DEAD FLOWERS FOR A DEAD WOMAN.

The warning might have been downright scary if it didn’t make her so mad. She held the note up to the light. And what do you know, the Coltons’ watermark.

It wasn’t Linc. As aggressive as he’d become lately, he was too smitten to pull something like this. It wasn’t his style. She knew exactly who was behind this. It was just the kind of thing he’d do.

Duke.

But why?

Just what was he trying to pull? Was this his obscure way of saying that he thought she was childish, as childish as the block letters in the message? Or was he trying to get her to back off? But back off from what? From expressing a few feelings about the current state of affairs regarding his brother? She was only trying to be neighborly.

Just what the hell did Duke Colton think he was doing?

The more Susan thought about it, the angrier she became.

While she willingly acknowledged that she might not be the bravest soul God had ever created, she was definitely not about to be intimidated by rotting flowers and stupid, enigmatic notes that sounded more deranged than anything else.

It was damn well time to put a stop to this before she found herself knee-deep in dead roses and dried-up thorns.

Still clutching the flowers, she marched to the kitchen’s threshold.

Since this was between meals and there was no one else around, she told her father. “I’m going out, Dad.”

Donald Kelley had his back to her. He was still experimenting with the new sauce he was determined to create. Currently, he was on his sixth theme and variation of the new recipe, and he barely acknowledged that he’d heard her.

“That’s nice. Have fun,” Donald muttered. Reaching for the long yellow tablet he’d been making all his notations on, he crossed out an ingredient near the bottom of the list.

Susan doubted that her father had actually heard what she’d said.

But her father wasn’t a problem right now. Duke was. Duke Colton was insulting her with these childish notes and bouquets of dead roses. It had to be him. Who else could it be? She had every intention of putting a stop to this behavior—and give him a piece of her mind while she was at it.

The sooner the better, she thought, storming out to her car.
