Excerpt from Beneath A Star-Lit Sky
“It hurts to stand on it.”
He should have her friends help her back down the trail. “Let’s get one of your friends on the other side.”
Another woman stepped to the side of Andrea, and between the two of them, she hobbled down the trail.
“It’s a good thing we have a strong guy like you to help us out of trouble,” the friend said, someone else whose name he couldn’t remember.
And there it was. Raul was married, so maybe he didn’t have women hitting on him all the time, but there was almost always one on every tour he’d done so far. “Best not to get into trouble in the first place.”
He got them back down to the van and loaded up. “Do you want me to take you to the urgent care clinic? It’s not big, but we have a doc who can check out your ankle.”
Andrea shook her head. “No, it’s not as sore as it was at first.”
Her cheeks tinged pink, and he wondered if it hurt at all.
“Besides,” she quickly added, “my friends can take me later if I need to go. I’ll just put some ice on it back at our room.”
