Bobbie Ludington shifted her truck into park and cut the engine. It was
a chilly Wednesday morning in her tiny town of Cupid Ridge,
Nevada, but she wouldn’t bother with a coat. No, that would get in the
way of making a big first impression when she walked through that door.
After looking around the tiny parking lot next to the diner, she pushed
open her truck door and climbed out. She almost shut the door before
grabbing her purse. Almost. But she remembered the non-prescription
glasses she’d ordered online for this very thing. Her vision was perfect, but
glasses made her look smart.

Today, she needed to look smart.
Bobbie’s footsteps were confident, her head held high as she marched
straight toward the Cupid Ridge Diner. There were several trucks in the lot,
including the gigantic black one that belonged to Augustus Knott. She’d
know that truck anywhere. Everyone in town knew that truck.
“Arrogant so-and-so,” Bobbie grumbled to herself, shaking her head as
she rounded the corner of the building toward the diner’s front door.
Her husband could’ve handled Augustus Knott with ease. He’d have
wiped the floor with the guy and that self-satisfied smirk of his. But her
son, Brendon, was on the way, and as long as she had one of her boys here,
she’d be perfectly fine.
Once she reached the door, though, she stopped short. Through the
window, she saw two lawyers, along with Augustus, known as “Gus,” and
Gus’s son Phoenix. Augustus hadn’t just shown up. He’d brought his oldest
son and loudest proponent. Yeah, she’d definitely have to bring her A-game
today.
The air whooshed around the door as she tried to push it open. Not an
easy feat. Luckily, by the time everyone at the table turned to look at her,
the door had slammed behind her.
They didn’t just look at her. They stared. Gawked, really. She’d spent
plenty of time around the two attorneys. They shouldn’t be all that surprised
to see her confidently walking toward the table. There was only one
explanation she could think of for the way they were staring at her.
The glasses. It had to be the glasses.
“Good morning!” she said, holding her head high and her shoulders
straight. She stared directly at Gus. “Nice to see you again, Augustus.”
“Nice to see you, Roberta.”
She almost winced at his use of her full name. Nobody called her
Roberta. Nobody. But very few people called him Augustus, so she
supposed what was fair was fair.
A long silence fell over the room, hanging heavy between them. Bobbie
was more than willing to take charge of this meeting if nobody else did. In
fact, that might be a great way to show Gus and his son that they weren’t
going to push her and her son around.
“Let’s all have a seat,” Clayton said.
