Excerpt
"You should put me down," she told him, even as she cuddled into his chest. "I'm too heavy. You don't want to strain your back."
In the distance the rattle, rattle, rattle of steel wheels over cement announced the arrival of the emergency room crew.
His arms tightened, and he forced a little chuckle. "The day my back gives out because of carrying a pretty woman is the day I'll give up my badge and retire."
"Pretty?" Her laugh was breathless and pained, but still wry. "Oh yeah, blood and bullet holes are so attractive."
No, but petite, black-haired women with big, brown eyes, sure as hell were.
The rattle of the gurney came closer. "Hang in there, baby. They'll have you fixed up in no time."
"Did you just call me, baby?"
Suddenly she grimaced, apparently misreading the shock on his face at the inadvertent slip.
"Sorry. I must be hallucinating." She offered him a wobbly smile. "I hear blood loss can do that to a person."
