Luke leaned in. “Look me in the eye right now and tell me it’s impossible. Tell me I don’t stand a chance.”
It was just like Luke to find the one inch of plausibility and stretch it into a mile. It was highly unlikely that he’d make a full, flawless recovery—it was foolish beyond reason to bring the media into it—but she couldn’t sit there and tell him it was impossible, much as she wanted to.
“You stand a very small chance. Minute.”
He leaned back, victorious. “Itty-bitty’s all I need. You know that.”
“But if you push yourself too hard and too fast then you stand a much larger chance of doing yourself serious harm. The you-won’t-get-up-and-walk-away-from-it kind of harm. Luke, I don’t see why you have to do this. And with press watching. It’s not worth the risk.”
“Maybe not to you.”
Ruby scrambled for a way to talk him out of this before his agent came and turned it into a hopeless two-against-one. “Explain it to me, then. Make me understand why it’s worth it to you to risk the rest of your life to get a spread on eight pages of a magazine.”
“Ten,” Luke corrected. And she wasn’t really surprised when he added, “Plus the cover.”
