Broken Promises

Cover Broken Promises
Genres: Fiction
Tess cut the power as the plane plunged toward the airstrip. Peering through a windscreen almost completely obscured by oil, she maneuvered into the clearing and touched down, feeling a jolt as the main gear contacted. Holding her breath, she struggled to ease the controls forward, until the nose wheel touched down. Then throwing all her weight onto the pedals, she applied the brakes. The plane shuddered and bounced over the uneven ground while careening toward the wall of trees at the end of t...he runway... skidding to a halt at the edge of the clearing, a breath away from the mammoth trees rising before them.
After the plane dipped to a halt, Tess sat for a moment, staring into the dense growth, wondering what quirk of fate spared them from plummeting into the impenetrable wall of trees.

Zak pulled her to him and held her.
