Run Wild, page 36
Max dropped his arms, taking his hands off the man and stepped back until he filled her doorway. He was still so unlike her usual teddy-bear cook. Maggie was grateful for him being there. She gave him a quick glance, hoping her look showed as much. There wasn’t time to express her gratitude right now, though. She shot her attention back to the man when he turned, faced her, tugged on his t-shirt to straighten it, and gave her an eyeful of richly defined curves and bulges.
Maggie swallowed even though her mouth was too dry and forced composure through her body. Shifting her attention from that virile body to his hand didn’t help much. She glanced at the laminated card he held out to her but couldn’t read it from that distance. Her legs didn’t wobble when she stepped forward and took it, then stared at the picture of the man standing in front of her, then his credentials. Her stomach did a small flip-flop.
“Micah Jones,” she read. “Bounty hunter.”
