The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Vivienne was testing whether the chip could integrate with the human body through ionic fusion, eventually solidifying within and migrating with the flow of blood.

She had been wracking her brain for a suitable test subject, even considering the drastic measure of extracting Fiona from a high-security federal penitentiary.

But then Mara walked right into her lap, a perfect volunteer. When Mara had begged Vivienne for treatment, she agreed to any terms set forth. Even the prospect of being a human guinea pig did not deter her.

Vivienne left with a small smile.
