Chapter 41: No Secrets
By three oclock that afternoon, Caldwell Ranch had been restored to normal. Jenny helped Cole untack the horses and put everything away in the barn. The canopies and coolers were returned to their proper places as well.
As they worked together, Cole was uncomfortably aware of the conversation he needed to have with Jenny. He wondered if he could put it off. It had already been a huge day for her. Shed faced her fear of being seen and he was proud of her, so proud. But this was one of those conversations best had sooner rather than later.
He cleared his throat. You know, I feel kind of sorry for Apollo and Dahlia. Everybody else got a nice workout today. They must be feeling a little left out.
Jenny chuckled, hooking a thumb at Jade.
Well, Jade, too. But Ive been working her hard, so she probably appreciated the day off. He stepped toward Jenny.
