Chapter One

"H ey, baby, where are you?" Quinn Hamilton merged into traffic going south on interstate 405 toward Huntington Beach, California.

I’m still in Mexico, about an hour from the airport. God, I’ve missed you. It’s …

When Alandra’s voice faded, Quinn thought the call had dropped. Alandra? Hello? He fiddled with the steering wheel’s volume control in his Escalade truck. Hello? Lan?

Hey, I’m still here. The reception is awful. What I was saying is that it’s good to hear your voice. I’ve missed you.

Yeah, baby, me too. I can’t wait to see you. I have big plans for you tonight.

"Mmm, I love it when you talk dirty, Papi. Tengo planes grandes para ti tambien."

Quinn laughed. Girl, don’t play with me. Somehow, I doubt your plans for me are as big as my plans for you. I already don’t think I’ll be able to control myself. We have five weeks to make up for.

I know, and I’m going to make it worth your while.

Oh, yeah, now that’s what I’m talkin’ about. He had just arrived in L.A. after spending a month in the jungles of Belize on a mission, and he needed some relaxation. He drove a little faster, anxious to get to his vacation home overlooking the Pacific Ocean where he and Alandra would spend the next five days in seclusion.

I just hope I don’t miss my plane. Traffic is literally inching along, Alandra said.

Was there an accident or something?

I’m not sure. I’m still a ways back, but hold on. Let me step out and see if I can tell what’s going on. Seconds later Quinn heard her say, Oh crap.

What?

There’s a road block or checkpoint ahead. They’re stopping people, and it looks like cars are being searched. No wonder traffic is backed up.
