Reese had come to the conclusion that he'd be better off working with Jade than around her. He just hoped to hell she felt the same way. He reached for her, but came up empty as she took another step back. "Look, forget what I said," she told him. "You and I both know this isn't Hollywood. We're not talking danger and intrigue on the high seas here." It was time. He dragged her chair from the desk and hiked his boot up onto it. Reaching inside, he fished out the one piece of evidence that would change everything Jade thought she knew about him.
