Joslyn forced herself to breathe, to relax. She had to stay calm, stay focused.
“Joslyn, come out or we’ll send Clay here to his stepdaddy in little pieces.”

The man shouted, “Joslyn, you come out right now, or I swear I’ll—”
Suddenly Clay snapped his head backward and clocked his captor full in the face. The man grunted, and Clay pulled free.
A gun went off.
