Two souls brought together where their
ancestors once met.
Jasira Graham in her last year of recruiting duty in South
Dakota, has no idea going out to the Reservation would alter
the course of her life. The sheriff who pulled her over was
a man unlike any she’d ever met before and no matter how
hard she tries, she can’t get him out of her mind. When he
shows up at her work and asks her out, she accepts and
learns that there are some things which are just meant to
be.
Stone Black Hawk is tired of dealing with military officers
who fly through his domain with little or no respect. So
when he sees a car swerving he pulls them over expecting
more of the same. He’s never been more wrong. It wasn’t a
commsioned officer and it most definitely wasn’t a man. He
wasn’t ready for the lifealtering moment when he first
touches her. Something about her strikes him deeply. Stone
pursues her and realizes that things aren’t always what they
seem. There is something going on between them that just
can’t be ignored.
Pursuit of a relationship leads them to passion neither can
deny. The fact she will be leaving is something which stands
in their way. Can Stone get her to realize sometimes to get
a person to accept where they have been and where they
belong they must come full circle?

Seconds later her head jerked around and he swore fire
snapped from them. “Excuse me?”
Stone realized he’d spoken aloud. Pushing up his shades with
one finger, he reached out his hand. “You do know why I
stopped you, right?”
She dropped the items in his hand. He glanced at her license
and frowned. North Carolina. Jasira Breeze Graham. Lovely
name.
“No, sir.”
Stone stole another glance at her through his sunglasses.
She looked scared. Petrified really, as if something had
rattled her to the bones.
“Have you been drinking, ma’am?”
Jasira Graham clenched her jaw. “No, sir. Not anything other
than coffee.”
Flicking his gaze to the hand curled in her lap, he was
relieved to not find a ring. Why, he wasn’t sure. “Am I
keeping you from something, Ms. Graham?”
“Yes, sir, actually you are.” She faced him again. “So are
you going to tell me why you stopped me?”
“Swerving all over the road. Figured you may just be
intoxicated.”
It was obvious she struggled for control. “I’m not drunk.”
Her chest rose enticingly as she took a deep breath. She
makes that look good. “Well, if you’re not drunk, then
you just must be a reckless driver.”
Jasira faced forward, set her jaw and said, “If you say so,
sir.”
The urge to needle her some more flooded him and Stone shook
his head. He couldn’t do that, not in uniform. So get out
of uniform. In fact. Let her get out of hers as well.
Turning around he went back to his car and ran her license.
Nothing popped up on her.
Back at his Jeep, Stone stared through the windshield at her
vehicle. She didn’t move—no fidgeting no nothing. With a
groan, he got back out and strolled to her window.
“Here you go,” he said, handing back her items.
“Thank you.”
“Now,” he said, wanting her to look at him again. “I know
there aren’t many cars out here, but you need to not be
swerving all over the road.”
“It’s not…” She took a deep breath. “You’re right. I
shouldn’t be.” Her head turned and big brown eyes stared at
him. “So what happens now?” The question was straight
forward and not whiny. |
