“Get up, sleepyhead! We’ve got some training to do. Today you’re going to start teaching me how to shoot. I want to be Annie Oakley!”

The words came from several universes away and barely made sense to him.

Someone shook his shoulder.

Jack didn’t even have the strength to open his eyes. He was under some kind of boulder that wouldn’t let him move his muscles.

“Jack, wake up!”

A finger pulled up one eyelid and he saw a sideways Caroline, watching him with bright eyes.

How could she be bright-eyed when he felt like he’d been hit by a train?

“Open both those baby browns,” she crooned. “That’s right. Good boy.”

He could open his eyes, barely, but nothing else could move. He was utterly and completely wiped out.

His eyes tracked around the room. It was morning, the pale pearly light of a snowy morning filtering in through the windows. How could it be morning when two seconds ago he’d fallen asleep?

“Get up, get up! We’ve got work to do!” his wife cried. “Training, cleaning up the bookstore, celebrating Christmas . . . and celebrating something even more important. But first—Rambette!”

She was grinning. He blinked. Her eyes were bright and her color was high. She was dressed for the outdoors, mittens hanging from her parka by their strings. She danced in place like a boxer.

Jack licked dry lips. “Work?” he croaked. How could she have all this energy when he felt like he’d died a week ago?

“I’m going to start training seriously, and by God, you were right!”

Jack blinked, his thought processes fuzzy and slow. “I was?”

“Absolutely! I need to train harder and I need to know how to shoot. And I’m going to pack heat! I’m going to get myself a pink shoulder holster and no one is ever going to mess with me again. Ever!”

He smiled. She was so amazingly beautiful right now. “Yeah?”

“Yup.” She nodded sharply. “And today—I’m going to throw you. For real.”

And she did.
