Excerpt

He arrived in time to see Krista hanging off the side of the chimney.

Even from the distance he saw the look of relief in her eyes when she spotted him.

“Jack.” She waved an arm and a brick broke away. Panic flashed through Krista’s beautiful green eyes when her anchor gave way and sent her sliding down the roof’s steep slope.

In a flash of speed Jack was by the eaves, mentally dispersing the snow. He wasn’t worried about the fall; Krista could live through worse. It was the sharp iron picket surrounding the house that would kill her.

In seconds that seemed like hours, he watched Krista’s fall in slow motion. As her body cleared the house, Jack braced himself for her weight.

With a whoosh and oomph, Krista landed in his arms like she belonged there. Strong feminine arms went around his neck and she buried her face against his neck. Her warm breath heated his insides as well as his flesh.

As he moved to release her, Krista cried out. “NO! Please don’t let me go yet.”

He hushed her with a soothing tone. “No, I won’t let you go, but I need to get you inside to check for any damage.” A small nod was her only reply.

In an unconscious move, Jack leaned down and brushed his lips against the top of her head, her neck, and finally pressed his lips to the soft skin of her cheek.

“Oh, Jack.” Her breath wafted against his flesh. “I was so scared. But I knew you’d help. You caught me before I knew I was falling.”

There was something important in her words he should pay attention to. But relief mingled with adrenaline rushing through his system blocked everything but Krista and the feel of her in his arms.
