       “J.D. was a bastard.

      “What he did was terrible,” Colleen said. “But he did it because he loved you.”

      “He betrayed me,” Sage insisted.

      “Can’t you say J.D. did you a favor, too?”

      “I’m not ready to thank him. But I can say that if he hadn’t stuck his nose in, I might not be standing here with a woman who turns my blood to fire with a look.”

      “Sage …”

      “I’ve been trying to stay away from you—”

      “I know,” she said. “Why?”

      “Because I want you too much. You’re in my blood, Colleen.”

      “You’re in mine, too.”

      They kissed, but just as the kiss was spiraling out of control, Sage pulled back. “Damned if we’re going to be together in an old cabin, then in an equipment shed. Today, we’re going to try an actual bed. Come with me.”
