Excerpt:
“This what-ever-just-happened-between-us can go no further,” said Nicole.
“Why?” Richard tried to read her face. “Nicole, is there someone else? You already have someone special in your life?”
Nicole thought this was a bad conversation to be having while driving down the mountain at night in the dark on unfamiliar, winding roads in a rental car without her driving glasses.
Richard shook his head and groaned. He mistook her silence for agreement.
“There is someone else. Well, I should’ve known. You are… fabulous. Some lucky man surely would have snapped you up. Let me think, you aren’t married. You aren’t engaged. So…he really screwed up. Call him up and tell him he now has competition. I’ll fight for you, Nicole. And I’ll do anything to make you mine. His luck just ran out. I’m young, I’m strong, and I am in love with you. I loved you before you ever said one word to me. I knew it when I saw you in the coffee shop. I knew it when you looked up at me and smiled. It was as if you said to me, ‘Here I am, Richard.

"You’re an alien? Oh, hell, I can live with that. I’m a science fiction geek.
"You’re on the run? My family will hide you at our home in rural Ireland. No one will ever find you there. Nicole, please, just tell me. And together, we’ll deal with it, whatever it is.”
The rest of the ride back to her hotel was silent. Nicole never took her eyes off the road. The dark isolated roads seemed endless. Finally, the neon blue motel wagon wheel came into sight. When they got out of the car, Nicole was shivering. Richard took off his jacket and gently wrapped her in it.
“Come in. We need to talk.” She led the way.
She brought out a bottle of wine and two glasses, opened, and poured. She handed him a glass. “Drink.”
This must be how Americans prelude bad news, Richard thought.
He half-wished it were poison. He suddenly didn’t want to hear what she had to say.
Nicole drank hers, straightened up, and nervously smoothed her skirt.
“I’m...
