Welcome to the Den …
Six minutes is all he needs to get a job done …
Kyrnon “Celt” Murphy is one of the best thieves in the world. After all, his childhood was spent with a caravan of Irish Travelers that taught him everything he knows.
He got in …
He got out …
No witnesses …
When his latest assignment, one that even the best of thieves couldn’t pull off, brings him into contact with a girl that awakens a part of him he long thought dead, Kyrnon is reluctant to walk away.
But in his trade, witnesses meant consequences …
And sometimes those consequences meant death …
**NOTE** CELT is book #2 in the Den of Mercenaries series, BUT can be read as a STANDALONE.
Her apartment was only a few blocks down from Canal Station, but
in the time it had taken her to get ready, clouds had rolled in, obscuring the
once beautiful sky. Just as quickly as that thought formed, the first few
droplets of rain splattered her face, and before she knew it, the skies were
opening up.
She ran the last block, glad that she hadn’t gotten too wet in
her dash down the street, otherwise she would have looked like she was
competing in a wet T-shirt contest. Heading down into the station, she swiped
her metro card, walking through the cage-like turnstile. Her train was already
boarding, and as she hurried across the platform, she could hear the beeps, the
red lights flashing, signaling the doors were closing.
Before she even had a chance to curse her bad timing, a rather
large hand reached out, snagging one of her belt loops and tugged her in,
seconds before the doors closed at her back.
She stumbled as the train started to move, her Docs squeaking
with the movement. Reaching her hands out, she tried righting herself without
knocking the guy over that helped her, not that she could, she soon realized.
He seemed to be made of stone.
Prepared to thank him—or thank his chest since that was what was
directly in front of her face—the moment she tilted her head up to get a better
look at him, her breath caught.
Not just because he was attractive, he was definitely that, but
because he looked so familiar. It wasn’t because of Rob—Rob was very selective
about the circles he ran in. Those were the same circles she had tried so
desperately to fit in, but he would never associate with someone so … scruffy.
And this stranger was definitely that.
His eyes were a perfect blend of greens and yellows, flecks of
silver near the pupils, brightening them to an even lighter shade of green. How
eyes that pale could seem warm, she didn’t know, but they were. He also had a
full beard, one that was a deep auburn, a few shades lighter than his darker
hair.
Amber realized, almost belatedly, that she was still pressed
against him, her hands resting on the firm planes of his stomach, and even if
the train wasn’t so crowded, there was still enough space for her to stand on
her own.
But she kind of liked where she was.
Even with the shirt around her waist, she could still feel the
heat of his palm on the small of her back.
Dropping her hands, she moved back a little. “Thanks.”
His smile was easy, friendly, even as his eyes blatantly swept
over her. “No bother at all.”
She couldn’t withhold her smile even if she wanted to. His
accent was a dream to hear. It was lilting, and had an almost smoky quality to
it.
Irish. He was definitely Irish.
