State Police Sgt. Nick Houston is as tough as they come, and he and his K-9,
Saxon, are hot on the trail of a major illegal gun dealer. But his best lead—the beautiful owner of the Dog Park Café, Andi Hardt––is not cooperating. Doesn’t matter how sexy she is,
or that his dog seems to be in love with her. She’s a suspect and he won’t
cross that line. Ever.
Andi
Hardt sank everything into her dream business—the
Dog Park Café, a restaurant catering to
dogs as much as people. Now everything is in jeopardy because of one extremely
frustrating, incredibly hot state trooper. Like it or not, she’s in Nick’s
crosshairs, and he’s calling the shots. Her only option: cooperate, or lose
everything she’s worked so hard for.
Nick
and Andi are catapulted straight into the danger zone, forcing them to make
life-altering choices, and face their desires. Risking his life for Andi is the
easy part. Risking his heart is the toughest assignment Nick will face.
Now on to the excerpt!
She finished setting a table at the far end of the deck, then paused to
look into the dog run. Her profile was to him, and he could see a smile forming
on her lips, but it was short-lived. Slowly, she turned, searching the tables
she hadn’t gotten to yet, and he understood what she was looking for. Him. Dogs like Saxon were distinctive in
size and color. There was only one of him within at least a
several-hundred-mile radius, and wherever Saxon was, Nick was.
When she finally found him, her eyes narrowed to slits and her lips
compressed into a thin line. With the tray still in her hand, she took a deep
breath and headed straight to his table with long, determined strides.
So much for their little truce yesterday afternoon. She had to know
something was up.
“Good morning,” he said when she came to stand beside his outstretched
legs. From the irritated gleam in her eyes, he thought she might dump the tray
over his head.
She set down the tray and crossed her arms. “What are you doing here?”
A light breeze brought with it her scent, all flowery and pretty. No
matter how much he
wished otherwise,
he couldn’t deny it. Something about her torqued every one of his senses.
“Can’t a guy get some relaxation while he’s watching his dog play?” He
locked his hands behind his head and looked up at her.
“I have no doubt this is not
a social call. For you or your
partner.” She jerked her head to the dog run.
“And you accused me of being
overly suspicious?” He clucked his tongue. He was beginning to enjoy this. “Now who’s being suspicious?”
Her lips compressed into an even thinner line. “I’m not stupid, Sgt.
Houston.” She yanked out the chair next to his, then sat and leaned into his
personal space. With her blue eyes and sun-kissed complexion, she was just as
lovely as he remembered. “I know you want something. You said you don’t deal in
bullshit, so how about doing me the courtesy of getting to the real reason you’re here.”
“Fine.” He unlocked his hands from behind his head and leaned in until
their faces were only inches apart. Bad
idea. This close and his senses were more than going into overdrive—they were sparking
with ignition.
Her sweet scent was in his nose and lungs. Her warm breath fanned his
face like a gentle caress.
The job, he reminded
himself.
He hadn’t acted since college, but he could do it, and he wouldn’t
fail.
Showtime. Act I, Scene I, starring Nick Houston.
“Until Joe Myer shows up, I’m your new bartender.”
