Present Tense (A Parker & Coe, Love And Bullets Thriller Book 2) - Plot & Excerpts
I had been dating Ethan when the thing was new. He pried open the lid, connected to a secure wireless server, and logged onto a database for WILKINSON BAIL BONDS. He said, "You know me better than I thought you did, Parker. I don't make a deal unless I've got every scrap of information I can find about the people I'm in business with—and the people they're in business with, too. I consider it a matter of survival." I couldn't speak for Parker, but I didn't really give a damn why he did what he did. Once again, I just wanted him to get on with it. In my mind's eye, I saw Ethan strapped to a chair in some dark room, as Scaffe and his friends took turns beating him. I wasn't sure why I was so concerned—he had, after all, lied and manipulated and conned me from the very beginning—but, despite my occasional violent outbursts, my transformation from clueless college girl to cold-hearted bitch was far from complete. And as much as Ethan Rider now disgusted me, I certainly didn't want to see him dead.
