La première fois que j’ai rencontré Noah Parker, il m’a demandé si j’étais escort.

Das Nächste, was ich sehe, ist das markante und extrem mürrische Gesicht meines milliardenschweren Kunden Theo Barnes, der mich von oben herab ansieht. Wenn ich Goldlöckchen bin, ist er so griesgrämig wie die drei Bären. Ich war überarbeitet und gestresst, weil ich das Fotografieren seiner Jachtflotte mit meinen anderen Projekten jonglieren musste. Als mich dann noch ein superbequemes Bett auf einer seiner Jachten einlädt, bin ich weggedöst.

Odio las despedidas de soltera. Odio la idea de pasar una noche llena de pajitas con forma de pene, pasos de baile ridículos y mujeres diciéndome: «¡Tú serás la siguiente, Kaitlyn!». Y las odio todavía más si son en una discoteca superglamurosa de Miami, exactamente el tipo de lugar donde no encajo. La cosa no podría ser peor, ¿no? Pues sí, podría ser peor. Con ustedes, el señor «Más-Guapo-Imposible».

Als ich Noah Parker das erste Mal traf, fragte er mich, ob ich eine Escort sei. Anscheinend ist es für einen milliardenschweren Sportagenten normal, fremde halb nackte Frauen in seinem Hotelzimmer vorzufinden …Das hat mich aber nicht davon abgehalten, ihn mit einem Stiletto zu bewerfen.

Ich habe etwas zu gestehen. Ich hasse Junggesellinnenabschiede. Eine Nacht voller Penis-Strohhalme, peinlichem Tanzen und der Ansage: Du bist auch bald dran, Kaitlyn! Vor allem, wenn sie in einem superschicken Club in Miami stattfindet, wo ich eigentlich nicht hingehöre. Schlimmer kann es doch gar nicht werden, oder? Hier kommt Mr. Groß, Dunkel und ich wusste nicht, dass es so schöne Menschen gibt. Mr. Griesgram schlechthin. Sein finsterer Blick hat etwas Bedrohliches. Vor allem, nachdem ich einen Kellner und mich mit einer Ladung Champagner überschüttet habe.
