Roarke could just see her profile as she read the transmission. It was enough to measure the change in her eyes, the way they darkened, then went flat and cool.
She put the communicator away, and when she turned back to him, there was very little of the woman who’d vibrated in his arms in the woman who faced him now.
“I have to go. We’ll be in touch about your property.”
“You do that very well,” Roarke murmured. “Slide right into the cop’s skin. And it fits you perfectly.”
“It better. Don’t bother seeing me out. I can find my way.”
“Eve.”
She stopped at the doorway, looked back. There he was, a figure in black surrounded by eons of violence. Inside the cop’s skin, the woman’s heart stuttered.
“We’ll see each other again.”
She nodded. “Count on it.”
He let her go, knowing Summerset would slip out of some shadow to give her the leather jacket, bid her good night.
Alone, Roarke took the gray fabric button from his pocket, the one he’d found on the floor of his limo. The one that had fallen from the jacket of that drab gray suit she’d worn the first time he’d seen her.
Studying it, knowing he had no intention of giving it back to her, he felt like a fool.
“That’s one of the seven deadly sins, gluttony. It just seemed right that he would die by sin. Are you sure you won’t have another cookie?”

Na ogól w filmach/książkach wszystko kończy się ślubem, a tu się ślubem tak na prawdę zaczyna

Widać ich wspólne zaufanie i to, jak bardzo się potrzebują. A to pierwsza taka część, gdzie to ona się troszczy i to tak wyraźnie i to mnie zachwyca
