Chapter Seven

She'd learned one thing about these two cowboys. They weren't what they seemed. Because they were dressed in all the grandeur of a guest aboard this riverboat, she'd underestimated them. They appeared as nothing more than empty-headed pretty boys, but she'd learned they were rough, tough, hard-talking, hard-riding Wild West cowboys who wore the badge of a bounty hunter.

Now, as she walked quietly between them, her nerves were staging a riot inside her skin. For the first time in her thieving career, she'd been caught in the act. She thought about the wanted poster they mentioned. She hadn't seen it and wondered if it actually existed, or was this just another one of their tricks. How could there possibly have been an etching drawn of her?

Oh, no! She thought. If there were etchings out there that she didn't know about, could there be tintype photographs, as well?

Suddenly, she heard the raucous laughter coming from the casino, the tinkling of glasses, the occasional shout of a winner, and a burst of applause. Now, climbing the short length of stairs, they came out on deck, and then pushed through the swinging doors of the casino.

Resisting an urge to spit on them instead, she pursed her lips and blew while looking into his steel-blue eyes. She could feel the same fire she felt every time their eyes met and knew he felt it, too. While continuing to hold her gaze captive, he gave a swift swing of his wrist, and the dice went flying across the table.

"We have a winner!" the dealer shouted while they continued to stare into each other's eyes. The guests around them roared out their congratulations and then gave him a round of applause, but his eyes never left hers. It made her wonder if he might let her go because of the way he felt about her.

The thought stayed with her, and with her hot breath blowing on his dice, he won every game. He finally reached the house limit and had to quit the table and go cash in his chips.

She stood at the cashier looking around for Val when she felt Clint punch a thousand dollar bill down in her cleavage, and say, "That's for the hot breath of Lady Luck."

"You don't really think my breath made your luck tonight, do you?"

"Maybe," he said as he led her to an
