Chapter 4

Logan Stone stood beside Ginger McGinty, prepared to lie.

Cherish. Honor. Protect.

He could do those things.

It was the love and not hurt her part that was going to be tricky.

He’d stood like this once before, uttering those very words. Making promises. He’d thought he could keep them the first time, a total no-brainer. This time he hoped he could keep at least half of them without turning into his wife’s worst enemy. He needed to do his best to let her keep living the fantasy of a guy trying to do the right thing for Annabelle.

And he’d have to keep their contact short. He hadn’t been able to hold on to Kristy, because she’d seen the real him. If Ginger ever did, she’d definitely leave, unbelievably hurt. And he knew she had the potential to, because she already saw parts of him that nobody else had noticed. But if she ever saw Logan the dangerous spy she could blow everything, including her own heart.

But that was merely collateral, he reminded himself. He had to be ruthless. He had a new visa application to make, a yacht to bug, a bad guy to catch.

Keep the woman safe, then disappear.

Except she knew where Annabelle lived.

Everywhere he looked…problems.

The ocean breeze blew Ginger’s loose curls around her shoulders and she was smiling softly as she repeated her set of vows. He had rarely seen her face without a smile on it. She deserved a happily ever after. She was happy, warm, kind and wonderful. Trusting.

What could be so broken in her life that she thought marrying him was a good deal?

He brushed her cheek with his fingertips, overcome by a feeling of protectiveness. He wished he could be everything she deserved. Wished somehow…

He was acting sentimental. It was the vows, the flowers, the whole “until death do you part” business.

He wasn’t that man. He was a ruthless spy on a mission. The marriage he was entering into was as fake as his undercover name, Logan Stone.

Their marriage would be null and void before they even said “I do.” It would never be fraud because it wasn’t a real marriage. Yes, the new visa would go through, because his paperwork was that good. But there was no real Logan Stone even though everyone from Annabelle to nosy Lucille knew him as such. Ginger’s new husband would never be more than a ghost.

Ginger was steady, watching him quietly, her hands in his now.

They shared their I do’s and Logan blinked back the unnecessary emotion. She was a good citizen unknowingly helping him catch a bad guy.

But man, she could kiss like a fiend, make him forget everything he was trained to do. He was already jealous of the guy who would come along after him. He hoped he deserved her. Hoped he was everything Logan tried to be: kind, caring, thoughtful.

They were pronounced husband and wife and she gave a half smile of disbelief. “That was easy,” she said.

Crime committed. Just like that. Well, an almost-crime, seeing as she’d only married his cover.
