The Rancher's Reckoning

Summary

My wife, Vivian, lost a herd of cattle while she was out grazing them, leaving us with a fifty-thousand-dollar debt.

I loved her, so I spent three years pinching every penny, working every odd job I could find, until I finally scraped the money together.

But when I arrived, holding the stack of wrinkled, hard-earned bills, ready to pay off Vivian’s boss, I saw her. She was locked in a passionate kiss with Leonard, her childhood friend.

The boss, a man named Miller, was standing beside them, practically groveling as he offered Vivian a drink.
