      “I believe it’s best if we think this over before rushing into anything. You have a long recuperation ahead of you, Jake. And there’s the surgery on your leg.”

      Jake reached for Ali’s hand and drew her closer, making her sit beside him on the bed. A warmth shot through her as her gaze met his bare chest adorned with only strips of white bandage. She glanced lower, fairly certain that he was naked under the sheet that covered his body.

      “What are you afraid of, Ali?” His tone held a hint of sarcasm. “Or are you waiting to see if I’ll be able to walk before you give me an answer.”

      She gasped, then her shock turned to anger. “You have no right to say that to me, Jake Hawkins. I was the one here, by your bedside, trying to bring you back.

      About five minutes later, Margo Wells came into the room. He remembered the nurse as being Ali’s good friend from school.

      “How about a painkiller to help you sleep?” she offered, holding out the small paper cup.

      “No, thanks.” He didn’t want to dull his senses.

      “Okay, but sleep will do you good. If you’re worried about drifting back into a coma, the pills can’t—”

      “I told you, I don’t want any medicine,” he said abruptly. “It’s my pain, I’ll handle it.”
