When it is determined that Edward cannot be moved for several weeks, while his leg, broken in the accident, is healing, you will be interested to see how both Leorah and Edward's mindsets change when they are forced to spend time together.  Will they change enough to embrace a new way of thinking?  You will interested to discover where Leorah and Edward end up by the final page of this tale!
