• Now, here’s the thing I like about Morelli. There’s a lot of variety to his sexiness. He can be hot, he can be funny, he can be loving, he can be short on time and hungry. This morning, he was playful.

• “There will come a time,” Ranger said. “Let me know when.” And he disconnected. I opened the freezer and stuck my head in to cool off. If there’d been any more innuendo in that conversation, I could have fried an egg on my forehead. Ranger was a successful bounty hunter because he was exceptionally intuitive and doggedly aggressive. And that was also his description as a lover.

• Ranger was wearing a perfectly fitted black tux, black shirt, black-on-black striped silk tie. I’ve seen him in SWAT black fatigues, black T-shirt and jeans, black slacks and jacket, and I’ve seen him naked. He always looks great, but Ranger in a tux was a heart-stopper. Almost as good as Ranger naked. Almost, because nothing was better than Ranger naked.
