       “Axel Clay, what are you doing here?”

      Tara didn’t sound welcoming and wished she didn’t care.

      “We need to talk.”

      “After four months of silence? I don’t think so.” Darn it. That didn’t sound indifferent, either.

      “Tara –”

      He’s just a guy, she told herself for about the millionth time since that night in Braden had turned into an entire weekend. More than forty-eight hours spent with each other in that little motel room, during which she’d started thinking things she’d had no business thinking. Crazy things. Forever things.

      All of which had come to a screeching halt when he’d been gone before she’d woken up the last morning. The only thing he’d left behind was a note that he’d “call.”

      Well, no call ever came. All they had in common was one weekend…and an unborn baby that she needed to keep secret…

      Allison Leigh started early by writing a Halloween play that her grade-school class performed. Since then, though her tastes have changed, her love for reading has not. And her writing appetite simply grows more voracious by the day.

      She has been a finalist for the RITA® Award and the Holt Medallion. However, the true highlights of her day as a writer are when she receives word from a reader that they laughed, cried or lost a night of sleep while reading one of her books.

      Born in Southern California, Allison has lived in several different cities in four different states. She has been, at one time or another, a cosmetologist, a computer programmer and a secretary. She has recently begun writing full-time after spending nearly a decade as an administrative assistant for a busy neighbourhood church, and currently makes her home in Arizona with her family. She loves to hear from her readers, who can write to her at PO Box 40772, Mesa, AZ 85274-0772, USA.

      For everyone who has loved The Double-C family as much as I have.

       Prologue

      “Can I get you another margarita?”

      Tara Browning looked up into the sympathetic eyes of the cocktail waitress as she moved the empty glasses from Tara’s table to the tray balanced on her palm.

      Wasn’t there a rule somewhere that drinking alone was a bad sign of something?

      Beyond the waitress, the wood and leather-studded Suds-Grill was just about standing-room only. Maybe that meant Tara wasn’t alone, even if she had been stood up by her own brother. She forced a smile. “Sure.”

      “Have it out in a few minutes.” The waitress disappeared among the bodies crowded into the small bar.

      Tara sighed and glanced over the people. Still no sign of Sloan.

      She couldn’t pretend she wasn’t disappointed. The message that her twin brother had left on her phone had been the first time she’d even heard his voice in three years. Five since she’d seen him in person and turned her life upside down because of the choices he’d made in his life.
