“She wasn’t the hide-and-weep type. She’d seen things, awful things, while out in the field. People fell off cliffs. Got bitten by snakes. She’d just missed being swallowed by an avalanche years ago, right at the beginning of her career. The kidnapping. None of it compared to the sensation the last few days of being mentally tossed around and plowed under. The upheaval, the confusion—not knowing if her team members were alive or dead—the dragging sense that she got lucky and didn’t deserve it. T...he emotions piled up, weighing her down, crushing her chest until she couldn’t breathe. Seeing Reid walk down that hill both terrified and excited her. She’d tried to move on, date a physicist here and that manic stock analyst there. But it was all noise, and none of it could drown out the doubts rolling through her head. But then she got swept up in a terrifying situation and common sense fled. The will to live, to connect, kicked in. After a lifetime of doing the right thing even while her parents tried to pull her toward a life of art and music—two things she had zero aptitude for—she ignored every warning bell ringing in her head.MoreLessRead More Read Less
