Reckless in Moonlight (2012)
““Please, keep it brief,” the nurse instructed Dana.
She nodded and proceeded at a normal pace. So it was Mila who reached bed nine first, located in a small, glass-fronted room on the perimeter of the nurse’s station.

His affection toward Mila didn’t shock her; his condition did.MoreLess
