As we left the eatery, I threw away the unused ticket to Galway and pulled out my boarding pass to Washington, D.C., with a connection to Paris and followed him to our gate. Rémy had given me the ticket a few days before. We had worked out weeks ago our plan for me to go to France to meet with the current Oracle while she was still living. His family had made all the arrangements, insisting I keep everything secret from everyone, a decision I found extremely difficult. Rémy impressed upon me the need for all the subterfuge, assuring me the Irish Seer Council and my family would not understand and would attempt to keep me from the Gaulish clan. I had reluctantly agreed, knowing I would have to pay the piper when I returned to Albuquerque. I hadn’t even told Jack. I hoped he would forgive me.
So here I was, about to fly to France with a 22 year-old Seer who had been masquerading as a foreign exchange student all semester. I really, really hoped it was not the worst decision I had ever made.
The End
Acknowledgements
As always, lots of love and kisses to my family for their patience and indulgence while I was absorbed in my manuscript. I couldn’t do this without your love and support. Thanks to my mom and Cat, who have conversations with me about my characters as if they were real people. Special thanks to Mom, who took me to France; I wouldn’t know about Rouen if it wasn’t for you. Thanks to my bestie, Carol, for reading everything and listening to me rant for hours on end. You have made this adventure such fun! Thanks to my students for giving me great ideas for conversations and fashion. Michelle and Stephanie, I owe you for the amazing wedding story. Be careful what you tell me because it will end up in a book!
Special thanks to my readers. I can’t tell you how much it means when one of you tells me you enjoy my stories.
