Maybe this was a sign that today would be a good day. She looked at her cell phone. Oh, no. Her alarm hadn’t gone off. She should’ve gotten up two hours ago. She couldn’t believe she’d slept at all, but she had. Deeply. And now she might be too late to go with Mitch to see Nathan’s boss. She jumped out of bed, and hearing low murmurs drifting down the hall, she decided to see what she’d missed. She slipped into her robe and slippers that Dani had tossed in her suitcase yesterday and Mitch had retrieved from his car. She smiled over the memory from last night when a clean Angie had emerged from the bathroom looking more normal. And of Mitch, wrapping those powerful arms around his sister as if welcoming home the prodigal son. Kat’s heart took a leap at his caring—she would never forget the look in his eyes. The softness. The warmth. The love. Maybe because if she searched deep enough inside, she’d admit she wanted him to look at her the same way.
