Logan

Logan glanced over at Angelina. Sound asleep, snoring ever so quietly as her head lolled to one side. She looked adorable, dressed in his oversized clothing and covered in dirt smudges. No woman had ever affected him the way Angelina had in such a short time. As he drove like a mad man to his aunt's hideaway in the mountains, his mind kept returning to the feel of her lips. Every curve of her body seemed made just for his, and if they ever got another moment alone, he intended to test that theory.

What was wrong with him? The woman was in a heap of trouble and all he could think about was kissing her? Well, that wasn't entirely true. He was also thinking about exploring her soft curves—every single inch of them.

Aunt Clara used to say there was a time and a place for everything. This was definitely not the time or the place to be giving into lustful desires.

Except he had never really felt anything quite like what he felt for the mysterious woman sleeping on the passenger seat. She had told him the story of the Ricci family only because she had to but it made him want to know more. He wanted to know everything about her.

Angelina was in the crosshairs of a ruthless, mob assassin. What worried him more though was how the ruthless mob assassin had even known she was alive, let alone found her location. According to what she had shared, only one person knew where to find her, and Logan was fairly certain that Witness Protection agent was keeping tabs on her and selling her out. He had no proof, just a feeling deep in his gut, but he'd learned to trust those feelings over the years. He had been on his own for a long time with no one but himself to watch his back. Paying attention to those little bits of intuition had saved his hide on more than one occasion.

They had gone over twenty miles without another car in sight. Aunt Clara's mountain bunker was only about another thirty minutes away. If he could just get Angelina there, he could secure her and then find a way to stop the crazed maniac that wanted her dead.

Pulling out his cell phone, he was about to switch it on and call the L.T. when he thought better of it. What if that witsec dude had somehow managed to trace them with it? He couldn't risk anyone finding them again. Aunt Clara probably had some burn phones—prepaid cellular devices with no tracking capability—at the bunker. He'd wait until he was there and then check in with his boss. Maybe the L.T. could do a background check on the fed, see if he was on the up and up, or if Angelina's good ol' boy agent was on the take.

A short time later, Logan whipped the wheel to the left so quickly the Jeep practically went up on two wheels. He let out a quiet chuckle as he glanced over at Angelina.
