  Caught!

  “Fabio!” the voice called. “Mama’s tootsies are cold. Not to mention other body parts.”

  The dog barreled around the shed, bouncing and barking, his red cloth horns flopping. The footsteps drew nearer. Chase braced himself. Damn, he didn’t want to do this. Involving a civilian meant trouble.

  “For Pete’s sake, come on. Let’s—” The brunette’s mouth fell open. Her pale blue eyes grew wide as quarters.

  Chase registered her features. Damp black hair dangled in ringlets just above her shoulders. His gaze lowered. While her height was average, nothing else about her fit that description. Breasts, body, curves. Her shirt was pulled taut, and he could read the words printed in large black letters across the front: Divorced, Desperate and Delicious. He didn’t know about the rest, but he recognized delicious when he saw it.
