Sunset Point: a Shelter Bay Novel
“Eleanor said as Mike drove her home.
“He doesn’t have a record, and the people Jake talked to in Shelter Bay only had positive things to say about him.”
“You had him investigated?”
“As soon as Jake ran his plates. I am an investigator,” he reminded her. “That’s what I do.”
When she folded her arms, he felt a chill come over the inside of the car. “Can I expect to have you look into my life?”
“Of course not. Unless,” he tacked on after a moment’s pause, “you started getting threatening calls or ...someone tried to hurt you. Then I’d be on the case like white on rice.”
“Because that’s what you do.”
“No. Because I like you.”
“You barely know me.”
“Cops have good instincts. And you have dynamite legs.”
He liked that she laughed. “I like you, too. And not because you have great guns.”
“You’re not talking about my service Glock.”
“No.” She reached out and curled her fingers around his upper arm. “I’m talking about the fact that you obviously keep in good shape.”MoreLess
