Jansen.”
A spear of pain ripped at her chest. “No. You know they’ll kill you. It’s my responsibility to get him back.”
“No. I repay my debts. Jansen pulled you out of a burning building. Then sacrificed himself to save both of us. I’m not leaving him behind. He’s mine to save. Besides, you’ve been out of commission for three days. You need to get your strength back. Cassie and Seth are working on the plan. But we leave day after tomorrow.”
“You don’t even know him.” Had she really been out for three days?
“I know you”—he cleared his throat—“care about him.”
Symone squeezed his hand and pulled him toward her. Taking his face in her hands, she whispered, “I owe you something.”
He frowned. “You don’t owe me anything. I know how hard—”
“When a lady’s trying to tell you she loves you, it’s in your best interest to shut up.”
He smirked. “Shutting up now.”
“I didn’t know how to say it before. I’m not used to saying the words, but…” She sniffled.
“But you’re willing to put yourself at risk to bring my friend back. No one’s ever been willing to do anything like that for me. I love you so much. I don’t want to lose you.”
“And you won’t. I will move mountains to come back to you. And to bring your friend home.” He leaned in and pressed soft lips to hers. The kiss was undemanding, but immediately morphed, sending liquid heat to pool between her thighs.
“I don’t know what to say.” She inhaled sharply. “Except, we’ll bring him home—
together.”
“Symone, you need your rest. I—”
“Garrett, I’ve waited so long to find you. I’m not willing to be separated from you. You don’t know where Peter is, so you’ll be out there blindly searching. In another day, I’ll be strong enough to come with you. We do this together. Promise me.”
He searched her gaze. “I can make that promise.” He placed a soft kiss on her lips. “There’s nowhere else I would rather be than by your side. We’ll go together.” He kissed her again. “In the meantime, why don’t you show my how much you love me?”

“Game, Set, Match had me enjoying Izzie’s sass and Jason’s coming back for more attitudes. Ms. Malone’s depth to her characters, their actions, and their choices made them more lifelike and gratifying in this story.”

About Nana Malone
Nana’s love of all things romance and adventure started with a tattered romantic suspense she borrowed from her cousin on a sultry summer afternoon in Ghana at a precocious thirteen. She’s been in love with kick butt heroines ever since. With her overactive imagination, and channeling her inner Buffy, it was only a matter a time before she started creating her own characters.
Waiting for her chance at a job as a ninja assassin, Nana, meantime works out her drama, passion and sass with fictional characters every bit as sassy and kick butt as she thinks she is. Though, until that ninja job comes through, you’ll find her acting out scenes for hubby and puppy while catching up on her favorite reality television shows in sunny San Diego.
