People
keep dying around Harper MacLain. Try as she might, she can’t stop
bad things from happening to those she loves. When her closely
guarded secret lands her in the middle of her ex-boyfriend’s
investigation, she’s in over her head. She hates that Detective
Lucas Sullivan is in her life again, tempting her to fall back into
bad habits…and his bed.
When
Harper left him, Lucas tried not to care, burying himself in his job
instead. Then Harper became the job. Now they’re on the run, and
all he can think about is keeping her safe…and his hands off her.
Lucas knows she’s the key to solving his case, if he can keep them
alive long enough to do it. And that’s the trick…because falling
in love can kill you.

“Lucas,
they killed him. I don’t know what to do.”
“You’re
going to move on,” he said. “Put this behind you.” It was the
only thing that worked. The first time was the worst, because you
didn’t know if you could move past it. It never got easy, but the
first time was definitely the worst.
Without
another word, he squeezed peach shampoo on her head and lathered it
up. Before long, Harper was helping him, scrubbing with a frenzy, and
then she couldn’t take her clothes off quickly enough. The sopping
jeans were the hardest, and then she was ripping at her bloodstained
bra and panties, scrubbing Joe’s blood off her skin. He helped her
clean up, keeping his touch impersonal, and by the time he was done,
he was shaken by the effort to control his reaction.
Then
she was holding him, eyes closed, rubbing her wet body against his,
her lips open on his chest, her tongue tasting the water on his skin.
He told himself she was confused, traumatized. She needed care, not
passion. So Lucas struggled past the jolts of his thwarted desire and
forced himself to breathe. If he delayed stilling her hands as they
caressed his body, he told himself he didn’t want to upset her. If
he kept his arms around her, pressing her against him with more force
than necessity, he told himself the tub was slippery. When her
caresses and kisses brought him to the point of forgetting the danger
they were in, he stilled her hands with a gasp. She didn’t know
what she was doing, and he did. He stepped back, trying to do the
right thing, but unable to stop himself from drinking in the sight of
her; her delicate instep, long legs, slender hips, and the heaviness
of her breasts. He wanted to look at her all day and through the
night, but instead he turned the water off. It was hard to ignore
his arousal, her questioning gaze, but he did. Then he grabbed a
large, fluffy towel, and wrapped her in it before stepping out of the
tub.
“Everything
will be okay.” Lifting her out, he cradled her in his arms.
Harper
buried her face in his neck, and the sensation gave him tingles, to
the point where he had to take a moment to let them run their course.
It had always been that way with them. One touch, and he lost his
mind.
