Retired Cop. The new Widow. Are they both too stubborn to find a future together?Sarah is frustrated by family friend, Adam Crawford, who seems to feel that she is now his responsibility. He had been her husband's best friend, but she feels it was unfair of her husband from his deathbed to request that Adam look out for her. She's a grown woman! She can very well look out for herself. And if she wants to paint her house a garish new color, she will jolly well do it, no matter what he says. The trouble is... she is falling in love with the man, but can he love her for herself, and not out of a sense of duty?Meanwhile, team member Bob is in love with his neighbor Peggy, but he's been clumsy about letting her know it. Now she refuses to even see him! He's getting fed up, and wishes he could just storm her house and spank her senseless. Maybe after they got around to the kiss-and-make-up part, she'd realize the depth of his feelings for her. Then one afternoon he hears her scream! Will he get there in time to save her? While this is the final book in the series, The Team, it can be read as a stand alone.
