Katie stiffened angrily, and said very quietly and very distinctly, "Go to hell." Intending to walk away, she pivoted on her heel, then gasped in surprise as Ramon's hand clamped on her arm, jerking her around to face him.

A jolt rocked through Katie as his warm lips covered hers in a lingering kiss . This novel is a work of fiction.
