"Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana." - Groucho Marx
Four brothers living and working in Kalispell and the surrounding area. They are in order from eldest to youngest...
- Matt Wentworth - owner of the Belle-St Regis Hotel. He also works for the Secret Service (which no-one including his family knows about). His mission is to gather evidence against the Steelgraves to bring them to justice which is a difficult task.
- Mike Wentworth - Day Foreman at Lost Lake Ranch.
- Sam Wentworth - Ranch hand at Lost Lake Ranch.
- Charlie Wentworth - trainee ranch hand at Lost Lake Ranch. Works mainly around the main house and outbuildings e.g. barn at this point in time.
The brothers are expecting a visit from their father, Charles Wentworth Sr. (a mover and shaker in Washington D.C.) sometime in the spring of 1876. Wentworth Sr. will be trying to get Charlie to come back and finish college.
Three of the Wentworths work for Shade Thornton, so they are now aligned with him, especially where the Steelgraves are concerned. This connection will become even tighter in a plot where Matt Wentworth will end up marrying Sarah Thornton-Carleton, Shade's cousin.
If you have a character that ends up working at Lost Lake Ranch, you will be interacting with at least two or three brothers. Anybody staying at the hotel will interact with Matt.
There is a lot of scope for stories using one or more of the brothers. Just let me know if you are interested in having any of them join your plot.
The Dealer had a knife and the dog had a gun and the cat had a shot of Rye.
I will have to consider actual plots, but would love to keep developing Hannah Cory's friendship with Matt and maybe one or more of his brothers.
We'll get the Lost Lake brothers out on the range with Shade soon. He needs to get back into action!
And of course there is the ongoing and thus far shaky relationship with Charlie and Clara.

Since I will be marrying Matt off to Sarah, there's always the possibility with Mike or Sam since they are around her age. Matt could easily introduce her to one or both or them or they could each meet her separately. I can see something friendly rivalry between the two brothers trying to at least date her. Whether or not this turns into something permanent with one of them is something we can look at later on.

Potential romance with Sam or Mike could happen. Of course, they may not click. Regarding Matt, I knew he was going to be marrying your other character. I wasn't thinking a Matt / Hannah romance - just developing friendship as time goes on. Especially, if after Scott Cory (her pop) becomes mayor, she decides to leave her law enforcement career behind.

I am thinking that Sam and Hannah could be the potential romance. Mike will be a bachelor for a few more years (looking at his late 30s) but he can have a romantic relationship once in a while. Since it looks like Shade, Quentin, Matt and Sam may be going down the marital route, it will be good to have one single man in the group...potential matchmaking storylines.
