Practice Makes Perfect
When they played racquetball, Pippi sensed Jeremy's controlled power, his lean body graceful as a jungle cat. But when they went for coffee later, the image vanished, replaced by that of her dear best friend. Always there for her each time a romance turned sour, he was just her confidant, her shoulder to cry on ... or was he? When he asked for her help in courting another, Pippi felt her heart clutch in surprising distress, but she vowed to teach him to woo his beloved--she owed him that much! Yet the "practice sessions" seemed compellingly real, and Pippi's confusion grew. As the rehearsals became more intimate, Jeremy's natural ability surprised his instructor--and almost broke her heart. Just what was Jeremy trying to do?
