Treasuring Amber (The Temptation Saga 5) - Page 15

“What can I do you fer?”

“Remember when we used to hang out at Rachel’s?”

“Don’t remind me. I still have the scars from my run in with that big ass bouncer.”

Blake chuckled. Bernie sure knew how to get his ass in trouble. “You remember that sweet blond number with the legs?”

“Myrna?”

“No, blonder. She could wrap around a pole like nobody’s business.”

“Yeah, yeah. She left about a year or two ago, didn’t she? What was her name? Andrea or something?”

Blake took a drink from the bottle of beer he held. “Ambrosia. She called herself Ambrosia Love.”

“How could I forget? She was fine.”

“She was. Still is.” He lay down on his bed and set the beer on the night table. “You’re not going to believe this, but she’s right here in Bakersville, Colorado, working as a manicurist.”

“No way.”

“I’m not kidding. She’s still hot as hell. Goes by Amber Cross.”

“Wow. You gonna hook up with her?”

Blake’s skin prickled. “I’d love it, but I have bigger fish to fry at the moment. Donetto isn’t going to wait forever for me to pay him back. He already knows where I am.”

“Well, of course he knows. You went back to a town you used to live in for God’s sake.”

“I came back here because I thought I could find work.” He grabbed the beer and took another drink. “I was a damn good ranch hand at one time. I never should have gone to San Antonio.”

“Wrong. San Antonio was fine. You never should have gotten involved with Donetto. Period. I tried to warn you.”

“I know, Bernie, I know. But listen, I need a favor.”

“What’s that?”

“I need the password to your brother’s web site, the one that costs an arm and a leg?”

“I can’t give you that.”

“Look, I can’t afford to pay the fee to log in myself. Please. I might be able to pay Donetto back if I can find the lovely Ambrosia on the site.”

“Blake—”

&

nbsp; “Please, Bernie. I’ll owe you big.”

Silence on the other end of the line. Blake’s heart pounded.

Then, “Shit. All right. I guess it can’t hurt. Log in as DickRobbins, password sw34789.”

“Thanks, you’re a pal.”

“Just don’t let Lance find out you’re using his site for free. He’ll fuckin’ kill me.”

“Understood.”
