Danna, seeing the amusement in Corrine's eyes, felt a surge of irritation but forced herself to maintain composure. "It doesn't matter if you don't know me, Miss Holland," she said coolly. "I've certainly heard plenty about you." She gave Corrine a slow, scrutinizing once-over before continuing, "Abandoned at the altar and now flaunting your beauty to charm one big shot after another.
