Wishing he’d back her in telling the redhead either to fly with her or find another service, Amelia frowned at her dad.
“Listen, maybe the guy was involved in a plane crash where a woman pilot was at the controls. Who knows?”
“All right, Dad. It still irks me.” Especially since she’d crashed a plane—on purpose—to give herself and the heist gang’s possible hostage a chance to live. That still troubled her. No decent pilot should ever be forced to do such a thing.
Her father knew that was why the passenger’s attitude bothered her and was empathetic. “I don’t blame you. I have to take this group up and I’ll just use your plane. If you have any trouble with anything, call me.”
“Sure will.” This was going to be one of those days, Amelia thought. First, she’d been running late because of car trouble. Then, while she was loading Winston’s dog food in the car, he’d made a mad dash out the door of her duplex to chase a cat. She knew he’d just wanted to make friends with it—not that the cat would understand. She’d wasted a good twenty minutes chasing after him. Even her electric teapot had decided to conk out right before she had her first cup of tea. Now this.
Her dad headed out with his passengers, and she hoped the disagreeable man wouldn’t give her dad grief. Her brother had already taken up another group.
Amelia was getting ready to pack Winston’s container of kibble in the plane when a black SUV pulled into the parking area and the driver cut the engine. An orange canoe was secured on top. He must be the guy wanting the trip into the Boundary Waters. When a redheaded man exited the car and hurried to grab a couple of bags, her jaw dropped. Gavin Summerfield. In the flesh.
No way!
Her heart raced. How could he keep showing up in her life?
Was this karma or what? It was like the gods had decided she was going to have to deal with this man, one way or another. After the issue with her first wolf boyfriend, she always carried a Taser gun. So she was ready if Gavin gave her any real trouble.
He turned to ask, “Is Henry White here?” Bags in hand, Gavin stopped dead in his tracks, frowning, looking just as shocked to see her as she was about seeing him here.

Acknowledgments
Thanks so much to Darla Taylor and Donna Fournier for another great read-through and catching so many typos and such. And to Donna for keeping me straight on boating terminology for canoeing since I’ve done some of every kind of boating, but it’s all just boating to me! I also want to thank her for taking me around the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness near Ely, Minnesota, to create the setting for this book. Also, thanks to Deb Werksman for helping to polish up the book and the book cover artists for giving us art that wows us!
