Summary
"Judith’s laugh cuts through the utter silence of the night. Silence and darkness. That had been the “promise” of this little sleep retreat after all. None of the brochures had mentioned the highly effective signal blockers blanketing the bedrooms. Something about sleep hygiene. Bullshit. How was Blanche supposed to sleep if she couldn’t finish her to-do list? And who needed that much sleep anyway?"

Summary
Blanche Knopf believes she has crafted the perfect epilogue, allowing herself the indulgence of speaking the truth with love and tenderness. She didn't anticipate that Judith Jones's impeccable instincts would lead to a reunion with Blanche and everything their connection represents.
"Hush now, we may not have all the time that I wish, but there is enough to exist here for a while in what we have created, to learn in each other in this way rather than dancing around the edges of desire." Judith scolds tenderly."Did you gleefully steal that line from a desperate author destined for the reject pile? It's not even worth taking out the editor's pen?" Blanche asks, genuinely curious.
"Why should frustrated men in their 40s and 50s get a monopoly on desire and appreciating the art of the female form?"
"Don't raise that at the next company event. There are limits to Knopf's sense of progress." Blanche leans over, greedy for another kiss.

Summary
Blanche's fingertips find their way to Judith’s cheek in the silence that follows. “Where would I be without you?”
“You’d be right here.” Judith dips her head. “Maybe with a bit more competition from another publishing house for some of your authors, but…”
“I would have lured you away. They could never have offered you what I did.”
