I almost used that one myself earlier, Kathy! This is When Friends Become Lovers, by Kathy Brown and Demi.
Lois fumbled with her keys as she mounted the steps of the
townhouse. It had been a long day; right after lunch,
there'd been a news flash reporting massive flooding and
mudslides in Venezuela. Clark had flashed her a look and
was gone.
He'd been away for hours, leaving her to cover for him, and
she knew it might be hours more before he came home; he
wouldn't leave until he was sure he'd saved everyone who
could be saved. And when he did get home, he'd be
exhausted and dispirited. She pulled open the outer door.
Maybe she should think about ordering in some of his
favorite Chinese dishes. Or something from that little
Thai place he liked. Or...
The knife came from nowhere, sharp against her throat.
"Don't scream," ordered a low, threatening voice. "Don't
move until I say."
