He’d told me we were going to visit my sister and while I was confused about why we were going at such a late hour; I was looking forward to seeing her. When I returned home, I’d have to tell Leilani how the plan blew up in my face. That’s if Heath didn’t tell her first.

Merciless Marchetti worried his lower lip as he stared out the tinted window of the SUV, biting and pinching it until it turned red. He was still dressed in a deep blue suit sans the ties, the top buttons of his shirt undone and exposing his smooth lean neck.
