes life fun, it also causes problems, as Reed discovers with his niece. I hope you enjoy Avery and Reed’s adventures.

Blessings, and remember—adopt, don’t shop!

Julie
