“Kat!” Ron said, escorting them into his home. Warmth and bright lights greeted them as they entered the foyer. People dotted the Venetian-style living room in pairs and small groups, while tuxedoed waiters passed out glasses of champagne and hors d’oeuvres. Murmured conversations mixed with the snazzy ragtime music, accentuated by the occasional burst of laughter. She and Dean waved to Alan as he passed by with a tray full of festive red martinis.

Ron kissed her on both cheeks, then pivoted on the heel of Gucci loafers to give Dean’s hand a hardy shake. “And Dean!” He smiled broadly. “I’m so glad you both came.” His gaze shifted between them. Kat caught the speculative twitch of his eyebrow as he took in Marine’s absence and Dean’s arm around her shoulders. She sighed inwardly. There was always speculation about her and Dean.

Ron loved matchmaking. She suspected that he originally intended for her and Dean to hook up way back when she started with Sharpe Designs and became an official member of the family. On her first day, she should have been placed with another graphic artist, but Ron had sat her next to his golden-boy designer instead. In a way, Ron had achieved another one of his magic pairings. It wasn’t the love match she was certain he hoped for, but they did work well together, making some truly unique websites for the eclectic clientele of artists and authors and small businesses Sharpe Designs catered to. The firm was large enough now to have separate art and production departments, but they still sat next to one another, sharing a small alcove on the top floor of the SoHo office building the company currently occupied.
