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».

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.

Je dois vous avouer quelque chose. Je déteste les enterrements de vie de jeune fille. Une nuit à boire avec pailles en forme de bites, à danser maladroitement et à s’entendre répéter « Ce sera bientôt ton tour, Kaitlyn ! » Surtout quand ladite nuit a lieu dans ce club ultra branché de Miami, exactement le genre d’endroit où je n’ai pas ma place. Vous vous dites que ça ne peut pas être pire ? Entre M. Grand, Ténébreux et « Je ne savais pas que les gens pouvaient être aussi beaux. » Le grincheux par excellence. Même ses sourcils froncés ont les sourcils froncés.

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.
