Chapter One
     
     
    Kate Winston watched the steaming water
surge from the kitchen faucet. The water mingled with the mild dish
soap, creating a bubble haven. As the orbs grew higher to the rim
of the washbowl, she sighed. This weekly ritual had started to
irritate her. Friday night she had go to the local singles' bar
with her friends from work, drink, flirt and go home alone. Always

    She'd arrived at home sexually frustrated
and tore into her bedroom, falling onto her bed with teardrops
escaping from her eyes. She told herself, prior to walking into the
bar last night, that she would not have her evening end this way.
But like always, it did.
    Kate reached over, turned off the hot water
tap and stared out the window into the evolving sunrise. The break
of dawn had arrived and so had her tradition of the morning after.
Releasing a long sigh, she rolled up the sleeves of her brother
Kurt's old shirt. Wishing the shirt really belonged to another man,
and plunged her hands deep into the tepid water. Washing the dishes
automatically, her mind drifted to all the other chores she had on
her list for the day.
    Kate dried her hands and moved to the coffee
pot, mindlessly filling her coffee mug. She sipped the hot brew,
burning her lips.
    “Mhmm,” she murmured, raising her fingertips
to her lips. The pain soon disappeared but reminded her of the pain
deep within her, the way Rome Sterling kept unknowingly breaking
her heart.
    She had arrived home the night before
downright pissed off at him for ignoring her advances. And not just
from last night, but from all the years of turn-downs. Her
frustration with Rome went well beyond
