ASHLEY LET GO of Petey's hand long enough to open the front door. "Ride orsey, ride orsey," he wailed, backing down the steps. Dillon grabbed him and lifted him up and over the threshold, pulling the door closed behind him.

"We can't ride the horse now, Petey," she said, picking him up and hugging him to her. She would have held him like that a lot longer, but he wiggled from her arms and headed for the den and the toys she had brought with them from Destin.

"We'll go see the horses in a few minutes," Dillon consoled him, following them into the den. He went straight for the bar as Petey did the toys.

"I've never had a drink in the morning before," he said, splashing two fingers of bourbon in a shot glass. "But this morning has lasted for days."

"I'm sure. You must be very upset about what happened to Marilyn."

He downed his drink in one gulp. "I'm upset about a lot of things. But I'm thankful Marilyn wasn't hurt seriously. We were damn lucky."

A chilly tremble snaked Ashley's spine. She remembered all too well the time when that hadn't been the case. "If that bullet had been on target this morning, you'd be dead," she said, her voice betraying the panic that still gripped her soul.

"Yeah." He raked his fingers through his hair and then stuffed his fists into his pockets. "Two close calls in two days. You one day, me the next. And that's without counting your fall the other night."

"Luck like that can't last forever," Ashley replied. "But I think you can forget about Potter Bingley. He's not even in the same league with the man causing this havoc."

Dillon's eyebrows went up, and his muscles tightened. "What's that supposed to mean?"

"It means it's time we come clean."

"My thoughts exactly."
