Another Tasty Morsel To Get Your Teeth Into – Lost in Laramie.

Here is another snippet from Lost in Laramie, a stand alone story in the Yours Truly, the Lovelorn series.

SNIPPET:

“I’m all right thank you. I just need to rest for a while.” How can I speak like this, Katie wondered when her heart had been ripped to threads? She had been duped. There would be no marriage, the Sawyers had taken her under their wing, not to help her out, but for her to assist them with their elaborate plot to get Peter out of prison.

All the strange things about their friendship and Jake’s love had been a pretense. None of it was true. She had merely been a pawn in their evil game.

She couldn’t cry, the pain went too deep. Her insides felt raw and bleeding. She had participated in a prison break out and if anyone ever discovered what she had done, she would be in serious trouble with the law.

Suddenly she remembered the young man who had disappeared from the stage depot. He had a watch the same as the one she had seen Jake with. He must have stolen it. Where was the young man now? Had Jake done something to him? She was struggling to breathe. At best Jake had bashed and robbed him, at worse murdered him.

This was a nightmare. It had to be. Pinching her leg hard she yelped with pain. It was no nightmare. It was real. She had been duped. Betrayed by people she had grown to love. They had played on her vulnerability, her innocence and desperation to leave the intolerable situation with her parents.
