I remembered her from the bar. From that night last summer when I pulled her off the stool. I mean, I didn't know who she really was. I just thought she was your date, your girl or whatever, okay? I didn't know she was like...one of you." Keywords: Free Romantic Suspense, Free Mystery Romance, Romantic Suspense Series
