Their marriage had gone up in flames
Jake Harvey was every woman's secret type. During their brief and
volatile union, Kate had been wildly jealous, dangerously insecure,
and he'd never reassured her with words of love--only of desire.
Kate went up like dry tinder every time Jake touched her, and she
resented that power over her almost as much as she abhorred his
career. Finally he threw her out, saying, "Come back when you've
grown up. "
But Jake had come to her instead. And Kate's fuse was as short as
ever when it came to him, his work and the latest woman clinging to
his arm.
