Small-Town Rumors
Katie slipped on her leather jacket and took small, quiet steps toward the front door. Hopefully she could sneak out before Zoe—
“Where are you going so early?” Zoe asked from the kitchen, spatula in hand.
With a sigh, Katie said, “Out.”
“First, you don’t leave your room for a full day, and now you’re sneaking out early? If I had to guess, I’d say you are avoiding something. Or someone.” Zoe shot her a knowing look.

Borrowing Amor Confessions
Sam stared at the document sitting in front of him. The words swam on the page, mocking him. If he’d thought getting work done before Saturday night had been difficult, it had now become impossible. Ever since that kiss that had sent him higher than the moon, and then brought back lower and harder than he’d ever fallen before. How could he have allowed this to happen?And because Sam hadn’t seen Katie since that night, his imagination had been allowed to roam free. He’d dreamed of her, imagined kissing her again, remembered how hungry, yet soft, her lips had been. If he could just see her again, he’d realize that fantasy was always better than reality. He’d realize that the real Katie couldn’t possibly live up to his expectations, and then Sam would be able to move on and refocus on the job at hand.

Sam sauntered up Zoe’s walkway, hands in his pockets and whistling a familiar tune, though he couldn’t remember where he’d heard it. Before he had the chance to knock, the door flew open. Katie stood in the doorway, looking amazing, as usual. Though something looked different.“You’re not wearing your leather jacket,” Sam said. Instead she wore a dark green cardigan that made her emerald eyes seem brighter than ever.“I thought I’d try something new,” she said. “Do you like it?” Katie seemed like she genuinely didn’t know how incredible she looked.“It suits you,” Sam said. He glanced behind her to see if Zoe was nearby, spying.

Katie stood on the seat of the car, watching the sun set, until the road became too bumpy and she was thrown into the side of the sun roof. “Ow,” she said, dropping back into her seat.“You okay?” Sam asked, then pointedly tugged his seatbelt.“Yeah, yeah. I know. Safety first.” Katie put her seatbelt on, but still craned to see the brilliant hues that stretched across the sky. “I just can’t get over it. This place is so amazing.”“I’ve lived here my whole life, and I’m still not used to it,” Sam said. “I hope I never am.”“Where did you say we’re goi
Borrowing Amor It's Complicated
Sam rounded the corner to Zoe’s office, but had to do a double take when he saw that it was Katie, and not Zoe, sitting at the desk. “You’re back to working in the office?”Katie gave him a shy smile. “I have a confession. When I decided to work from home…I was avoiding you.”Sam pumped a fist in the air. “I knew it!” He grinned. “So, I’ve made it off your blacklist?”“Blacklist?”“Yeah, you know, everyone who is on your bad side, and if a hitman took them out, it wouldn’t be the end of the world.”
Borrowing Amor A Grave Interruption
“How did it go?” Bev asked, handing Katie a sugar cookie. They sat on a couple of tree stumps outside Bev’s tent. “Mayor Freedman dropped these off this morning, so I’m guessing it didn’t go too badly.”“It didn’t go well either,” Katie said, taking a bite. “I didn’t tell him.”“I thought so.” Bev shook her head. “You can’t go on pretending, you know. A life that you want to last can’t be built on lies, and you have built up plenty of them since you got here.”“I haven’t lied about anything except my name,” Katie protested.

Katie had kept her fear and anger under control while in the middle of the festival, but now that they were out on the darkened street, this was her chance. She had seen the way Sam looked at her. Like she was a stranger. Just moments before he had been talking about how she’d changed the world for the better—his world. And now? Well, he wasn’t going to be any help. Katie was just another problem he had to deal with. But one thing was for sure. She wasn’t going to go with Teddy quietly.No one had thought to keep a hand on her, Sam walking in front of her and Teddy behind. They really didn’t know she’d try to run?

“I need an update,” Sam said into his phone. “We still don’t see them.” He listened, nodding. “Great. Thank you, Detective. Keep us posted.” He hung up and turned to Daniel in the passenger seat. “New Mexico State troopers have set up a roadblock about thirty miles north.”Daniel gave a grim smile. “What if they didn’t go north?”“We have a witness who saw a patrol car heading in that direction. Besides, border patrol is to the south and Bev said she and Melinda haven’t seen any patrol cars on the east route.”“Did the witness see if the car was from Colorado?”

Katie woke to the sound of a squeal from downstairs.“Wake up! Christmas is finally here and you won’t believe what’s outside,” Zoe yelled.The sound of Zoe’s feet pounding on the stairs made Katie burrow under her blankets in a vain attempt to hide. If she could just have a few more minutes—The blankets whipped off her. “I’m glad I don’t sleep naked,” Katie said, curling into a shivering ball. “That could have been embarrassing.”“Please,” Zoe said, waving her off. “I knew you wouldn’t be. You’re not the type.”
