“I’ll marry anyone who will take me!” Hazel declared loudly. “I don’t need love!”

“Get down!” Will hissed. “You don’t know what kind of people are lurking around in here! Talking like that might get you killed!”

Hazel Dixon thought she was putting her troubled past behind her. But when the person she thought she trusted most betrays her, she loses her head and proposes to an entire bar full of strangers. 

Enter Will Sheffield, a charming stranger who decides to take her up on her offer to save her from herself. 

He spoils her rotten without expecting anything in return and Hazel's confusion only grows. She doesn't know why he is acting this way. Or why he reminds her so much of the 'dangerous' childhood friend she thought was gone forever...

Hazel in the Demon's Den

The gallery showcased art for sale by a bunch of different local artists. Hazel thought that was a pretty cool idea. It gave the artists a chance to get noticed. Whoever opened this place must really care about supporting young talent.


She had fun perusing the various paintings and sculptures in the main gallery. While everything had different styles and color schemes, it somehow all fit together. Whoever set this up had a good eye.


After wandering around for a while she needed to go to the bathroom so she followed the signs down a hallway in the back. On her way there she noticed a plaque that said 'Owner's Private Collection' and below it in smaller letters 'Not For Sale'.


Hazel decided to check that out on her way back from the bathroom. Based on the good taste exhibited in the front room, she was curious what the private collection would look like. The owner must be a real art lover and not have enough space in their house to hang everything.


It Couldn't Be!
