That was long ago . . . far in the past. She was over it now.

    “Sure. I know that. And it made me cautious. I understand that.”

    Grace nodded, but Kara could tell there was more she wanted to say.

    Kara glanced at her watch. “You know what. I think I’d like some dessert. How about you?”

    Kara walked into the Tulip Ballroom and glanced around. About half the seats had been taken, but since people never crowded together by choice, there were empty seats in all the rows. She wanted to be near the front so she could see this Jeremy guy, watch his body language, and ensure she could hear everything. She nabbed a seat in the second row to the right of center.

    People continued pouring into the room. The place was filling up fast. This Tantra seemed pretty popular.

    Sure, if you tell people there’s a way to make sex better, you’ll pique their interest. Tell them you can also make it acceptable and they’ll flock to your door.

    She settled into her seat and pulled her notebook and pen from the tote bag. She tapped her pen on her notebook, wondering what this Jeremy would look like. A woman sat down beside her. Only a few scattered seats were left vacant, including the one to her right. She glanced toward the door and . . . She sucked in a breath when she saw J.M. step into the room.

    Oh, my God, what’s he doing here?

    She snatched the schedule from inside her notebook and held it in front of her face as if reviewing her workshop choices. She peered over the paper, worried that he’d be heading for the empty chair beside her.

    Why the hell am I hiding? I have every right to be here.

    She lowered the schedule, ready to face him, but he wasn’t heading this way at all. He moved to the front of the room.

    “Good afternoon, everyone. My name is Jeremy Smith and this session is about Tantra and how it can improve your sex life.”

    Good God, he’s the speaker?

    Anger simmered through her as she crossed her arms and glared at him. This man had not only hidden the fact he was coming to this conference, but when he’d seen his book in her bag, he hadn’t admitted he was the author! What kind of game was he playing?

Chapter Seven

    “Good afternoon. My name is Jeremy Smith and this talk is about Tantra and how it can improve your sex life. Most people are aware of the Kama Sutra. Many of you probably have a copy on your bedside table at home.”

    He smiled and a few people laughed.

    “It’s a popular book to seek out when we want to improve our sex life because it offers many interesting sexual positions we might not have tried before. But sex is not just physical. Of course, we think about love as greatly enhancing any sexual relationship, but what I’m talking about is energy. The Chinese call this energy Chi. The Japanese call it Ki.”

    As J.M. talked, he felt as if someone was staring at him. Of course, the room was packed full of people who were all watching him right now, but what he sensed was different. He glanced around the room, surveying the faces in the crowd, then his gaze caught on two piercing blue eyes.

    Kara sat in the second row a mere ten yards away. Delight wafted through him at the sight of her, despite her glower. Her showing up here seemed a sure sign they were destined to be together. She narrowed her eyes as their gazes caught, and he could sense sparks of anger flaring from her. He simply smiled and continued his talk.

    The two and a half hours seemed to take forever to pass, despite the enthusiasm of his audience and the many questions they asked.

    Finally, the workshop came to an end and after a round of applause, people packed up their things and began flowing from the room. He had to fight a powerful urge to rush through the crowd and head off Kara before she left. Though with the crowd of people gathering around him, he couldn’t see if she was still at her seat. Given the anger flashing in her eyes, he was sure she’d leave as soon as possible.

    He always
