Chapter Two
    JUST THEN, her front doorbell pealed through the house. 
    Jumping up, Silver hurried down the hallway and then down the staircase. Through the glass windows of her door she could see a man standing there. 
    She went to open the door and he smiled at her. 
    That smile was a dazzling one and turned him into the most handsome man she had ever seen. When he turned those emerald green eyes on her, she nearly melted right there on the spot. 
    “Hi,” she said. “Can I help you with something?”
    “If your name is Silver, then I might just be able to help you with something,” he replied.
    “I’m intrigued,” she laughed. “Keep talking.”
    “I suppose I should introduce myself,” he said, joining her in laughing. “My name is Colton Pierce and I saw your ad for a landscaper.” 
    “It’s great to meet you, Colton,” Silver said. “So you’re a landscaper?”
    “In a manner of speaking, yes,” he replied. “It started out as a pretty serious hobby and then I decided that it was what I wanted to do all the time. If you need references, I’ll be happy to supply you with some.” 
    “References? Oh, I’m sure I don’t need any of those,” Silver laughed. “Why don’t you come inside and we’ll talk about it?”
    Stepping aside, she allowed plenty of room for Colton to enter her impressive foyer. His face had the appropriate expression on his face as he took in the décor. She had to smile as she always did when someone saw her house for the first time. It gave her a feeling of satisfaction to know that her home was a place of beauty, amazement and peace. 
    “Would you like a tour?” she asked Colton. 
    “I would love one another time, if you don’t mind. It does look remarkable just from here. But I have an appointment I need to make as soon as we’ve spoken about the job.” 
    “Ah, ok, that’s fine. Why don’t we go through here, then, and you can see exactly what’s involved?” Silver said as she led Colton down the hall and through to the back entrance. “I hope you don’t find it to be too much to take on. I was really hoping to get it restored to its former glory.” 
    “Well, let’s have a look,” he said and smiled that amazing smile once more. 
    Silver was very pleased to see the look on Colton’s face as he surveyed her garden. He didn’t speak for a full two minutes. She took that a very good sign so she remained quiet while he took it all in. Finally, he turned to her. 
    “Do you know what a phenomenal garden you have here?” he asked. 
    “Yeah, I kind of have an idea,” she said trying not to sound smug. “As you can see, there’s mostly maintenance involved but I don’t really want to take a chance on things getting out of hand. The one thing that I would like to add is a gazebo, but the rest of it doesn’t need any changes.” 
    He was nodding as she talked and looking around as if still taking stock of her lovely garden. She could almost see the wheels turning in his brain as he surveyed the area. 
    “I completely agree!” he said. “There’s nothing here that needs changed at all. As for the gazebo, I think that’s a great idea, depending on where you want to put it. I can actually do that for you.” 
    “Really?” Silver exclaimed. “I was worried that I was going to have to find some builders to do that for me. But if you can look after my garden as well as build a gazebo; that would be completely perfect!” 
    “So does that mean I’m hired?” Colton asked, smiling. 
    “Absolutely! I would be a fool to turn down such ability. Let’s go inside and talk terms.” 
    After coming to an agreement on a fair rate for them both, Colton got to his feet. 
    “I hate to rush off like this, but I really do need to make this appointment. I’ll be by tomorrow afternoon if that’s ok and get started with some of the weeding and sectioning off. We can also talk about the best place for that gazebo you
