SHE WOKE UP THE NEXT morning, knowing she’d slept too late even before her eyes landed on the bedside clock that read 10:25.

She sat up and blinked around. She was still in Lincoln’s room. It looked the same as it had the night before. But Lincoln wasn’t there.

“Lincoln?” she called out, in case he was in the bathroom or in her room that was connected by an open doorway.

He didn’t answer. He wasn’t there.

He’d gone somewhere. For some reason the idea made her stomach sink. She tried to talk herself out of it. She’d slept really late. He’d probably just run downstairs for breakfast or to work out. Yes, they’d had sex last night, but a one-night stand certainly didn’t require him to hang around bored until she managed to wake up.

There was no reason to feel lonely and disappointed.

She shifted on the bed, recognizing how sore she was after the sex they’d had last night. Then she flopped back down onto the pillow and stared at the ceiling, trying to figure out how she felt and what it all meant.

She’d come to no answers when the door opened and Lincoln came into the room, dressed in jeans and a gray T-shirt and carrying a paper bag and two cups of coffee.

She sat back up, pulling up on the straps of her tank top that had flopped down past her shoulder.

“Hey,” Lincoln said. “You’re awake.”

“I’m awake. I didn’t mean to sleep so long.”

“I just woke up an hour ago. Got some coffee and a breakfast sandwich if you want it.”

“Thank you!” She reached for the coffee and tasted it, pleased to discover it already had the right amount of cream in it.

Lincoln came over and sat on the edge of the bed near where she was sitting. He scanned her face as he sipped his own coffee, and something about the look felt significant.

“What is it?” she asked.

“I talked to Carter.”

“You did? When?”

“Just now. I took a chance and pounded on his door, and he was there.”

“How is he?”

“He’s a wreck, as you’d expect. But he’s sober now, and at least he’s willing to talk.”

“What did he say?”

“Not much. He’s mad that I brought you here.”

“I brought you here.”

“Yeah, I didn’t try to explain that to him. I’d rather him be angry with me than angry with you. He’s used to that. But I think he’ll be open to talking to you if you want to do that.”

She jumped out of bed, wincing just slightly at the way the muscles in her stomach stretched. “Yes. Definitely. I’ll run and get dressed and go see him right away before he changes his mind and leaves the room.”

“I don’t think he’ll be leaving anytime soon. He’s seriously a wreck. You can probably take your time.”

She was already hurrying to her room with her coffee. “I don’t want to take my time. I want to go now. I’m just going to throw my clothes on.”

She had second thoughts after she’d closed the connecting
