"Steve's story! Oh My!"

Finally, finally, we get Steve's story! Steve is the fourth Marine brother and a twin. He vows and declares that there is no way he is going to get roped into love and marriage like his three older brothers.

He decides to visit Wanda, his Busha (grandmother) who knows just the girl for him. It is her next door neighbor, librarian Chloe. Chloe's car dies on her and she has to get to the library in a hurry for a mystery program that they are putting on. Wanda volunteers Steve to drive her. Chloe is dressed for the part as a dowdy secretary so Steve thinks nothing of it until he sees her late at night in her kitchen and notices that she is hiding under those dowdy librarian clothes. Now Steve wants to know why! He has already been burned badly by a woman he found out later only wanted to get serious with him because of the money he inherited.

Chloe is just out of a relationship where her boyfriend decides he simply cannot settle down to just one woman and implied especially not a woman like her. Steve is rich, good looking and a Marine. No way is Chloe going to become the least bit interested in him but Steve has a plan. They will pretend to become serious about each other so Busha will stop trying to set them up. Will this plan work or will it backfire?

I thoroughly enjoyed Steve's story! I'm just sorry that there's only one other brother left, Tom. These were wonderful, heartwarming and down right fabulous stories! Thank you, Cathie Linz, for the many hours of pleasurable reading! I hope you give us many more!
