I originally suggested this theory a long time ago, but I can't see that it's been negated by anything since then, so I'll repeat it: the idea is that Lea's bargain with Susan gave her access, not only to Susan's memories of Harry, but to Susan's feelings toward him. Including, somehow, the true love protection that Susan had from Harry. Lea never actually removed any of Susan's memories, remember; she just covered them up, while simultaneously giving herself access to them.
My guess is that Lea created some sort of link between herself and Susan through those memories of Harry, and that with those feelings came some of the love that Susan felt for him, and that Harry felt for her. Because of this, as long as the connection was in place, Lea had access to Susan's true love protection. She decided to play around with it by kissing Thomas on the cheek and showing off the fact that it burned him.
The whole idea is pretty vague, because we've never been told anything about a spell like that, but it fits with Lea's pleased and amused demeanor at the time, as well as the timeline of the events.
asetti:
There is also a theory that Lea loved either Maggie Sr or Harry's Father and is protected from the white court (ahla justine).

Wouldn't the protection have run out after about 40 years? I thought it had to be renewed?
Mr. Death:
Nope. Only if she's broken it, somehow, like by schtupping someone else.

Didn't she do that with Harry earlier in the series? Or was it just an incredibly suggestive scene but no actual sex? My memory's fuzzy.
