Might have a couple of kinks to work through, Hale admitted then reached for her hand. As soon as he touched her, Kat knew there was no such thing as curses. People make and break their own fortunes--they are the masters of their own fate. And right then Kat wouldn't have changed a thing.

You don't have to do this, Kat. I've been hearing that a lot lately. He's right. I didn't say who had said it, she countered. You didn't have to. He looked out at the water. You two are good together. We're not together, Kat said automatically. Sure you are. You just don't know it yet.

Even after the plane took off, they kept debating security perimeters and protocols. I'm pretty sure they argued for forty-five minutes about where the best place for cappuccino was near the Colosseum.

Good for him, Hale said. And then he stopped. There were four other people in the room, but Hale only looked at Kat, and something in his gaze burned her, froze her, made her want to run.
