MasukThe Milford Vineyards of west Kentucky are beautiful and lined with row after row of lush grape vines. As Willa drove past them she thought back to her childhood days spent with her best friend Kaysea Milford running down the grape laden rows. Today Kaysea's family was throwing a wine tasting party to celebrate the launch of their newest red wine. It was sure to make a grand mark amongst the nation's red wines. After college Willa and Kaysea both went back home to join their family's prospective businesses. Neither of them were lacking for anything as both family's were very well off. Willa's family owned a large dairy farm just to the east of where the Milford's land was situated. The Stockholm Farm spanned thousands of acres and many grocery stores in the state as well as others in the country were being supplied with filtered milk from their dairy. Two generations of the Stockholm family had been working the dairy farm and making the business a billion dollar entity. The day Willa went to the Milford's wine tasting party she encountered Grey Langly. The real-estate tycoon from Frankfort who was an architect by trade. She accidentally bumped into him while carrying a glass of red wine in her hand and spilled the contents down the front of her dress. "Oh my!" "Pardon me miss" exclaimed Grey! "Let me get you something to wipe up that mess." When Willa locked eyes with Grey she instantly fell silent and couldn't speak. His dark eyes and handsome face rendered her speechless. She couldn't move and her heart raced. "Are you ok?" Grey asked. Kaysea immediately walked over to rescue Willa from the embarrassing situation. Grey, let me introduce you to my best friend Willa Stockholm.

By the way Grey was looking at her, she could tell that he was very pleased with her answer.“I just want to hug you so bad right now, but your ribs are bruised so I will control myself.” Grey said with a huge smile on his face.Cal looked away as he seemed embarrassed. Then a nurse appeared with a clipboard in hand. “I’ve got your discharge paperwork here Ms. Stockholm. I bet you are ready to head home?”“Yes, I am. This man of mine wants to carry me away and I think I will let him. Life’s too short to keep a good thing waiting.” Willa grinned at the nurse while she checked her ID bracelet that had been placed on her wrist and wrote something down on the clipboard. “By the way, do you know what room my sister Rainey is going to be staying in after her operation? That way I can call her later on when she wakes up?”The nurse looked at her and then at Cal and said, “I don’t know, but I will find out for you. She won’t be coming back here if she has a p
Dr. Mead finally arrived to set Willa’s arm in a cast shortly after Tricia left. “Sorry for keeping you here so long, Ms. Stockholm. We have had quite the busy day with the restaurant accident. Your x ray shows a clean break of the forearm so I will go get what I need to cast it and hopefully have you on your way to being discharged. In the meantime if you need anything, just press your call button and ask for Dr. Mead.” He smiled and turned to walk away.A nurse came over to place some items on the table in front of Willa. She said, “He’s very good at setting broken bones. Yours is not out of place much so it won’t be too painful. On a scale of one to ten, how is your pain right now?”“Uhm like a four, maybe a five.” She looked hesitant at Grey and then back at the nurse.The nurse nodded, listened to Willa’s pulse, took her blood pressure, and temperature. Then she asked her a few questions that had already been asked before when she got the stitches done. She made some n
He rushed over to Rainey’s side and grabbed her hand. “Hi honey, your parents are here! Everything is going to be alright. I just know it.” He tried to be positive for her sake and then leaned over and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.Rainey observed him for a moment when he pulled away and then said, “Sweetie, have you been crying? Don’t worry. I’m fine. This is just a little set back. The good news is that my back is not broken! The kind doctor will fill you in.”Martha and Trevor quickly walked over to the other side of her bed. “That is wonderful news! So just the broken leg, huh? But what exactly is going on with your back then?” Martha asked. Rainey looked really groggy, probably due to the pain meds that she was given. So Martha didn’t press her too much, because she looked so tired and frail.Trevor held onto his wife while at the same time looking for answers from the doctor. “Doctor, this is our daughter. Give it to us straight. Ok?”“Absolutely! First
Tricia placed a call to Trevor just as soon as she hung up the phone with Mason. Trevor didn’t answer on the first try as he was helping Martha back into the house after her visit to the doctor. She had received another round of chemotherapy today and was feeling very tired.After getting Martha settled in, his phone rang again and he answered Tricia’s call. “Hi Tricia! This must be really important for you to be calling me. Can’t Willa settle this matter for you? Martha had chemo again today.”Tricia took a long breath and said matter of factly, “Trevor the girls were involved in an accident over lunch. I’m sure it’s all over the news right now. Ruckers got hit by a car and Willa and Rainey were up front. I’ve already informed your pilot to fly you and Martha to Frankfort Regional. He should be arriving any minute. Willa has a broken arm and head trauma, but walked out of the restaurant on her own. Rainey on the other hand is in an unknown condition as she was pinned unde
The remainder of the week flew by. Trigger slowly regained his strength and the vet was able to let him get back out into the pasture. Of course, the stablehand did a thorough sweep of the grounds to make sure that there weren’t any items he could eat that would cause him trouble again. The Thurs
“What happened? Why did you leave work early? Tricia wouldn’t give me any details. She just said that you had a situation at home.” Kaysea sounded frantic. “Calm down Kaysea! It was Trigger. The stablehand found him laying down in the paddock earlier today so dad called me just in case thing
Willa headed back up to the office and Tricia handed her a stack of memos. “Your dad said you could handle these. He left to go look after your mom this afternoon. He thought you would be back earlier so he could talk to you himself. Give him a call if you need something, otherwise I’ll be here
Willa sat down and took a long sip of her water. Why was Grey sending her flowers after a simple lunch date? Did he treat all of his lunch dates like this or was she reading too much into this? She picked up her phone and sent him a quick message.‘You didn’t have to send over flowers. They rea
