An Impossible Mission

Logan Kane stared over the rim of his coffee mug and smiled at Molly Kimball McKay. She often came over to lunch at his restaurant, Kane’s Table, the business next door to her nature shop. He loved keeping her company while she devoured whatever he put in front of her.

She caught him staring and blushed. "I’m really pigging out, aren’t I?"

"Just eating for two." He nodded to her protruding belly. "How’s the little princess?"

"Kicking up a storm. Having dance parties at two a.m. Her daddy spoils her already."

"As he should. He’s got a lot to make up for."

Molly’s chestnut eyes twinkled at him. "You don’t fool me. You were the one who was responsible for getting us together."

Well, that was true. Molly and her now–husband Jase had been on an emotional merry–go–round and Logan had been the one to force Jase’s hand in claiming her. If the guy hadn’t, Logan would have married Molly himself—not that he loved her that way. He just had a thing about protecting pregnant women and babies.

When Molly finished and stood up, she arched her back and was silhouetted against the April sun coming in from the window behind her. At one time there had been another woman Logan had wished with all his heart to see pregnant and ungainly like Molly. And it would have been his kid she carried. But that woman was nothing like Molly. That woman was a lying, devious bitch who would never, after what she’d done, have his child.

"Logan, are you all right?"

He stood too to get out of the memory. "Sure."

"You looked sad."

He ruffled her hair. "You always tell me that."

"Because you always look sad. But today, just now, there’s a sort of a wistful sadness in those green eyes of yours."

Thankfully, his cell rang. Molly glanced at her watch. “Go ahead and get that.” Kissing him on the cheek, she headed for the door calling her thanks out to him.

"Kane here."

"Logan, it’s Simon."

Speak of the devil. It was through this man, Simon Kirby, that Logan had met Isabelle Sachetti. He’d never forget it. She’d come on to him right away.

I think we’re going to be really good together, Kane.

Hmm, I like the sound of that, Sachetti.

They had been good together—in bed, where they’d ended up the weekend after they met. And in the field, too, until she’d not only almost gotten Logan killed, but had also broken his heart in a way that he hadn’t ever recovered from in the full two years since leaving her in that hospital room in Barcelona.

"Hey buddy, how you doing?" Simon was also his close friend. Outside of Logan’s half-brothers and Molly, his best friend.

"Don’t ask. Nothing goes right here." A pause. "I need you, bro."

Damn it. "I helped out a few months ago. You said it would be a while before I heard from you again."

"It should have been. Phil Alderman was shot yesterday."

"What? Is he all right?"

"Yeah. He was in the wrong place, at the wrong time—a drive–by.
