Teaser/Excerpt:

“We have room for one more if you need a lift,” Josie invited with a smug tone of satisfaction.

Dust shoved his hands into his front pockets and looked down at the road. “I’m good,” he replied, running the toe of his tennis shoe along the rough pavement.

There was no mistaking Josie’s unladylike snort. “Yeah, well, I’m sure as hell not. Do you have any idea how many back roads and potholes I’ve driven over the last three weeks? I’m surprised this thing is still running. Besides, we could always use a good mechanic on board. Randolph doesn’t know shit about working on engines,” Josie retorted.

Behind Josie, Dust heard Randolph’s sarcastic response to the jab. “Ha-ha, Josie. I don’t see you fighting us to get under the hood,” Randolph replied.

“Uh, Randolph, you might want to watch it or Josie might follow through with her threat to leave you behind,” Denise warned him with a pointed look.

Makayla froze on the step leading down into the galley. Her gaze was locked on the scattered items that she had purchased from the market. Her hand trembled on the teak handle that she was holding. Her eyes were on her wet clothes, they had been moved. “Someone’s been here since I left,” she whispered, turning to look at the woman with her. “Things have been moved.” Helen nodded and pulled the gun at her waist. Her gaze moved over the items. She jerked her head toward the bow of the sailboat. “It’s the sleeping area,” Makayla murmured, glancing around. “I had thrown the bags on the bench seats, but all of the items were still in the bags. My clothes I had dropped outside of the head. They were piled up.” “Stay here,” Helen ordered, stepping over the items scattered all over the floor. Makayla watched the detective search the front section of the sailboat. She returned and shook her head. Makayla glanced around the area. “I found blood there,” she said, pointing to the spot near her clothes.Makayla turned left and walked to the end of the set of tables before stepping behind one and leaning against the rough bricks of the building. She was just on the edge of the window and could see the waitress talking to another worker behind the counter. A chilly breeze of damp mist blew past her and she shivered. She reached into her pocket and pulled out her cell phone to check the time. It was a little after ten o’clock. She slid her hand and the phone back into her pocket to keep it warm and glanced down the street in the direction she thought Brian would come from. Her body stiffened suddenly when she felt a hand wrap around the inside of her arm and something hard pressed against her side. She slowly turned her head until her gaze locked with pair of cold, dark brown eyes. She automatically tried to pull free, but couldn’t when his fingers tightened in warning. “I wouldn’t, Miss Summerlin,” the man remarked in a cool voice. Makayla frowned, anger building up and overriding her fear – anger at the man for hurting Henry – anger at his callous disregard for life – anger that he felt he had the right to harm another. It was misguided, but it was there and she grabbed the emotion with everything she had inside her because she knew if she let the fear take over, then she would be dead. “Where is my grandfather?” She hissed. “What do you want?” The man studied her mutinous face before his eyes narrowed. She lifted her chin, daring him to deny it. For a brief moment, the coldness changed to something else, something that she didn’t understand before it returned. “You,” he replied in a clipped tone before pressing his lips together in a tight, straight line as if he was surprised by his reply. “Great! A pervert on top of being a criminal,” she muttered under her breath with a shake of her head and looked away from him.Her softly muttered statement both amused Ren Lu and tantalized him. His fingers tightened on her arm and his eyes narrowed in annoyance at the unexpected reaction he had to the woman glaring back at him. This could create an expected problem if he wasn’t careful. Distracted by his thoughts, he didn’t see the car that suddenly swerved up onto the curb. His head turned toward the glare of headlights at the same time as pain exploded through his groin. He released his hold on Makayla’s arm when she jerked her elbow down and pushed against his chest. Ren Lu stumbled back into the shadows just as a man threw open the door to the car and jumped out. He slid further back into the alley when he saw the gun in the man’s hand. Twisting, he disappeared into the darkness.Makayla reacted instinctively when she saw the car coming. She used the distraction to turn into the man holding her and drove her knee into his groin. She hoped the move would put him on the ground, but it didn’t. It did give her the chance to pull away from him. Placing both hands on his chest, she pushed him away from her before turning toward Brian. She almost stopped when she saw Brian emerge from the car with a gun in his hand. Shocked, she forced her body into motion when he yelled at her to get in the car. A grunt of annoyance escaped her when she started for the wrong side of the car, forgetting in her moment of panic that the driver and passenger side were reversed to the States.
