The Greek Tycoon's Achilles Heel (2010) - Plot & Excerpts
‘This is me; it’s who and what I am.’ ‘You don’t let anyone in, do you?’ Petra said. He shook his head with an air of finality. Suddenly then he said, ‘But I will tell you one thing. It may only be a coincidence, but it’s strange. After I’d taken you back to your room I returned to the tables and suddenly started winning back everything I’d lost. I just couldn’t lose, and somehow that was connected with you, as though you’d turned me into a winner. Why are you smiling?’ ‘You, being superstitious. If I’d said all that you’d make some snooty masculine comment about women having overly vivid imaginations.’ ‘Yes, I probably would,’ he admitted. ‘But perhaps you just exercise a more powerful brand of magic.’ ‘Magic?’ ‘Don’t tell me you’ve studied the Greek legends without discovering magic?’ ‘Yes,’ she conceded, ‘you meet it in the most unexpected places, and the hard part is knowing how to tell it from wishful thinking.’ She spoke the last words so softly that he barely heard them, but they were enough to give him a strange sensation, part pleasure, part pain, part alarm.
