      Michael would keep Annie safe at all costs. He just hoped she wouldn’t shoot him for what he was about to do…

      Michael placed himself between Annie and the other police officers. “Annie is seeing me. She’s my fiancée.”

      Annie gasped and jabbed him in the back.

      “Really? When’s the wedding?” another officer asked.

      “Maybe the fall.” Michael turned Annie’s flushed face to his. “Maybe Christmastime.”

      Annie clenched her jaw. “If you think I’m going to stand here and—”

      Michael silenced her with a kiss.

      Though only intended to keep her quiet, his kiss became real when Annie’s initial struggle calmed. Her arms encircled and embraced him. Her lips were sweet and soft. Her supple curves molded to him, and the fire of her anger took on a passion of its own.

      Reluctantly, he broke away.

      “Guess that settles it,” the police chief said. “If you two aren’t engaged, you should be. Congratulations.”

      Annie’s blue eyes were dazed. Her full lips parted, but no words came out.
