Flirty excerpt
When Gillian saw the police lights, she pulled over and turned off the engine but then smiled at the image in the rearview mirror, Chief Taylor’s strong, tall form in his uniform, no hat or sunglasses, walking toward her from his patrol car.
When he got to her door, she rolled down the window. “Is that a pistol in your holster, or are you just glad to see me?”
Resting his arms on the roof of her car, he leaned toward the window with a grin, meeting her eyes. “Ma’am.”
“Is there a problem, Officer?”
“Do you know how fast you were going?” he asked, playing along.
“How fast do you want me to be?”
He snickered and glanced over his shoulder at his patrol car before looking back at her. “Do you talk to all men like that? All this sexual innuendo?”
“I told you I’m out of practice. Maybe you just bring it out in me.”
“I’d like to believe that.”
“Well, this is out of one of my fantasies.”
“What is?”
“Being pulled over by a good-looking cop and getting frisked, then…doing whatever’s necessary to get myself out of a ticket.”
He swallowed then leaned through her window and spoke against her ear. “If it weren’t the middle of the day, and if there weren’t a dash-cam on that patrol car, I’d have you step out of your vehicle, assume the position, and spread your legs.” He stepped back as a heated flush overwhelmed her face.
