Leslie Kelly - Bare Essentials - Naughty, But Nice

“Ready?” he asked.

Ready. Maybe that explained the odd tremble in her limbs at the sight of him. “Has hell frozen over?”

His jaw tightened. “You want to be nice to me today, Cassie. I’m in a mood.”

“Oh, fine, you’re in a mood. Well, just take it on down the road.”

“Get in.”

“What’s the matter? Am I disturbing the peace?”

“Yeah. Mine.”

“Kate is going to meet me.”

“The arrangements have been changed.”

She was going to kill Kate at the first opportunity. “I’d rather walk.”

“It’s thirty miles and it’s going to be dark in five minutes.” He sighed. “Let’s go.”

She would never in a million years be able to explain to anyone, much less herself, why she stood up and got in the squad car.

Without glancing at her again, he put the car in drive and took off. Cassie looked around her with morbid curiosity. “I’ve never been in one of these before.”

“Uh-huh.”

She hadn’t, but at his sarcastic “Uh-huh” she folded her arms and stared straight ahead. Why had she said that? Why had she just opened her mouth and let something personal like that fly out? She never did that, and she never would again, or she’d cut out her own tongue.
