Starsky watched as Hutch, AKA C.W. Jackson, picked his way into the hearts of the patrons of the Backwoods Inn. Fingers flying over the guitar strings, Hutch was in his element. After a moment's hesitation, there'd been no trace of the paralyzing stage fright he'd experienced when he sang with Sue Ann Grainger last year.

Maybe it was because he was undercover this time, pretending to be someone he wasn't.

Hutch threw Starsky a grin. Starsky tamped down a wave of desire, squeezed the pretty girl at his side, and managed to grin back.

He was undercover too, after all.
