Brandi lay in bed that night reviewing the day. Other than that hot kiss, Zach had been the perfect gentleman for their day out. It had been a date or at least it felt like a date. He hadn’t kissed her again. He’d taken her on a picnic and then they drove some more in the country. It had been perfect and what they both needed.

Then reality came crashing back in. She was in some kind of danger and her father had put her there. She needed to know exactly what she was dealing with here. If her father wouldn't tell her, she’d find out another way.

She called Fred.

“Hey, Brandi.”

“Did I wake you? I didn’t realize what time it was.”

“No, it’s fine. What can I do for you?”

“I need some information that only you can give me. I’ll understand if you can’t.”

“This sounds serious, Brandi.”

She sat up. “I need to know who exactly my father owes money to.”

“That’s a tall order.”
