Time Out of Mind ,Cora's Bond #3

This is part 3 of a serial, you must read them in order.

Cora is trying to come to terms with the death of her friend.  While planning her wedding to Dorian, and finishing school, she is still doing research in Dorian's lab.
Dorian is holding a woman hostage to get her husband to give himself up. Cora feels sorry for the woman and tries to persuade her that her husband will come for her.

I'm afraid I am getting a little bored with this serial. Just reading bits of a story is not for me.
