Night Smoke (2012)
“Assistant District Attorney Deborah O’Roarke Guthrie put fisted hands on her hips. “I want the whole story, Gage, before Natalie gets here.”

More than two years of marriage hadn’t diluted her response to him. Her mouth softened, parted, but then she remembered herself and stepped back.MoreLess
