Give Me Liberty
by Suzanne Brockmann (writing as Anne Brock)
Chapter One
She roared into town with about as much force and impact as a meteorite — and with damn near as much noise, too.
The muffler on her fancy foreign sports car had blown out, and as she rolled past Luke Fulton's shop, he heard the racket and looked out of the big plate-glass window.
She parked directly across Main Street, in front of the grocer's. The car was an ancient Triumph Spitfire, painted an almost-neon shade of blue. The driver was...
Luke squinted to get a better look at the woman who climbed out of the little car.
Tall. She was very tall. More than six feet, he guessed, by the length of her legs. Her blue jeans fit her like a second skin. Luke could tell from the way they were faded that they were the original article, worn down from hard work and wear instead of an acid wash. On top, she was wearing a T-shirt, nothing fancy, just plain white, with the sleeves rolled up. It fit her snugly, revealing a body that was trim and well-proportioned to the rest of her.

As Luke watched, she crouched down next to her car, looking at the muffler. She opened the trunk and pulled out a tool kit. Then, without regard for her clothes, she lay down on her back and scooted underneath the car.
Luke pointedly brought his eyes back to the work he'd spread out on the counter. What was going on out on Main Street wouldn't get him any further in preparing these financial statements. But as he looked down at the papers and figures, he couldn't concentrate.
In exasperation, he finally locked the cash register and went to the door, turning the "Be Right Back" sign to the front. As he stepped outside, the bells on the door rang as if warning him that he was making a mistake. He locked the door behind him.
