PRESENT DAY
ENGLAND
The next time she traveled halfway across the world, she was going to
pack all her belongings in a bag with a functional zipper.
Imogen Honoria Maxwell looked at what her too-full suitcase had just
belched out in untidy piles around her and wished she had the energy to be
embarrassed. As it was, all she could do was imagine how blissful it might
feel to lie down on those piles and nap.
She looked up what seemed an endless number of stairs at King’s Cross
station, then wondered if she would draw undue attention to herself if she
simply sat down in the midst of the unmentionables and cried. She didn’t
cry as a general rule, preferring to sort of slide past Fate’s notice whenever
possible with a cheerful smile and a stiff upper lip, but she was in unusual
and dire circumstances. She’d just finished a hellish trip she’d been sure
would last the better part of eternity, she was in a foreign country where
they drove on the wrong side of the road, and she had one shot at being
brilliant at a job that could potentially bring her one step closer to her dream
career. It was best not to add any more drama to what she already had
going.
At least there didn’t seem to be a crowd of Londoners scooping up her
stuff and running off with it. That was the last thing she needed, to be in the
wilds of England with no clean underwear.
“Here, miss, let me help you.”
Imogen looked blearily at the people pushing past her and realized that
someone had actually stopped to help her. She would have blushed at the
sight of a very masculine hand gathering up her underclothes and stuffing
them back into her suitcase, but she was too jet-lagged to do anything but
stand there and yawn. She made a halfhearted effort to feel bad about not
helping—no, that was too much trouble, too. She would have made a
mental note to remind herself to get more sleep next time before a big trip,
but she didn’t have a pen and her mind was a blank. Maybe she would
remember it later.
The man straightened and picked up her suitcase, broken zipper and all.
“Is the rest of your gear manageable, think you?”
She would have laughed a little at the turn of phrase, but before she
could, she got a good look at her rescuer.
All right, so she wasn’t one to go for blonds. That guy there was
definitely gorgeous enough to leave her wondering if she’d made that
decision precipitously. He smiled, and the sight of his dimple left her
smiling as well.
“Well,” she began.
“I’ll fetch your other case along as well, shall I?”
