Lancaster's Way #3: Pre-Loved.

I was kept awake by more weird dreams last night... they wake me up at the oddest times and this time it had to do with my boys from Lancaster's Way: Pre-Loved...

This is what I remember - that two of the hands are out riding fences after the rain and come across a shallow grave on the other side of the fence line. The police are called into investigate and this is what ensues...

Chester Roth (Chet) loves his dysfunctional sister and there isn't anything he wouldn't do for. That's the reason he now finds himself with sole custody of her two children when her life runs off the rails. Chet took the children and ran to the small community of Lancaster, needing to get as far away from his troubled sister as possible. He hasn't heard from her in nearly a year when all hell breaks loose.

Deputy Oliver Jones has the unfortunate task of informing Chester of his sister's Alicia's murder, most time the closest living relative is to blame and so far all the fingers are pointing straight at Chet. Alicia is a  woman Oliver is quite familiar with. What he isn't expecting to find is his son who has been missing for more than two years to answer the door. he would know those eye's anywhere.

Oliver wants his son back but Chet is determined to keep the children with him. Chet grudgingly allows Oliver to come and spend time with Ryan. Trying to hide his growing attraction to the deputy Chet has to work out  why someone is trying to ruin his life he needs all the help he can get even if it does come in the form of a sexy as fuck deputy.

The question is: Is Chet being set up as a scape goat for the real killer, or did he kill his sister in an effort to save his niece and nephew?

  1. Scapegoat, definitely a scapegoat. Maybe she was done in by the other child's father or her drug dealer; anyone but the good uncle.

    1. I was thinking along the same lines myself... Though I get an Inkling that the little girl has the same daddy as Kai (Riley's step son)

    2. Ooooo!! Evil Oriental drug lord sperm donor! I like it, so much potential for a good story. Let's find him and take him down. Keep listening to those voices in your head, they seem to have really good ideas.

    3. I will darlin'- only problem is they usually visit me at ungodly hours in the A.M. and won't shut up until I get up and write down what they have to say - this would be fine in Summer but at the mo we are in the middle of fricken winter - not so much fun.

  2. He is being framed. He didn't know she got in with the drug lord. But he will need a few friends with him and a love who he can trust
