Legacy of Lies
“He’d been panic-stricken when her call had come. All during the nerve-racking drive to the winery, thoughts of Alex lying in the roadway, broken and bleeding, had billowed in his mind like dark and deadly smoke from a sugarcane field fire.
Wanting, needing, to get to her as quickly as possible, he’d disregarded personal safety and all state speed statutes, racing into the mountains, planning to take her into his arms, to soothe her, to love her.
But then he’d found her sitting coyly atop that b...ar stool, sipping wine as if she were in some damn nightclub, flirting with that blond beachboy, who in turn looked as if he’d been struck by lightning, and every one of Zach’s good intentions had disintegrated.

And what he wanted, dammit, was Alex.MoreLess
