“From there we’ll take 278 to Interstate 80. That way if he heads to Vegas, we’re fine. If he goes to Utah instead, we should still be fine, because we won’t be traveling on the same two-lane highway until Wendover. And we won’t be arriving in Salt Lake at the same time. It’s only a four-and-a-half hour drive from Ely.”

“And the drive we’re taking is…”

She couldn’t believe Preston was changing his precious agenda for their sake. She couldn’t believe he’d come back for them at all. “I thought you were in a hurry to reach Iowa.”

He scowled at the reminder. Then he glanced over his shoulder at Max, who was still crying for his father, and she figured he probably regretted it already.

Emma nearly shushed her son, then changed her mind and turned to stare out the window. She didn’t have the heart to ask one more thing of Max. Of course he was sad. He didn’t understand what was happening, only that he’d been ripped away from his father before he could even say hello.

“Max?” Preston said a few moments later. He adjusted the mirror so he could see her son, but Max wouldn’t answer him. “I got something for you.”

Surprised, Emma twisted in her seat to witness her son’s reaction. Max still didn’t answer, but his crying turned into an occasional hiccup.

“What is it?” he finally asked.
