MONDAY MORNING, she hurried into Lifeline, anxious to see Jared before he was swamped with other problems or was called out on a pediatric flight.

When she burst into his office, though, she found him already deep in conversation with Reese. Her stomach clenched painfully. She didn’t doubt Reese was filling Jared in on what a huge security risk she’d become.

“Samantha.” Reese quickly stood. “We were just talking about you.”

“Really? I wouldn’t have guessed.” Her sarcasm made him wince. “But if you don’t mind, I’d rather discuss my personal problems with Jared—alone.”

“Samantha, sit down. Please.” Jared’s voice held enough authority to make her drop into the chair next to Reese. ”Reese was filling me in on your ex-husband, and I must say I agree. Increasing security around here is the first order of business. Then we’ll—”

“You don’t need to do anything, Jared,” Samantha interrupted. “Except find someone to replace me. I’m formally requesting a reassignment.”

“Request denied.” Jared didn’t even blink. “There’s a private investigator I know, a guy by the name of Brandon Rafter. I think he can help us find your ex.”

What was he talking about? “You can’t deny my request.”

“Sure, I can.” Jared smiled. “We’ve spent weeks training you. I can’t replace you on a whim. Spring is coming, and when the weather warms, the trauma calls will double, if not triple. Besides, you’re safer here where we already have specialized security than in another rotation.”

“A whim?” her voice sharpened. “A transfer is best for everyone’s safety.”

“And it’s better for you to stay.” Jared’s tone brooked no argument.

“Do you have a recent picture of Markowitz?” Reese wanted to know. “I think Brandon will need a photo to use during his investigation.”

Sam reached up to rub her aching temples. They weren’t listening to her. “I don’t have a picture. I didn’t keep anything of our marriage.” She looked up at Jared. “Please think about this. I can stay long enough for you to train my replacement, then I’ll leave.”

“Last night you refused to run,” Reese pointed out quietly. “Why don’t you give Rafter a chance? He can do exactly what the police can’t, follow Markowitz and catch him in the act. Once he’s been arrested, you’ll be safe.”

Samantha could hardly imagine her life without Dennis the Menace looming in the background. The lure of possibly catching Dennis in the act was one she couldn’t resist. Heaven knew, she wanted her life back.

But if anything happened to the Lifeline crew, especially to Reese, she wasn’t sure she could live with yourself.
