The apartment tower where Mitchell Harlow lived overlooked Country Club Plaza, making the sprawling shopping district a natural choice for his regular morning jogs. The building also had a reputation as the most expensive in Kansas City, and Mitchell’s home near the top of the tower was one of the more desirable locations, probably second only to the Maxwells’ penthouse.

No wonder Mitchell hadn’t thought seriously before now about selling the autographs, Amy thought. Though his regular income might not run to floating pleasure palaces, he obviously didn’t have any trouble making ends meet.

The security officer at the main door checked Amy’s name off his list and phoned upstairs to confirm that she was on her way. While she waited, she couldn’t help looking at the clipboard which held the very short list of visitors who were expected by tower residents that evening. It was lying on the desk at an awkward angle, so she couldn’t have read all the names even if she’d been nosy enough to try. But she surely couldn’t have missed seeing Dylan’s name if it had been there, because it would have been right next to her own. Which it was not.

So she’d definitely read Mitchell correctly, and she’d made the right choice in leaving Dylan out of this consultation.

What is it between you and Mitchell Harlow?

But she didn’t have time to wonder about it, for the elevator silently and swiftly took her almost to the top of the tower. Mitchell was waiting in the lobby, the main door of the condo standing open behind him.

Mitchell smiled indulgently. “It’s pretty, isn’t it?” He waved a hand at a squashy black leather sofa which was ideally placed to capture the view. “Would you like a glass of wine?”

“Later, perhaps,” Amy said. “I wouldn’t want to take a chance of spilling a drop on an important document.”

“But my man has already opened the bottle. I thought perhaps we’d talk first and look at autographs later.”

A tiny warning bell went off in the back of Amy’s mind.

“I want to find out about auctions and things,” Mitchell went on. “What you do all the time. I don’t know much about how it all works.” He filled a stemmed glass with red wine and handed it to her.

She relaxed, took the glass, and sat down on one end of the sofa, smiling inwardly at herself. How suggestible could a woman be, anyway? Just because Dylan thought he saw wolves lurking at the edge of the forest didn’t mean they were really there—but one ambiguous comment from Mitchell and she had been ready to shriek and run. What had she been thinking? Mitchell Harlow was far from a wolf.

“Perhaps you’d like to come to the auction we’re holding on Friday evening,” she said. “The
