She began to relax. Now that the initial shock of her capture was behind her, she needed to regain control of the situation.“And who exactly are you?” she demanded.A smile appeared on the handsome stranger’s face and he gave her an appreciative look. “You’re a tough cookie, aren’t you?” he said. Jackie shifted uneasily, as she felt his gaze caressing her skin. Her pulse accelerated. She could see the desire in those beautiful eyes, as blue as the waters of the Ionian Sea surrounding the island.
Oh, God! How easily I could get lost in those eyes.“Michael Apostolou,” he said suddenly, catching her off guard. “
Detective Michael Apostolou,” he added, putting emphasis on the word
detective.
Oh no! He was with the police. That was the worst thing that could happen to her right now. She had only been on the island for a few hours and here she was, caught by the police breaking and entering. How would she get out of this? Why hadn’t she waited until tomorrow morning to talk to the attorney, as Stephanos had instructed her? But no, she wanted to check out the documents in the safe, without anyone looking over her shoulder.
