Free BREAKTHROUGH (Love's Not Easy Series Book 2) by Nicole Rickman

airport when she arrived in Neahovia.  She was so excited to be going back to Neahovia.  Being here the last few weeks with Opal and her family was nice, but Aimee felt, in her heart, Neahovia was the place for her.
     
    The next morning after the delivery guys left with the packages going to Neahovia, Opal was ready to drive Aimee to the airport.  Her plane didn’t leave until two and she had a few stops to make.
     
    The first was to the bank.  She wanted to check in with Mrs. Moon and assure that everything was in order for payment to the workers on the house.  She had an extra key made for Opal to the security box.  She took Opal to the box and replaced the Will and other papers back in the box.  She made copies of what she needed.
     
    The next stop was at Lilliend Rose Corporation office building.  Mr. Montgomery led her to the conference room.  All the VP’s were present.  They gave Aimee a going away present.  They gave her a new genuine leather laptop bag.  She loved it so much she exchanged the stuff in her old bag into the new case.
     
    The plane took off on time from Savannah; then, there was a forty five minute delay in Charlotte.  She would fly to Boston, where she had a three hour layover.  Once she was in Boston, she took a seat in the first class lounge and was reading in her mom’s diary when Claire, the lady she meet on the flight back to the United States, came and sat beside her.
     
    Aimee was unsure what it was about Claire, but she felt she could tell her anything.  They took a seat at one of the dining tables and ate their New York strip sirloin meal and dessert. She asked Claire about her sister, who was in stable condition now, after a rough few weeks.  She told Aimee about her sister’s health and the things she did while in Canada.  Time flew by when Aimee was talking with Claire; they were calling for boarding before she knew it.
     
    She happened to be seated beside Claire for the six hour and forty-five minute flight to London.  Once they had put their luggage in the overhead compartments, they settled in their seats and listened to the flight attendant go over instructions.
     
    Aimee sat in the extremely comfortable chair.  Claire waited for the attendant to finish talking before she asked Aimee about her summer vacation.  Aimee told her about what transpired at her dad’s. Claire was astonished as she listened to Aimee’s details about Lilliend Rose.
     
    “Aimee, you are such a smart nineteen year old lady.  I am proud you made the choice to finish your education.  As a business woman I feel you can never learn too much.”
     
    “I feel the same way.  I have had several breakthroughs the past few weeks.  One is that I want to do this for me and I want to glorify God as I do.  The other is, I still feel it is important to find out about my mom’s past.  It is because I want to put the puzzle of my life together, not about who I am because their past is not who I am.”
     
    “Well, I think you have done a lot of growing over the past few weeks.”
     
    “I feel I have learned so much about myself this summer.”
     
    “That is how we find ourselves. We learn from the lessons God provides us.”
     
    “I am learning that.  I still want to know as much as I can about my mom.  I feel I am more prepared to accept the things I learn.”
     
    “Really, why is that?”
     
    “I learned that my mom was engaged to RGA.  It shocked me at first, but Mrs. Opal told me about how she was in love before Charles.  It made me see that it was possible that my mom could love both my dad and this RGA fellow.”
     
    “Wow, what a breakthrough for you, as well.”
     
    “Yes, it was.”
     
    The flight attendant came by and offered them a snack, so they accepted and talked some more over tea and scones.  Then, they decided to lay back in the luxury chairs and take a nap.
     
    When Aimee woke, it was two hours later.  She requested a cup of coffee and read her
