Chapter 14

The windshield hadn’t broken. Only one small hole pierced it, but from that one hole, a spiderweb of cracks spread out. Heath couldn’t see through it. He had no damn idea what was on the road ahead of them.

But for a gunman.

More shots rang out, the gunfire sounding like claps of thunder. That first bullet, that had struck the windshield, hadn’t been fired in error. It wasn’t like some hunter with lousy aim had struck them instead.

No. It seemed more like open season on them. Someone was definitely trying to kill them. And coming too damn close this time.

“Get down!” he shouted again at Kylie.

That first hole had pierced the windshield more on her side than his. But it couldn’t have hit her. Could it?

He glanced over the console at her, but she was leaning over, her head near the dash. He couldn’t see her face, couldn’t see if she was conscious.

Had she been hit?

Panic pressed hard on his chest, stealing his breath away. “Kylie?” he called out to her, fear for her filling him. That hole was so close to where her head had been.

Needing to make certain she was okay, he took one hand from the wheel and reached for her, but as he did, another bullet struck the SUV. One of the tires blew, the rubber squealing against the asphalt of the street. The steering wheel shuddered within his one-handed grasp as the SUV started spinning out of his control.

He pulled his other hand back to the wheel, gripping it tightly, grappling to bring the vehicle back under control. Where the hell could he go? How could he get out of the line of fire?

Yet another bullet struck, scraping across the metal of the roof. Then another tire was struck, and the vehicle started to careen across the street.

He lost all control of the SUV...as the firing of those gunshots continued. There was no way to avoid them now, no way to avoid getting hit.
