After a long day in the office finishing up reviewing everything in the WSI files, the team had a couple of leads they were going to follow up on the next day.

Bailey had accepted Marco’s offer of giving her a ride to and from the office. The hotel room was basically home now. She missed her own place, but the memories of her attack were still associated with it.

They’d received word from Lexi that she’d gotten the judge to grant Kappen bail, and he was now out of prison with certain restrictions in place. Bailey was more motivated than ever to solve this case. In her mind, Tobias Kappen was an innocent man set up to take the fall while the real culprits were still on the loose.

“Earth to Bailey,” Marco said, as they started the short drive to her hotel.

“Sorry. Just trying to wrap my head around everything. I feel like we’re on the edge of something big. And if we can exclude Kappen, then we have a killer or killers still on the loose. What if they decide to strike again?”

Marco glanced at her before turning his attention back to the road. “We’re doing all we can.”

Bailey hoped and prayed that was true. She looked at Marco, and her stomach clenched. There was no doubt in her mind she was starting to have feelings for him. The way he had been by her side since the attack had touched her. At first she thought he was just a flirtatious, overly confident federal agent, but now she had experienced a more sincere and caring side of him. The real Marco was a genuine guy with a huge heart. She’d told him they had to focus on the case, and that was true. But a piece of her just wanted him to kiss her good night and wrap his strong arms around her.

That was just wishful thinking. She’d tapped the brakes, and she was sure he wouldn’t push things.

“I can hear you thinking, Bailey. Is there another angle you think we should pursue?”

“I wasn’t actually thinking about the case,” she said softly.

“Oh.”

It was like he knew where her thoughts had gone.

He glanced over. “Is there anything else for us to say on that topic?”

Bailey stared out the window. “No. Things are still the same. I think that’s best. Don’t you?”

“If you’re worried that we’ll be distracted if we go down that road, then don’t you think we’re already distracted?” Marco laughed.

She couldn’t help but smile. “You have a point.”

They sat in silence for a moment. She was trying to determine if she should continue this conversation. Maybe they were crossing into dangerous territory.

Bailey was caught off guard by the bright headlights coming at them from the other direction. The large SUV sped up and started to cross the center line of the road.

“Marco!” Instinctively she braced for impact, fearing the worst—a head-on collision.

Marco quickly turned the wheel to avoid the oncoming SUV, but that action caused them to spin out of control.
