Chapter 3

“Have a real drink,why doncha?”Tanner slurred.

“Nah.Three’s my limit.”Sandy reached across the table.“In fact,hand over your keys.”

“I just wanna relax.Give me a break.”

“No,you give me the keys.You’re not driving.”

“You talk like a cop.”

“I am a cop.”

“Really?I thought you quit.”Tanner waved a beefy hand.“You know,the fire.Your arm.”

“I’m still a sworn officer.Each park has at least one to makearrests.”

Tanner leaned back,sculpted arms against the seat back,deep chest stretching the T-shirt he wore.“You gonna arrest me?”

Sandy grinned.“Only if you want me to.I’ve still got handcuffs.”

“Yum.”Tanner’s crooked incisor flashed.“Let’s get outtahere.”

“Shut up.”

Sandy reached down to tug at the fuzz under Tanner’s arms.“You shut up.”
