About TROUBLE

Read an Excerpt from TROUBLE

Drew stood in the kitchen doorway wearing a scowl and a very tiny blue towel slung low across his hips. Water droplets clung to his chest and Leah watched, unable to look away, as one drop made the downward trek across his hard abs to disappear behind the towel. It was enough to make her brain short out. "What in the hell was that?" Drew asked, stalking toward her. She swallowed past the sand pit in her mouth and—out of a sense of primal survival desperation—moved so the small, round kitchen table was between them. It wasn't that she was afraid of him. More like she was afraid of what she wanted to do when she was near him—every dirty thing she could possibly imagine. "I'm moving things ahead." He glanced down at the table and back up at her with a knowing smirk. "And how were you doing that?" Her cheeks burned. Damn it. Why was it always like this with him? Taking a deep breath, she clicked together her bad attitude, using it as a shield against his cocky charms. "I called in a favor to get more information about the Rhinestone Cowboys." He spread his legs wide and crossed his arms over his broad chest. "You don't need to know more." His stance couldn't have screamed "I strong man, you weak woman" any more if he tried. This wasn't how she worked. She wasn't about to entrust her life to some random FBI agents who were more concerned with catching the man in charge rather than keeping her safe. And Drew? She might be physically safe with him, but emotionally was a whole other story. "I'm not going to sit around Catfish Creek and wait for those two goons to make their move." "That's the stupid plan the Feds came up with and you agreed to." He shoved his hand through his wet hair, making it stand up as he rounded the table to her side. Her pulse picked up as he neared and desire warm and slick sent a shiver of anticipation through her body. She couldn't control her body's reaction to him and it pissed her off as much as it turned her on. He really was the one man she'd never been able to stop herself from wanting, which is exactly why she had to fight against it so hard. "I'm not going to sit back and wait for the other shoe to drop. That's not the way I roll." "No, you just roll over everything in your path without any thought about the consequences." "All the more reason why I can't wait for the Feds to do their job." Frustration over the situation and her body's reaction to the half naked man in front of her, she pushed past him, her only goal being to get out of the kitchen before she did something she'd regret, "I'm going to get ready. Until I know my next move I have to act like everything's normal. That means picking up my high school reunion welcome packet and saying hi to all the bitches who think I slept my way through the entire varsity football roster and the assholes who started that rumor in the first place." "If that's the way you feel about coming to the reunion then why are you even here?" he asked. She could pretend she'd come back to Catfish Creek to flip her classmates the bird but that was a lie, she realized in a rush. She'd come back to see him. "Why come back?" she asked. "To see if anything had changed."
