Chapter 7

TEQUILA STOOD OVER the broken recliner, pressing a finger against her lips. She’d always prided herself on being a strong, independent woman that had too many things she wanted to do with her life and a man would just get in the way.

While she put her career on hold to take care of her dying sister and her nephew Grant, she didn’t see herself settling down to be with one man. Forever. Her job with the Omega Team certainly kept her hopping, sending her off to various parts of the world and she loved every second of it.

Even the bodyguard assignments.

It wasn’t as thrilling as being a test pilot, but the reward was equal, if not greater.

“I guess I owe you a new recliner.”

Ramey laughed as he tossed his keys on the table next to the door, before securing it. “No worries. Besides, I bet I can fix it.”

She rolled her suitcase to the side wall near the kitchen, a little unsure of how things were going to play out this evening. As much as she wanted to be in his bed, she found herself wanting to know the man. To understand what made him tick and not just the things he projected out into the world, but the things that he buried in the deep recesses of his mind.

Worse, she wanted to share hers.

“Do you want to get me the files on all the flights you and Roland took with kids from the hospital?”

“If you’ll start dinner. I’m famished.”

“You said you were cooking.” She planted her hands on her hips and glared at him.

“I said I was grilling, which I will do, but you get the vegetables.”

“The vegetables go on the grill, so you’re doing those too.”

“Then you get them ready.” He breezed by her, stopping to kiss her cheek. “But if I’m doing all the cooking, you’ve got dish duty.”

“I’m your guest.”

He groaned. “You’re going to make me be a gentleman, aren’t you?”

Her cheeks warmed as he kissed her lips softly before heading toward his bedroom. She let out a long sigh and rummaged through the fridge until she found some asparagus. Always good in foil with a little oil and seasoning and easy to grill.

“Here’s everything on Project Horizon.” Ramey dropped a thick accordion-style folder on the breakfast bar. “You know, we haven’t really talked too much about your interviews today.”

She closed her eyes briefly. She’d been dodging the subject.

“A few of your crew mentioned that over the course of the last month, you’ve been paranoid and not your usual self.”

Ramey tossed the steaks onto a butcher board and started pounding them. “I’ll give them cautious and with good reason.”

“Roland seemed to defend you the most, but even he said he was concerned for you.”

“So he’s told me.”

“Tell me about Tim Brooks.” She watched as Ramey beat the steak and then rub it with seasoning. For a player, the guy was incredible sweet, and not in the ‘pick-up’ kind of sweet, but the genuine-I’m-a-nice-guy kind of sweet.
