Lovers' reunion

by Arlene Hale

Lovers' reunion - that was what the beautiful chalet in the Colorado mountains meant to lovely young Barbara Martin. She could hardly wait to get there and be with Jerry again.

But instead of a romantic reunion alone with Jerry, Barbara found herself constantly caught in a crowd of his friends, always feeling slightly left out.Perhaps that was why she was attracted to Damon Burch. It was so nice to be with someone who was interested only in her. And slowly Barbara began to wonder if she and Jerry were really for one another, or she might be happier with someone else - someone like Damon...
