Kate: a Universal Truth (A Wish for Love Series book 1)
“She sighed and looked despairingly at Emma. Finally making up her mind, she chose a wine red skirt that fell to her ankles in soft folds and a long sleeved cream colored blouse of silk, satin and lace with a frilly collar. She gathered her hair with a ribbon and added a pair of pearl earrings. The earrings were a legacy from Kate's mother who had died of a rare blood disease when Kate was twenty-one.
Taking a last look in the mirror she was pleased with her reflection. The effect was dign...ified and conservative, although more feminine and graceful than if she had she worn a suit. Emma looked beautiful in a blue dress. Her hair was brushed high on her head and her sweet features were highlighted by pink lipstick. They took their raincoats and started on their way.
The weather was cool but the rain stopped and they decided to walk the streets separating their flat from the college. They agreed that later they would forget their penny-pinching and take a taxi to the party at Hastingham, an extravagant, rococo palace about thirty miles from Oxford. The taxi ride would be expensive but Kate knew she was the only one among the younger staff to receive an invitation and she was reluctant to trouble Sir Bruton with her transportation problems.MoreLess
