Alexa could sympathize. For months or more after Bobby’s death she would have loved to block the hurtful, pain-filled memories with a pill. How could she admit to Rafe that she still needed herb teas and mineral soaks to help her sleep most nights? But that was a burden she couldn’t share. “Pills that turn you into a mechanical man aren’t the answer. That kind of pain doesn’t go away so easily, Rafe, it only gets buried deeper.”

“Says you.”

“Says me!”

“Is that why you chose to be an osteopath? Because MDs are too free handing out pills?”

“I became an osteopath because I graduated high school at fifteen and medical schools had age restrictions for entry.”

“You graduated high school at fifteen?” Rafe whistled. “You must be a genius.”
