Excerpt From SNOWBOUND: The Protectors Series — Book
Two by USA Today Bestselling Author Karen Fenech
What was that? Gage Broderick turned away from the frozen dinner he was nuking. Sounded
like a knock at the door. Impossible. It was a blizzard outside, and he was in
the middle of nowhere.
But the sound nagged. Ignoring the beep from the
microwave signaling that his meal was done, he made his way across the
rough-hewn plank floor of the cabin to the equally rough door and opened it.
A woman fell into his arms. Gage caught her against
him as a cold gust of wind blew inside. Snow swirled in the air, the crystal
flakes dancing then landing on the wood floor and instantly becoming puddles of
water.
The woman was unconscious, wet, and so cold, goose
bumps rose on Gage’s own flesh from merely touching her.
The last thing he wanted was company. He felt a
surge of anger at the intrusion. He had an instant—a flash—of just leaving her
where he’d found her. He went still. He closed his eyes. It was a near thing but
he wasn’t that far gone. He hadn’t completely lost his humanity. Yet.
He lifted the unconscious woman into his arms and
carried her inside, kicking the door shut behind him. With the door closed, the
wind was gone. More than the absence of cold, the cabin was again quiet other
than the sound of the clock on the mantel ticking and the groans and squeaks of
the old wood as he made his way into the living room.
He placed the woman on the leather couch and
checked her pulse. Slow but steady. There was blood along her hair line. He
parted her thick, brown hair gently and found a long gash at one temple that
looked raw, enough to hurt but not severe enough to be life threatening. He
probed further, but found no other cuts. He thumbed open her eye lids. Pupils
were normal. Not concussed, then. He’d clean the head wound, but that was no
longer his first concern.
Her hair was tucked in the collar of her T-shirt.
Oddly, she wore no coat. Her face had little more color than the white shirt.
He had to get her warm.
The snow on her skin was melting and droplets of
water glistened on her face and in her hair. He got a towel from the linen
cupboard and gently dried her skin, then moved on, drying her hair as best he
could with the cloth.
Tossing the towel aside, he made short work of one
boot, dropping it onto the floor, but as he tried to remove the other, it held.
He ran his fingers gently over her lower leg and felt swelling in her ankle.
Broken? He needed to free her leg. He estimated that the woman had been inside
with him for about three minutes. She hadn’t stirred in that time. Better that
she hadn’t. The way her boot had molded to her ankle, when he forced it, it was
going to hurt.
With her boots off, he saw that her white socks
were soaked through. He peeled them off carefully. Her right ankle was swollen,
all right. Swollen but not broken, he judged and on its way to getting one hell
of a bruise. He figured she’d had enough ice on that foot, thanks to the snow.
Nothing he could do for it.
Her jeans were wet. Her T-shirt soaked through. No
help for it, he was going to have to remove them. By the time he’d taken off
the garments, he’d broken into a sweat. Not the result of shifting her slight
body weight the few times needed to remove the clothing, but from what had been
revealed to him. A tight, sexy body now clad only in a lacy bra thing and
matching bikini panties.
Gage rubbed a hand, that was no longer steady, down
his face. Her underwear was also too wet to leave on and would have to go as
well . . .
