Her mouth dropped open slightly and she stared at me in disbelief. I refused to let my eyes drift to those lips and instead, I stood. “Come on, let’s get back out there.”

When we returned to the living room after grabbing tweezers from my bathroom and a Ziploc bag from the kitchen, Randy asked, “Is everything okay?”

I nodded as Mallory took a seat again. “I was asking Liam what if I didn’t come from the west? What if I was on his ranch longer than we think? It’s a huge ranch.”

“I’m considering that. I made a circle around the ranch. I’ll pull property owners when I can and share them with you. Mallory, I don’t think you’re from around here. Grass Range is tiny, and even though I don’t know everyone in Lewistown, I’m pretty sure I’d remember someone as…um… well…as pretty as you.”

Mallory’s cheeks blushed and she looked down at her feet.

“You think she lives in Montana?” I asked, ignoring the instant jealousy I felt.

Randy nodded. “I do. Or within driving range. A day’s ride from here would be my guess.”

Mallory chewed on her lip before she said, “It doesn’t feel like I’m from Montana. The mountains are so beautiful, and every time I look at them, it’s like I’ve never seen them before.”

Randy stood, and I handed him the baggie and the tweezers. “Well, let’s hope we get a hit on your DNA or fingerprints.”

He pulled a few strands of Mallory’s hair, and when he zipped up the bag, she giggled.

“What’s so funny?” I asked.

She covered her mouth with her hand and laughed again before she said, “I hope I’m not a convicted criminal.”

Randy and I both laughed.

“If you are, you’re the prettiest criminal I’ve ever seen,” Randy said with a wink.

I found myself glaring at my cousin. “When will you get the results back?” I asked through gritted teeth.

Randy managed to pull his eyes off Mallory. “It shouldn’t take long. I have a fingerprint kit out in my car. Let me grab it so I can get your prints as well. Be right back.”

When we were alone, I glanced at Mallory. “I’m sorry about him. He was just trying to pay you a compliment.”

“It’s okay. I mean, I don’t feel very pretty right now, so it was kind of him.”

My brows shot up. “Mallory, you’re a very beautiful woman.”

Her cheeks blushed again…but something was different. Her eyes seemed to light up as well, and a strange tightness pulled across my chest at the sight.

She softly replied, “Thank you, Liam.”

Randy came back in and said, “Do you mind if we do this at the kitchen table. It’ll be sturdier.”

I stood off to the side and watched Randy take Mallory’s fingerprints. I had to keep from balling my fists as my cousin touched her repeatedly. Not in an intimate way…which is why it made me question why in the hell I wanted to rip my own cousin’s head off.

CHAPTER ELEVEN

Mallory

“Okay, now don’t be nervous. Put your foot on the brake and put it in Drive.”

Doing as Liam said, I held my breath and pulled the gear shift down to Drive.

“Next, slowly ease off the brake and just steer down the driveway. You’ll come to a T. Turn to the left.”

“Are you sure about this? We don’t know if I even know how to drive.”

Liam placed his hand over mine, which was still on the gear shift. “You’ll be fine. Besides, there’s nothing out here that you can hit. Except a cow or a horse.”

My head shot to the right to look at him. “Liam!”

He laughed, and I couldn’t help but giggle. This was only my second day of being with Liam, besides the two I’d slept through, and it felt like I’d known him forever.

I slowly let off the brake and gently pushed on the gas. The Subaru started down the drive and, after the turn, I managed to keep it on the gravel country road.

“Looks like we can safely say you know how to drive.”

Smiling, I felt a small sense of accomplishment. No other memories had come back to me, but being able to do something as simple as driving made me feel like I knew a little something about myself.

“I wish we could go into town and buy some clothes.”

Liam sighed. “I plan on going in to get you some stuff. Believe me, I wish you could go with me.”

I slowed and put the car in Park. “Could I go in a disguise, like we talked about?”

He shrugged. “Do you feel comfortable doing that?”

Chewing on my lower lip, I shook my head and sighed. “Not really. I think I would be a nervous wreck the entire time.”

Giving me a soft smile, he said, “Let’s turn around up there and head back. I’ve got to get some work done before Billy hunts me down.”
