The Lake House Secret, a Romantic Suspense Novel (A Jenessa Jones Mystery)
“As quickly as Michael’s arms surrounded her, they dropped to his sides, like he had done something wrong. She wondered if he had sensed her tense up in his arms and draw back.
“I think I’ve spilled my guts to you enough for one day,” she said, trying to cover for the awkward moment. “What about you? What do you see in your future?”
“Well…I didn’t want to say anything…” He playfully looked around for dramatic effect, pretending he was searching for someone who might overhear. “I don’t want to ji...nx it, but I’ve applied for the position of Detective. I got through the assessment, and the board review is coming up tomorrow. So, wish me luck.”
It was obvious the move up meant a lot to him. A gleeful smile swept over her face. “I wish you all the luck in the world.”
Jenessa was happy for him, hopeful he would get what he wanted. It sounded like he had experienced his own brand of heartache since they had been high school friends.
She didn’t want to take advantage of Michael, but she couldn’t help but wonder if having a police detective as a good friend might come in handy for her as a reporter.MoreLess
