But Kit wasn’t worried about the atmosphere. Today, for the news conference she’d planned, the surroundings hardly mattered. And as for the bachelor auction itself—well, they’d just have to wait and see about that. Privately, she was still placing her bets on Jarrett refusing to have anything to do with the event-though after Saturday night she was no longer quite so certain. The way he’d bantered about the raffle, without even pausing to think it over, had shaken her just a little. Of course, it hadn’t all been banter. He’d also managed to make it plain, without coming straight out and saying so, that if Kit went ahead with the raffle, he didn’t intend to settle for the luck of the draw. All the nonsense about fixing the contest so Kit’s would be the name drawn out of the hat was only that, of course—nonsense. In white lace, she thought wryly, I’d look like a walking stick wrapped in a fancy hankie—and he knows it. No, he hadn’t been serious about that. He’d used the image to make it clear that he wasn’t above finagling the outcome till it suited him.
