checking her phone and email, wishing someone would make contact.
Antarctica had always been
her dream. Not anymore. Dr. Karen Hancock sat in her cabin staring at her

civilization would end. Karen’s world would shrink to the size of the
scientific station at McMurdo Bay. She kept checking her phone and email, wishing
someone would make contact—someone named Dr. Mike O’Dell, her dentist. After

studied penguins on the ice shelf, would he wait? Suddenly a text message
buzzed. I’ll always love you.
I like happy endings! Now
