She carried her coffee to the desk and set it down right where he’d gone down on her the night before. Her cheeks flushed at the memory. It was definitely one she wouldn’t forget. Nothing about him was anything she could forget.

Seeing more emails appear on her phone, she opened an internet browser and logged in to her hospital email account. She scanned them quickly, looking for urgent ones first. The first few were simple answers she could do without pulling up her notes from her own computer—questions about the selection of the trial candidates. The main criteria was a weak immune system. They were looking to help patients whose success rate was in jeopardy.

Other emails contained questions that she’d need some time to figure out. And unfortunately, they were ones that needed addressing soon.

She fought the urge to point out that this was why she didn’t take time off—they had to see their mistake by now. She sighed as several more emails arrived.

She wasn’t sure what Reed’s plans were for the day, but suddenly, she was going to be working through these at Cassie’s. The idea of not getting to spend the entire day with him disappointed her, but she’d see him later at The Drunk Tank.

Shutting down her email, a search engine icon on the bottom of the screen caught her eye. The statewide search and rescue system.

Was that what Reed was looking at the night before?

She bit her lip. It was none of her business. She wasn’t a snoop. She wasn’t that woman—the one who creeped her boyfriend’s computer... Boyfriend? Friend? Sex addiction partner?

Sipping her coffee, she stared at the icon. What had he been looking for on the site? Information about their own mission the other night or a different one? She hit the icon and the screen lit up with a list of rescues and calls from all over Alaska.

Nothing unusual, and this was his job, after all, so why had he minimized the screen and acted secretive?

Then she noticed the search box at the top of the screen. His father’s name was typed into it. George Reynolds.

He was still looking for his father? He still believed the man had gone missing? Was still missing?
