It's the early days of their engagement and Georg discovers that his fiancée is an avid horse rider...and that she also misses it terribly. He proposes that they go riding the following morning and Maria is simply ecstatic, but, as always, they'll end up getting more than they bargained for. / Just a sweet, romantic and slightly steamy story about Maria and Georg.

Three weeks away from the wedding, Maria finds herself between a world she used to know and a world she'll have to know. She desperately needs to get closer to her fiancé, but what will happen when things are not going as she had imagined them?

Matt & Kitty met 3 1/2 years ago. An unseasonably warm May day brings out another side of Matt Dillon. He takes advantage of the weather & the relative quiet of his town to take the half owner of the Long Branch for the past year for some nighttime fishing. This romantic interlude was inspired by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band song of the same title as my story.

Opening the door to a future together...A story to fill in the gaps to Maria & Georg's happily ever after. Beginning just before the wedding and honeymoon - Love Reviews, thanks for reading

For the first time in her life, Maria was content. Her seven charges were wonderful and even their father was starting to come around. She tried not to think about the fact that she would be leaving soon. Though it broke her heart, she couldn't stay forever. After all, she was only the Governess. (Kinda AU, I guess).
