already been on the side of the road so she held her breath as she waited for somebody, anybody, to be her guardian angel and pick up the phone on the other end.
    Finally, after a quick conversation with an operator and a half dozen long and endless rings she heard, “Auto’s Garage. Can I help you?”
    Her breath rushed out in relief, “Oh thank God… I hope so.”
    “Whatcha need honey?”
    “My car broke down outside of town so I need a tow.”
    “Hmm…” The scratchy voice on the other end harrumphed, “How far out of town are we talkin?”
    “Uh… about fifteen miles.”
    The fact that laughter didn’t greet her was a good sign. Silence hung over the line for a long moment and she closed her eyes and sent up a silent prayer that whoever it was on the other end had a heart. She was down to her last hope so she laid it all on the line when the silence went on.
    “I’m just trying to get home and I’ve been driving all day. It’s only fifteen miles and I’ll… I’ll double your fee if you send someone.”
    It wasn’t a lie. Not really. She would happily pay double and she had more than enough in her account to cover it. Unfortunately, she didn’t have access to her bank right now and she was too scared Hoyt would see the charges to use the credit card. She would pay double, just not today.
    “Double?”
    “Double.” She confirmed to the interested party on the other end of the line. “Send someone east on the highway. I’ll be sitting in the black Jeep on the side of the road with the hood up. You can’t miss me.”
    “Hmm…” There was another harrumph, “You got a phone number we can reach you at?”
    She pulled the phone from her ear, glanced at the quickly fading light and frowned, “No. My phone is about to die. Just send someone, please.”
    “Okay. Okay. You hold tight and we’ll get to you just as soon as we can.”
    “Thank you. I really apprec…” The line went dead before she could finish her sentence and she sighed as she stared at the phone.
    Dead and she’d just barely gotten what she needed. The auto shop in Old Settlers was sending a tow truck. She hoped. She hadn’t given them her name or a number to reach her at. All she could do now was wait and pray that her guardian angel woke the hell up and decided to take an interest in his job tonight.

 
     
Chapter Two
     
     
    It had already been a long day by the time Auto sent him out to haul some broke-down Jeep off the side of the road right at closing time. Cash had only just received a text from his twin confirming the time and place for tonight’s fights when the call came in. He’d have to rush to make it there before his twin’s match but he’d never turned down a job his uncle offered and he didn’t intend to start today.
    Auto Bomar was Decker’s brother in almost every sense. He was not a good man. He wasn’t even a likeable man. But he was the only adult in the family Cash could recall ever giving a shit if he lived or died. Like his kid brother, Auto had done time in prison for crimes against humanity and he had a violent temper that terrified grown men, him included. Unlike Decker, he had a moral code that didn’t allow for that temper to ever touch women or children.
    He would never forget the day Auto had shown up and found him locked in a closet with an unconscious Colt in his lap. They’d been thirteen and Remy had been gone less than two months. Two months where Chrissy hadn’t come out of her fog long enough to even remember she had two other sons and two months where Decker had gotten drunk and beaten them daily.
    Colt had taken the brunt of it that last day, trying to shield his twin as he always did, and Decker hadn’t stopped swinging until his son went limp. When he’d stumbled drunkenly away, Cash had dragged his brother’s body behind the nearest door in the hopes that Decker would forget they existed. If Auto hadn’t eventually shown up, he and Colt would have died of starvation in
