СКАЧАТЬ and Tess let her mind wander, lulled by the warm sunlight that was slowly changing to cool dusk outside her window. Nick’s car, a black BMW, was too expensive and too ostentatious, but it rode like a dream, and she snuggled deeper into the seat, loving the comfort of the butter-soft leather.

      “I love this car,” she said finally.

      Nick looked at her in surprise. “Really? This grossly expensive symbol of conspicuous consumption? I don’t believe it.”

      “Well, it is that. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t sweet.” She turned her head to look at him. “I like being with you, too, you know. When you’re like this. I could ride this way forever.”

      “I knew you’d be putty in my hands,” Nick said. “Play your cards right, sweetheart, and I’ll give you a ride home, too.”

      “You do the worst Bogart in the world.”

      “Yeah, but I’m getting better.”

      “Yeah, but it’s still the worst.”

      Nick grinned over at her, and Tess felt her heart lurch a little. Stop that, she told herself.

      “This idea you have of working at Decker is great,” Nick said, as he swung onto the bridge at the Ohio River. “It would be a good career move for you.”

      “It’s not a career move,” Tess said, craning her neck like a little kid to look out at the water. “I just need to support myself so I can work at the Foundation.”

      “You know, I don’t understand that,” Nick said. “Teaching is teaching. The only difference between the Foundation and Decker is that at Decker you’ll get paid a decent salary and—here’s a bonus—you won’t get mugged.”

      “No,” Tess said. “The difference is that the kids at the Foundation need me more than the kids at Decker. But they’re all kids, so it’ll be all right. I like kids.” She frowned down at the river. “I think I’d like to live on a houseboat.”

      “And Decker is a big step up,” Nick went on. “If Sigler likes you, you could easily move into administration—”

      “I’d die first,” Tess said. “How do houseboats work exactly? I mean, the plumbing.”

      “—and with your brains and focus you could be running the place in a year,” Nick finished. “I think this is just what you needed to get your life together.”

      “What?” Tess said. “Running what place?”
