Ep 2. They Called Her Delilah

Victoria is hosting a charity event at the Barkley mansion for a group of underprivileged children when she is approached by a woman named Lorna Michaels who claims to be Heath's wife. While they are talking, a man named Harry Wade shows up and accuses Lorna of being a con artist who has stolen money from him. Lorna denies the accusation and tells Victoria that she needs help to clear her name.

Heath arrives back at the ranch to find Lorna waiting for him. She tells him that she is in trouble and needs his help. Heath is shocked to see her, as he believed that she had died five years ago. Lorna tells him that she was in a terrible accident and lost her memory. She then fell in with a bad crowd who convinced her that Heath was dead and took advantage of her.

Heath agrees to help Lorna, but he is torn between his loyalty to her and his loyalty to his family. He decides to investigate Harry Wade's claims and discovers that he is a notorious con artist who has been targeting wealthy widows. Heath confronts Wade and manages to get the evidence he needs to clear Lorna's name.

However, when Victoria discovers that Lorna is still alive, she is furious with Heath for not telling her the truth. Heath tries to explain that he didn't want to upset her, but Victoria is hurt that he didn't trust her enough to confide in her. Meanwhile, Lorna decides to leave town, feeling that she has caused too much trouble.

In the end, Heath and Victoria reconcile, and Heath promises to be more honest with her in the future. The charity event is a success, and Victoria is praised for her generosity and kindness. However, as the episode ends, Heath is left to ponder the complicated relationships in his life, and the difficult choices he must make in order to protect the ones he loves.
