Оглавление“Are you trying to hide something?” Madelyn asked.
Zach’s cheeks warmed with irritation. She was overstepping her boundaries—big-time. “You need to tread carefully, Ms. Sawyer.”
“Is that a threat?” Her hands went to her hips.
That text message had done its job, it appeared, because the woman obviously didn’t have any faith in him.
“By no means is it a threat. I just think you’re not doing yourself any favors storming into town and making accusations.”
Flames lit in her eyes just as fireworks began exploding over the water. “Well, maybe you’ll believe me now that I really was attacked last night.”
He stared back, not one to back down. “I never said I didn’t believe you.”
“You didn’t have to. I could see it in your eyes.”
He crossed his arms, growing agitated. “Someone must really not want you here.”
“Exactly!”
“But why?” Why would someone feel this threatened by her? That’s what didn’t make sense. There were obviously things about Madelyn Sawyer that he didn’t know yet. “What aren’t you telling me?”
They stared at each other another moment. Tension crackled between them.
