Hart to Hart
“Vic placed a hand on Ellie’s elbow and turned her toward him. “Trent’s the best. He helped catch the guy who did this to me.” He placed his other hand on his burns.
Despite being relieved that Charlotte would be safer with Trent than if she’d remained with them, Ellie wasn’t ready to discuss her baby girl going off with a stranger. It didn’t matter if he was a cop. He was a good looking man, too.
Ellie glanced once more at the retreating car then stepped away from the window. Crying wouldn’t be... pretty, so she drew on whatever reserve she had left and sucked it in. “You should put your sling back on. The doctor said to keep it immobilized for a week.”

“Sure. But I’ll need help.”
“You’re playing the injured card now?” He had changed.
