Julie never strayed from the straight and narrow since entering the Mathison family. She offered a ride to a man who helped changed her flat tire but he was the criminal on the loose. Now, he kept her hostage and before long, took refuge in a beautiful retreat up in the Colorado Mountains. She plotted escape and was successful in duping Zack into believing she fell into the pond but Zack didn't try to make it back to safety. Instead, he gave himself the death sentence as punishment by lying shirtless on the frozen floor. At that moment Julie realized he was innocent. She helped him back to safety, and nursed him, never once thinking of turning him over to the authorities.
Zack (Zachary Benedict) was flabbergasted with the elementary school teacher who happened to be the daughter of a reverend and sister of a sheriff. She was passionate and sweet, with a heart of gold. Making love to her was a foregone conclusion. In so many years, he had never felt so at peace even though he was branded a criminal for the murder of his wife. The week with Julie at Colorado was like a beautiful dream but it must end. He would jeopardize her further by staying with her. He would let her go back to Texas. | ||
