As she sat in her rocking chair, gazing up at thestars twinkling in the velvet night, she sighed. This was the weekend that she was supposed to have gone away for her 'special' time. But her friend had to cancel at the last minute. This could have been her Fantasy Weekend, but instead she was stuck here at home.

Alone.

She had gone to the book store earlier and boughtherself a few new books and some magazines when shehad heard the news. Getting up from her chair, she went inside to get herself a cool glass of iced tea and the magazines. It was too early for bed, so she lit up the oil lamp on the table beside her chair and settled in to do some reading.

Glancing at the index page, she read the first title:

My Weekend Fantasy..... by Nabiki

.How ironic!! she laughed to herself. Glancing at the next title in the list she wondered what it was about:

Pinehaven Lodge II ...... by Northstar

Without further adieu she started to read what someone else's Fantasy weekend had been about.

And so it begins........
