Last Chance Inn (#1) When 28 year old private investigator Jack Ryland walked into his cousin’s security agency that afternoon, the last thing he expected was to walk out as bodyguard to 23 year old Cheryl Adams.
It’s simple, his cousin says. There won’t be any trouble, his cousin says. Whoever’s after her can’t possibly track her where you’re going. It’ll be like a vacation, it’ll be fun, you’ll stay at a great lodge, it’s just one week out of your life. Did I mention I’m desperate with no one else to assign? It’s no big deal. All you have to do is keep an eye on the girl.
Nothing is ever that simple.
Jack accepts the assignment to help out his cousin and to get out of escorting his sister’s friend to a wedding, having no idea what he’s getting himself into.
It doesn’t take long for Jack to find out. The lodge is not a lodge at all, the seminar is not on gardening, skipping out on activities is a no-no, Cheryl doesn’t think the strong, chatty type makes much of a bodyguard, and Cheryl’s adversary is far more dangerous than Jack is led to believe.
Jack’s cousin was right about one thing. It’s fun. For him. For Cheryl… Jack determines to always sit on her left side to keep her from going for his gun.
In spite of Jack’s determination to avoid attachment and Cheryl’s ambivalence toward her knock-off bodyguard, she soon becomes more than an assignment to him.
Cheryl’s adversary is relentless, and determined to find her. Jack is even more determined to protect her at any cost, even with his life, and that just may be the price he has to pay.
Cottonwood Hotel (#2) After a rapid descent from the edge of a cliff, Jack Ryland needs a safe place to sleep off his injuries. Cottonwood Hotel fits the bill.
After many previous stays, Jack knows it’s quiet and has excellent room service. He places a reservation online, and with his beloved Charlotte at the wheel, they make the long drive across state lines for a week of recuperative rest.
Cottonwood Hotel is still quiet. Very quiet. It has excellent room service. It also has new management, and it doesn’t take Jack and Charlotte more than half a second to realize something isn’t quite right. In spite of it, after hours on the road, little sleep, and in need of food, they choose to set curiosity aside and keep their reservation.
All Jack needs is a week of complete rest, and they’ll be on their way again. He’s recovered from concussions before. He knows when to investigate, and when to set deducing aside. He can do this. After all, his intelligence is almost as important to him as his good looks.
For Charlotte, it’s not that simple. While Jack sleeps, she inadvertently stumbles into people and observations that send her curiosity into overdrive. In spite of it, she’s determined that nothing will interfere with Jack’s complete recovery and keeps her questions and growing concerns to herself. If she was dealing with an ordinary guy, perhaps that would work. Jack however, would have to be in a coma not to realize that whether she intends to or not, she’s becoming involved. It’s a relief to both of them when the day comes that Jack’s headaches are gone, and they can leave this mystery behind.
If only that day came a day earlier.
