The Well of Three Echoes — Ann Boyle

For Lovers Only…

If a girl caller her sweetheart's name into the well at Three Echoes Inn and it came echoing back three times, her love was true. But if his name returned only once or twice, he did not love her…and if there was no answering echo at all, he was unfaithful. Andria Brent didn't believe the legend that came with the rundown desert hotel she had inherited from her father, any more than she believed in marriage -- not even to her talented guitar-playing beau, Ray Elgin. And she would have preferred a well with water in it, not echoes, because somehow the inn must make a living for her and her Aunt Kate. But if Andria didn't believe in the legend, others did. Mark Weston the redheaded editor of the Japonica Jugget, whose father had built Three Echoes inn -- and lost it in a poker game, and Pearl and Joe Heath, whose love had passed the well's test…and Aunt Kate, who knew that if anyone needed to listen to the well's message, it was Andria.
