conversation, he asked where she was off to on her own and she told him.
    "Coincidence, or what!" he exclaimed "I am heading to the same place, theres a small cottage I am interested in buying close by." he smiled "We must meet up for drinks while I am there."
    Mary hesitated and then replied "That would be nice!", wiping her hands on her napkin she said "I  better get going or I will be late checking in, nice to see you Sam and will see you again later."
    After they said their goodbyes Mary walked back to her car, and started her journey again.  With thoughts of Sam circulating in her head, he was tall, dark haired with a splattering of freckles on his nose, she hadnt noticed a wedding ring but that didnt always mean anything she thought to herself. Her husband didnt always wear his wedding band.  She herself had taken hers off before leaving, she had left it on the dresser in her bedroom.
    The heat spread through her body at the thought of meeting him later, she was definitley attracted to him. But being married Mary felt guilty for even looking at another man. But figured she had runaway from her family, maybe some excitement was what she needed.
    Chapter Three
    Arriving at the quaint bed and breakfast Mary smiled, this place was a slice of heaven. The garden was full of flowers, fountains and little benches to sit on. She figured it would be adorable in the evenings.
    Walking up to the door she rang the bell, a little plump woman with greying hair arrived and welcomed her in, "You must be Tracy?" she said, "Welcome, your room is all ready for you, and dinner will not be long you must be hungry after your  journey. Hope you like chicken pie, if you dont I can make something else." She said.
    "No chicken pie sounds delicious I cant wait" she laughed but felt slightly guilty for lying about who she was. This woman seemed such a genuinely nice person.
    After being shown to the cosy room, with a window overlooking the delightful garden, Mary freshened up in the en-suite room. She sat on the bed and felt how comfortable it was and decided she was really going to like it here. She had a selection of books in her case and planned on totally relaxing for the next few weeks. Well, until she decided what to do with the rest of her life.
    Making her way back downstairs to the friendly dining room she noticed there was only one other person there and it was Sam, he waved her over to his table.
    "Hi," he said "come sit with me, no point us sitting alone when we have already met" he patted the seat next to him, but Mary chose the one opposite him figuring that would be too close for comfort.
    When she sat down Martha the little old lady came out with two steaming dinners and placed them infront of them.
    "Thanks Martha these smell delicious as always" Sam commented and Martha blushed, then offered them a pot of tea, Mary and Sam both nodded and began tucking into their meals.
    After they finished eating Sam spoke "so what is your name?" Mary replied "Its Tracy"
    "Nice name Tracy, after our dinners settle how would you fancy a stroll in the moonlight with me?" He tilted his head to the side and awaited her reply.
    "Erm sure why not!" Mary was just buzzing on the inside.
    They made their way outside and began walking towards the bubbling river that they could hear in the distance.  The gravel paths where surrounded by greenery, the place was tranquil. Just what Mary needed to think through her future.
    They talked and Sam told her that he bought properties and rented them out either as holiday homes or residential homes, renovating them if he needed to, but preferring the traditional look. Mary told him she was simply trying to find herself, not denying her family just not talking about them.
    As they got closer to the bubbling river Sam took Marys hand in his and said "I am so glad I met you Tracy, otherwise this trip would have been like any other boring business trip" He smiled and said "I may even extend my visit for a few days!"
