Gretchen

Just who does this guy think he is, calling me last minute to book two cabins for an entire month — and after tourist season? It's the end of summer. I don't have time for a late-season renter, no matter how many hundreds he can peel off from his billfold. But everything has its price, and watching him peel off his shirt might be worth delaying my plans to settle down.

I'm looking for a remote cabin to hole up for the season. I'll pay any price, and the sexy resort owner is an added perk of the perfect Northwoods scenery. However, Gretchen makes it difficult for me to concentrate, especially when life isn't giving her the happiness she deserves — and that I know I could give her.
