Fugitive Millionaire (Fugitive Millionaire Book One)

“I’m gonna miss you too, little lady. You really got me thinking that maybe I need to find a job that doesn’t involve babysitting a pampered princess, or breaking the law. You guys better get going. The car is parked inside the big barn. Drive along the back road until you hit the main highway. Good luck.” Clancy leaves.
“I’ll go get the car and drive it up to the cabin so we can load in our stuff,” Fabian says.
“This hideout didn’t work out like you planned, huh?”
Fabian takes a moment to make amends. “Claire, I apologize for getting you mixed up in this crazy shit. If I would have known about Amanda being such a freak, I would have never brought you here, or come here myself, for that matter.”
“Oh, I know that. There’s no way you could have predicted any of this.”
Fabian tenderly kisses Claire. “I’m so glad you’re sticking by me, baby. I really need you now more than ever.”
Claire wouldn’t dream of leaving him now. She’s into him way too deep to even think about changing her mind. The things she has done so far to preserve their relationship have even astonished her. She now believes with all her heart that she and Fabian can get through anything together.
Claire teasingly nudges Fabian. “So, tell me, Clyde, where are we headed next?”
Fabian wraps his arm around her. “Well, Bonnie, I figured we’d drive until we find a decent town were we can hold up for a spell without being noticed. We’ll rent a motel room and plan our next move. How’s that sound?”
Claire brushes away unruly strands of hair from her eyes. “That works for me. We’re a couple of unstoppable fugitives.”
Claire watches Fabian head towards the barn to get the SUV. There’s no place else in the whole world she’d rather be right now than on the run with him.
