Part of Miss Julia, book 4
First published 2004
Miss Julia watches her gentleman friend Sam transform before her eyes. He starts wearing cowboy boots, sending her flowers, and composing terrible poetry. When Sam arrives on a Harley-Davidson Road King and invites her to climb aboard, she decides he has completely lost his senses. But Miss Julia faces a more pressing crisis. Her trusted housekeeper Lillian has been thrown out of her home by a ruthless landlord who wants to demolish the property. Miss Julia realizes that Lillian's desperate situation outweighs her own terror of motorcycles and potential embarrassment. She agrees to join Sam's motorcycle poker run, hoping to raise enough money quickly to rescue Lillian's house from destruction. Miss Julia prepares to risk everything in Sam's sidecar, but she wonders whether her dangerous plan can possibly succeed in time.
