Page 87 of The Hero She Loves

Well, she always got her man. She was going to make him realize that he deserved her and more.

Two black sedans sped down the street and screeched to a stop nearby. The doors opened, and when she saw the first man who stepped out, she stifled a groan.

Owen appeared beside her. “Incoming.”

Typical Vic. Arriving when the hard work was all done, hoping to steal the glory.

Jenna didn’t care. Olson was in custody, and she and Park were alive. That’s all that mattered to her. That, and the fact that she’d finally discovered what true love felt like.

It wasn’t all sweetness and warmth. It was intense, raw, and real.

“Thank you, everyone,” Vic called out. “Your hard work in the apprehension of Kyle Olson has been invaluable.”

Owen made a snorting sound.

The paramedic treating Park looked up. “Who’s the blowhard?”

Now Jenna snorted. What had she ever seen in the man?

Vic spotted her and headed her way. He rested his hands on her shoulders. “Jenna, your face…”

She pulled back. “I’ll live. You have good timing, Vic, as usual.”

“You captured Olson. Well done, Jenna. I never doubted that you could take him down.”

“I had help.”

Vic took her hand and pulled her to the side. She really didn’t want him touching her.

“I’m really impressed. You’re a hell of a marshal.”

“I know,” she said dryly.

Vic’s face suddenly changed. He touched her hair, a soft look in his eyes. “I miss you.”

What?Her eyebrows winged up.

“I made a mistake with us, Jenna. With Mia. Things are not…” He shook his head. “I see now what a great team we were.”

“A great team? Vic, you’re married.”

“I’m getting a divorce.”

Jenna shook her head.

“Together, we could go places.”

She made a sound. “So, I do all the dirty work, while you sit in your corner office, lapping up the credit?”

He frowned. “Jenna?—”

“Look, Vic, I?—”

She saw Vic look over her shoulder and his chest puffed up. She knew exactly who was behind her. She could sense Park blindfolded.

“Vic, this is Parker Conroy. He helped me catch Olson.”

“The Army grunt.” Vic crossed his arms. “Shame that you and your secret teams let someone like Olson loose.”
