too close. A mother with a child with a brain tumor wasn’t every man’s dream woman, she mused dryly, rounding the car and climbing in behind the wheel.

      Alex Bennett ordered himself to start thinking about finding someone else to play the part of his fiancée. Instead, Nina and Tommy Lindstrom’s faces haunted him. The mother had looked desperate. The child was clearly scared.

      He had his own problems! he reminded himself. His grandfather was on the brink of death and expecting him to produce a wife-to-be.

      The frown on his face deepened. Approaching the desk, he asked the nurse to page Dr. Genkins.
