HARD TO FIGHT Excerpt
“I’m freaking out, Kady,” I whisper down the phone. “How the hell am I supposed to get
“With your mind,” she says with amusement in her voice. “And your body.”
“Don’t you see? You’re looking at this all wrong. You’re expecting to be able to just go
over and drag him in but you can’t do that. Whether you like it or not, you don’t have the
physical power to bring a man his size in. So start thinking outside the box.”
She’s piqued my interest. “Go on. . . .”
She huffs as if my question is completely unwarranted. “Seduce him.”
I laugh nervously. “Kady, I met him and basically abused him for being a player. Then I
told him girls like me never sleep with men like him, and now you’re asking me to approach him
and try to make him believe I’m interested?”
I close my eyes. “Yeah, that’s not going to happen.”
“What are you going to do, then?” she challenges. “Waltz up to him and order him to
come in? He’ll run before you get your damned gun from your purse.”
I laugh. “I know how to use my gun, thank you very much—I’m just not allowed to use it
“Seriously, Gracie,” she says, softer now. “Think about it. You seduce him, get him
interested, then you set him up. You could do something as simple as making him drop you to
She makes a really good point.
“He’s not just going to grow an attraction to me overnight.”
“What?” She giggles. “A man isn’t just going to fall at your feet? Gasp. But seriously,
that man was undressing you with his eyes. I don’t think you’ll have a problem.”
I snort. “Shut up—he was not.”
“He was so, and you can do it. I know you can. Just drop the charm on him, and you’ll
It’s actually not a bad idea. It would be an easy way of getting Raide in without alerting
him or having to wrestle him. I might be trained, but a man his size wouldn’t be easy to move.
Being a bounty hunter isn’t always easy. We have to track down criminals and bring them in for
their trials, things like that. It isn’t always a walk in the park, a good deal of them run or attempt
to assault us, so we’re always on our feet.
“I’ll think about it, but it is a good plan.”
I hear her clap and squeal. “While you’re at it, get some of that fine ass for yourself.”
“I think that’s against the code. . . .”
“Not if it’s kept secret.” She’s grinning—I can hear it in her voice.
I laugh, flopping down onto my couch. “You’re a rebel, Kady…”
…I hang up and lean back against the soft cushions of the couch. Seduce Raide Knox,
prove my team wrong, and get the chance to expand my career. It all sounds simple, but I have
no doubt whatsoever that it won’t be. Raide is a hard man, and he’s going to think I’m a great big
joke when I turn up, trying to seduce him. I can only hope he’s seducible.
Things are about to get interesting.
