No, not the story, story. 
But how the cover for A MARRIAGE-MINDED MAN (the next WED IN THE WEST book) came about.
When we give the Art Department information for our covers, they always ask for two or three scenes to choose from (although sometimes they decide to go with a more generic image that conveys a composite idea of the story, as they did -- for instance -- with FROM FRIENDS TO FOREVER). Since I'm a very visual type, and have an art background, I can pretty easily visualize at least two scenes that I feel would lend themselves to strong cover images.
Except this time, the cover image that came to me wasn't in the book.
Oops.
From the tiny seed of one story, a forest grows AND WE HAVE A WINNER!;-)
