“Maybe this is a prelude to learning, at last, who killed my father.”
“Maybe, but it would be a good thing if you stayed alive long enough to find out.”
“Yeah, there is that little angle, isn’t there?” Now she seemed to be calming a bit. Appearing more speculative—which worried Evan.
What if she put herself into more danger?
Damn, but this gorgeous—and foolish—woman exasperated him.
And that wasn’t all she did to him...
“Look, Amber. I don’t know what you’re thinking, but you need to be especially careful now. I don’t want anything to happen to you.”
She turned and looked him straight in the eye.
Not long ago, he’d have been highly uncomfortable with that.
Not now, though.
He started to reach over to pull her into his arms, but she beat him to it. They were suddenly both standing. Amber pressed herself against him—and raised her mouth to his.
Those of you who know my writing are aware I’m a dog lover. That’s one reason I’m delighted to be writing the K-9 Ranch Rescue stories for Harlequin Romantic Suspense. They take place in the fictional town of Chance, California, and involve dog training, suspense...and, of course, romance.
In Second Chance Soldier, the first in the series, Amber Belott has returned home to the K-9 ranch begun by her father, who was recently murdered. In his loving memory, and to help her mother, she’s determined to keep the ranch going despite her dad having never taught her to train dogs. She searches for the right head trainer—and is highly impressed by the demonstration provided by former military K-9 officer Evan Colluro. She hires the sexy and skilled trainer on the spot—without realizing he has a mild form of PTSD.
But Evan’s skills outweigh his past—and as Amber and Evan work together to bring more students to the ranch for pet and K-9 dog training, and to find the truth about what happened to Amber’s dad, their attraction becomes undeniable.
