“Brix, you’re next.”
“Yes, sir.” Cadet Eden Brixton’s pulse took a quick, ready pounce. She
spared a glance at the classroom door before stepping to the front of the
semicircle of fellow students completing the twenty-week basic training
academy at Kentucky’s Department of Criminal Justice. Instructor
McMasters acknowledged her with a brisk nod and resumed inspecting the
class roster on his clipboard in an effort to pair her with another cadet for the
frisk exercise.
The delay didn’t fray her nerves. Like most of the curriculum, this
particular practicum she could do in her sleep. Conduct a pat down, find the
concealed weapon, disarm the suspect. That Chief Shaun Buchanan of the
Bluelick PD—her new boss, once she completed basic—was expected any
moment only added to her anticipation. Buchanan termed the visit “new
recruit outreach,” but she suspected it also involved sizing up the cadet her
father, SEAL Team Commander Noah “Brick” Brixton, had possibly pushed
on his former subordinate. She looked forward to demonstrating to Chief
Buchanan that she actually knew her ass from her elbow. And she was
confident she would, so long as…
“Swain,” McMasters barked.
…shit. Talons of a tension headache scratched at the back of her right eye
as she watched the cocky son-of-a-bitch wield his allegedly panty-dropping
smile and saunter his empirically perfect ass to the front of the room to stand
on the other side of McMasters.
Their instructor handed Swain a shoebox and pointed to the door that led to
the room behind the whiteboard wall. Her least favorite classmate shot her
that smile he used like a fisherman with a surefire lure—all the more lethal
thanks to the flash of white teeth against sun-gilded skin—and walked toward
the anteroom to conceal whatever weapon McMasters had placed in the box.
The SWAIN stenciled across the back of his T-shirt in big, block letters
mocked her as much as the curve of his lips. He moved his six feet, three
inches of athletically honed muscle with a loose, unhurried grace that
suggested the man refused to be rushed, even with a classroom of cadets and
one senior instructor waiting. His bone-deep self-assurance always managed
to raise her hackles.
Those sneaky talons sank a little deeper, causing a muscle around her eye
to twitch. Perfect. Swain embodied everything she detested in a person—
joker, wild card, devil with deep blue eyes and deceptively heroic shoulders.
He did absolutely nothing by the book but still managed to stay a measly five
points behind her number-one status in the class ranking. He was creative,
which she could admire, and unpredictable, which she distrusted, but it was
the occasional flashes of genius that really troubled her. She was a nose-inthe-books, outstudy-everyone, do-more-work-than-humanly-possible-andthen-do-it-again kind of student. Swain did the bare minimum, as far as she
could tell, but damn, the man read people, or situations, or whatever the hell.
