Prologue – Amanda’s final say . . .

Yeah, he walked away.

I didn’t even get a chance to ask him any of the questions that were burning inside me.

I wanted to know why I knew about Scott but not that overgrown oaf Seamus.

I wanted to know why we always met in New York. Not once had he ever invited me to his home in Apple Creek.

I wanted to know how he could love her and not me.

But I never got to ask him anything – I just let him walk out of my life as easily as he walked in. Once again Amanda Cory was left holding the largest portion of the heartache.

Oh, don’t get me wrong. I still love Carl. Madly love him. What other reason would I have for taking the card I found in Mom’s pocket? I don’t want to hurt her, but I couldn’t very well let her keep it.

Sometimes I get the impression she knows I took the card, but I’m not sure. It’s been months and she hasn’t confronted me yet. She’s my mother and I love her, but I love Him too.

Carl and I have had little contact since February, but that’s okay. I’ll just wait for my chance to work my way back into his world.

I’m more than willing to play whatever game it takes to get what I want.

Finis.
