Hell!

His sons needed him, too, and to be frank, so did she.

Elizabeth had lost her father, and in the gap, Wyler had become that role for her.

She’d latched on, and he wasn’t her father-in-law, but instead, now, her surrogate father.

Saying goodbye to him would be so damn hard—even more difficult than saying goodbye to Timothy.

Chrissy was a powerhouse, and she was irreplaceable, and Elizabeth knew it.

What the hell was she going to do now?

While she was out here, she was going to have to take cases, and without a tech to drive the lab bus, it was likely going off a cliff.
