Wine Astray: Spirit of the Soul Wine Shop Mystery (A Rysen Morris Mystery Book 1) (8 page)

“Come on,” he said to her.  “It can’t be any tougher than tracking down a thief and wrestling him to the ground, can it?”

Huh.  She had done that, hadn’t she?  “All right.  If you put it that way.”

“I’m serious, Ry.  You did something amazing for your sister.  You should consider hiring out your skills.”

“Whatever.”

“I’m being serious.”

She yawned again.  “Right.  Detective Rysen, at your service.”

“You’re getting a little loopy,” he whispered in her ear.  “Maybe you should go to sleep.”

“That’s what I was saying to you.  Sleep.  Sleep good.”

He laughed softly.  “All right.  I’ll be waiting for your call.”

“Mph.”

“Good night, Ry.”

He hung up, and Rysen found it was easier to just let the phone drop where it was and close her eyes and let herself drift.  Her brain kept going through the conversation even as it started to disconnect and send her back to the land of dreams.  What was it Josh had said?  She should become a detective?

She had enjoyed doing that for her sister.  In a weird way it had been…exciting.  She let herself think about it, really think about it, and it kind of didn’t seem so crazy anymore.

Maybe she had accidentally found something she was good at, and enjoyed, and could do for a living.  Didn’t detective agencies make a living doing things like that?  Or guys like Brandon with his security consultant business?

Brandon.  Her sleepy mind formed a picture of his beautiful face, in the moment when he had kissed her.  A sleepy thought came to her but she couldn’t hold onto it as sleep claimed her again.

Maybe it wasn’t the excitement and thrill of catching the bad guy that she had enjoyed so much.  Maybe it was being with Brandon.

It was there, and gone, and she slept peacefully for the first time since coming home.
