Оглавление“The cavalry has arrived.”
Adding to her sarcastic comment, she looked at him as if he was the last person she wanted to see.
Didn’t she realize a man had nearly choked her and shoved her back into a tree hard enough to break her? He stepped closer. “Are you okay?”
She waved a hand, anger darkening her eyes. “I’m fine. Now, if you’re done playing the hero, I’m going to finish my run.” She started past Lucas with nonchalance, as if some assailant hadn’t just thrown her around like a rag doll.
He stepped into her path, his arms crossed over his chest. “You can’t pretend nothing happened here. The police are on their way.”
Everything about her hardened, from her expression to her posture. “You had no right to call them.”
Something flittered across his flesh, a chill, an instinct. Whatever he called it, it was what had kept him alive in the desert.
This woman was hiding something.
And he had to find out...before it got her killed.
