Saving the Hero Gavin could hear the panicked banter from the people inside the house behind him. They were frightened and confused. He could relate to both of those emotions at the moment.

Ever hear of a business owner whose primary motivation for selling his company was because he didn't want to cheat on his wife? Now you have, because I, Brent Voorhes, did just that.

His slightly curly auburn hair was stylishly rumpled as though he had just run his hands through it and his arresting green eyes were stressed.
