SECRETS OF THE MOUNTAIN
It took just one look in Quinn Donovan’s eyes and Wilhelma “Billie” Bronson knew the search and rescue volunteer had saved her life. Again. But this time her fall down a mountain was no accident. It seemed her past had come back to haunt her, and trusting Quinn to protect her was the best way to stay alive. Before long, though, old feelings resurfaced, and being around him became more challenging than figuring out who wanted to hurt her. And why they’d stop at nothing to spoil any possible future with Quinn.

“I want answers,” Billie said.
“Like who is still after me,” she continued. “Who tried to run us down, and most importantly, why won’t you look at me?”
“They have a video image of the driver from the hospital and are sending it to local police departments for identification,” Quinn said. “That should help them narrow down the suspect list.”
“And you won’t look at me because…?”
“You’re imagining things.”
“Look me in the eye and say that.”
He snapped his attention to her, his blue eyes aflame with anger. “Let’s see, the fact I shouldn’t have let you leave this room for the SAR mission and I shouldn’t have left your side at the hospital because the thought of…” He shook his head.
“What?” She squeezed his upper arm.
“The thought of you being hit by a car because I wasn’t there is tearing me apart.”
“What would you have done? Would you have stopped the car with your bare hands?”
He gently gripped her shoulders and looked deep into her eyes. “I could have protected you.”
