1 " Denial and desire fought for dominance in his expression. Her lungs squeezed and forced a shallow breath.Right there. His lips were right there.The pupils of his eyes dilated before he breached that hair's breadth of air separating them. Their lips met and the chemistry exploded, racing through her body like wildfire. Need burned hot as his lips owned hers. "

2 " She was making it damn hard to back away. "You're a sister. There are rules against this kind of thing.""My brother isn't here to object.""Then I have to object on his behalf.""Do you really think he'd rather I ended up with someone like that deputy.""Or the doctor," he reminded her."Than one of his teammates?""In a heartbeat, sugar. I'm a bad bet. No one knew that better than your brother.""Yet he chose you to watch over me. "
3 " He wore my ex-boyfriend's cologne, and then tried to kill me." Talk about your bad first dates. "
4 " Delusional?" He cocked his head to the side like a predator eyeing prey. "Not yet." Another step closer with a slight smile tilting his lips.He didn't look crazy. He looked dangerous.She grabbed a steak knife and held it in front of her. It might be fun and games to him, but to her it was life or death. "
5 " He pulled a pink bedazzled phone from his hoodie pocket. "Call your friend. Let him know you're here.""This is your phone?""Lady on the bus," he answered.Her jaw dropped. "She sat two rows ahead of us.""We passed her on the way to the back row."He picked a pocket that fast? "What are you?""That's a damn good question. Now call your friend. "
6 " Was he safe? He was fierce and frightening and sexy in a badass way that triggered her horrific taste in men. There was no softness in his gaze or in his tone. He moved with precision and eerie quiet. He moved like a killer. "
7 " For some twisted reason, she found his bruises more attractive than a pretty face. With windblown red-blond hair, unshaven face, and cocky bearing, he had that James Dean Rebel Without a Cause look going for him. He exuded the same kind of innate strength her brother had had. It wasn't something the Army trained into a man. A man was born with it. "
8 " They walked into the library and a gust of heated air welcomed them inside. Safe. The idea was ridiculous given the bad guys chasing her, but nothing bad had ever happened to her in a library. "
9 " He was the kind of man who promised a rough, sweaty good time. The air around him snapped and hummed with sexual tension. Everything about him was out of her league. "
10 " Bracing a hand on either side of her face, he forced her to look at him. "I set the pace. I lead."She swallowed. "Is there any other way?""Not with me. "
11 " Sure, the ex-soldier was deadly. No one could dispute the shadow of death in his eyes, but he was also sexy I an unconventional way. Or maybe she was warped. From the first date to her last, she'd always chosen the wrong man. The charming doctor with the perfect smile did nothing for her. Not even the good-looking deputy. The soldier, however? Butterflies on steroids. "
