Irreparable Harm (41 page)
But Connelly was in her kitchen. Boxes, jars, and bags littered her recycled glass countertops. Pots bubbled on her gleaming cooktop. Wine was breathing. Connelly was stirring something and singing along to music. Classic rock, from before she was born.
He looked up and smiled a lopsided smile.
“I thought you were on vacation,” Sasha said, her heart returning to normal as the adrenaline drained from her body.
“I am,” he told her.
That night, he slept in her bed for the second time. He did not curl up on the bottom like a dog.

COMING SOON
Inadvertent Disclosure
, the second book in the Sasha McCandless series will be available in December 2011.
In
Inadvertent Disclosure
, Sasha goes to rural Clear Brook County to argue a plain vanilla discovery motion. She’s not planning to stay long. Aside from the wealth of natural gas trapped in the Marcellus Shale beneath the town, there’s not much there. But when the county’s only judge appoints her to represent a cranky old man at his incapacitation hearing, she’s thrust into the middle of a bitter dispute over hydrofracking.
Then the judge is murdered. Sasha sticks around to bring the killer to justice. The only problem is, in a town hotly divided, she’s not sure who to trust and who to take down.
