PARKER WOKE well before the late winter dawn, which was totally, utterly normal for him. What wasn’t normal was the faint sting of disappointment he felt when he realized Mandy wasn’t there, and the subsequent flush of discomfort when he remembered how far things had gone the night before.

It wasn’t the physical aspect that had him staying in the shower longer than usual, trying to figure out his next move. Sex was sex, after all, and he’d had enough positive feedback over the years to know he was pretty good at it. More importantly, it had never been a question that he and Mandy were good together. Heck, they were beyond good, and that was the problem, because he’d gotten in way deeper than he’d meant to the night before, way deeper than he ever had before, even with his ex-wife, who he’d been crazy about when they married.

But, as she’d pointed out too many times to count, being crazy about someone wasn’t the same as loving them. Crazy was something you could step away from, love wasn’t. Love was all about emotion, all about setting aside logic and letting go.

It was about forever.

Mandy might not have forever, though. Unless they pulled off a miracle, she had the next two days and that was it. If having him close to her, both physically and emotionally, for that time would help, then that’s what he was going to do.

Ignoring the faint warning chime in the back of his brain, he headed downstairs expecting to find her in the kitchen, showered and powering up with a cup of coffee.

He found her in the living room with papers strewn around her. She was muttering to herself as he came into the room, and when he cleared his throat, she looked up quickly, her eyes wild. “I think he’s using nanotechnology to send the toxin particles into the organs, getting them out of the bloodstream as quickly as possible. Question is—where is he sending them and how can we block it?”
