headed　down　the

stairs　to　his　own　room；　she　felt　disappointed。　Part　of　her　wondered　if

flirting　with　danger　could　end　on　a　happy　note　this　time。

The　night　manager　hadn't　only　left　extra　towels；　but　he'd　also　left　a

package　of　goodies　tailor…made　for　the　stranded　motorist。　There　was　a

toothbrush；　toothpaste；　a　b；　soap；　and；　luxury　of　luxuries；　an

envelope　of　bubble…bath　powder。

Chloe　smiled。　She'd　had　her　share　of　tension　today；　now　she　would

Rather；　she　thought　of　the　arms　that　had　held　her　earlier；　the　lips　that

had　kissed　her；　the　strong　body　that　had　supported　her。　Buoyed　by　a

sense　of　euphoria；　she　allowed　herself　to　think　back　on　the　full　story

of　that　night　eleven　years　ago。

It　had　been　the　holiday　recess。　She　and　Crystal　had　returned　from　their

first　semester　at　the　university　to　spend　Thanksgiving　with　the　family。
