with them didnât make Jenna any more relaxed.
Becca glanced down at the brochures in her hands. âAre you two planning any excursions? I was thinking of deep-sea fishing, parasailing or zip-lining.â
âI donât know about the fishing or parasailing,â Jenna responded. âBut the zip-lining was okay.â
Sawyer snorted. âIf you donât mind heights and plunging hundreds of feet down a cliff into the dark jungle.â
The brunette looked from Jenna to Sawyer and back. âI take it you two went and didnât enjoy it?â
Jenna shrugged. âThe anticipation of a violent death was worse than the actual event.â
âYou have no idea,â Sawyer muttered.
The bell dinged and Becca said, âThis is my floor. I hope to bump into you again.â She edged her way through several others and exited.
The man in the cowboy boots got off on the next floor, stopped and turned back toward the elevator doors as they closed. He stared into the car, his eyes narrowing. Jenna could swear he was looking straight at her.
A shiver shook her frame as the elevator rose. People got out until she and Sawyer were the only two left to ride the rest of the way to the top floor.
Jenna held her comments until they stood outside the bridal suite. âIâm getting twitchy.â
Sawyer ran the key card over the reader. The green light flashed on, and he pushed the door open. âWhat do you mean?â he asked, holding the door for Jenna to enter.
He followed, letting go of the door. It closed, shutting them into the room, away from prying eyes and curious people. Once inside, he pulled off the cap and sunglasses, exposing his gorgeous dark brown eyes and rumpled brown hair.
Off balance because of his mere presence, Jenna put distance between them. âI couldnât read the people in the lobby.â She crossed the large living area and ducked into the bedroom.
âWhat people were you trying to read?â Sawyer followed her, stopping in the doorway, his arms crossed over his chest.
Jenna hefted her suitcase onto the bed and flicked open the clasps. With a sense of relief, she stared down at the beautiful clothes sheâd purchased with Carlyâs help before the trip. For the past year, sheâd scrimped and saved for the wedding and the honeymoon. And for what? Her groom ran off with her former best friend. Fortunately, they hadnât combined their bank accounts, or she might have been out all of her savings.
Sheâd taken half the money they would have used for a down payment on a house and bought a whole new wardrobe, including sexy lingerie, with the intention of having the time of her life...and maybe even a fling while in Cancún...without Tyler.
She glanced from beneath her lashes at the man in the doorway, her imagination running rampant. A fling with Sawyer would far exceed her expectations. He was infinitely more muscular than Tyler, besides being utterly sexy and dangerous. Her heart fluttered, and she had to bring herself back to what was important. The danger that surrounded them.
âWhat bothered me most about going to the lobby and even riding up in a crowded elevator was the unknown,â Jenna said. âThe assassin could have been any one of the people in the lobby or elevator. He might appear to be a man on vacation in khaki slacks...â
âOr a guy in a blue polo shirt,â Sawyer finished for her.
She nodded. âYou were looking, too, werenât you?â
He straightened. âNow that you have your suitcase, you might be in the clear. All the more reason for me to get the gun case out of your possession.â
Jenna gnawed on her lower lip. âWhat are you going to do with it?â
âI know someone who could run fingerprints on it.â
âHavenât we handled it too much to lift clean prints?â she asked. What was she saying? She knew nothing about fingerprints and how to collect
