Bound By Desire (The Acadian Curse) - Plot & Excerpts
Sarah McIntire wrenched the steering wheel of her father’s Ford hard to the left. The tires skidded across the highway blacktop. That morning’s empty coffee cup flew from its perch on the wide dash and toppled onto the floorboard. Trucks this old didn’t come with cup holders. She barely made the turn. The tires spun loose for a split second on the private dirt drive before catching. She muttered a little prayer of thanks that she had decided at the last moment to take her father’s truck. If she had tried that move in her Prius, she would be at the bottom of the ravine right now. It had been a sentimental decision to take the old Ford. Back when she was a kid, her father had been the town’s only big animal vet, and she had gone with him on just about every call. There was still a worn spot on the passenger side where she’d sat by his side for nearly eighteen years. At first, it had been a matter of practicality. She was too little to stay home alone, and it was just too hard to find a sitter at a moment’s notice.
