OK.  I'll have to admit, the nurse in me had a really hard time with the mystery virus.  This virus can't be identified yet they know it's not transmitted person- to- person (how?), they still draw blood samples ( why?), the treat it with...?  I had to just stop and tell myself that this is fiction.  If they were going to satisfy my need for medical realism, I may as well read a textbook.  After I got beyond this, however, I enjoyed it for what it was: a romance novel that had a few plot holes (emancipated minor, really? just because her dad died? it's usually so much harder...)  but kept me reading.  I like Noel Adams' writing so I was able to overlook them for the most part, ( even while wishing MY teenagers could have been as mature as Emily...), and I got sucked into rooting for her survival as much as anyone! There were a few errors that should have been picked up by editing, as well.  I read all 6 segments in succession and feel they really should just have made it one book.  No more memorable than any of it's genre, but a nice quick read.
