Sample text:

The mountains looming on the horizon shadowed the highway speckled beige by the light of overhead lampposts.   They had been Victoria Marie James’ main companions for the past thirteen hours.   The navigational system mounted in her dashboard sang at her with every turn.   The relentless voice pointed out her inability to find the right exit an hour outside of Memphis—her childhood hometown.   One five-minute break at a rest stop for a quick cup of coffee—now, staining her gray jogging pants—was turning into a nightmare.   Automatic updates her ass.   The red and blue lights in her rearview mirror followed by short bursts of a siren were God sent.   She pulled onto the shoulder of 240 West and waited.

The officer dismounted his motorcycle, and approached her.   It was after 2:00 A.M., and she’d exhausted herself turning in circles for the last thirty minutes.   She didn’t know what she was doing.   Memphis, Tennessee was only so big.   The familiar gait of the backlit figure approaching her car knotted her stomach.   Chad Michael Kirkpatrick.   There was no way fate could be so cruel.  

When her window slid down, she stared at the beautiful blond curls peeking from underneath the helmet, highlighting brown eyes.   She remembered a time when he preferred glasses, but thought they might be uncomfortable under his helmet.
