The Deeper He Hurts (2016)
“Sawyer finally took a full breath, tension flowing from his shoulders and pooling at the base of his spine. The jagged rock edges and sunburnt vista welcomed him like a good friend.

The sun hung low in the sky on its path to the western horizon, elongating the shadows and setting the cliffs ablaze. Damn he’d missed this. The open space and blinding blue skies. The endless views that proclaimed exactly how small he was in the world and how stunning nature could be.
He ran a ha...nd through his hair and reached for his coffee that’d turned cold over two hours ago. He’d made the drive from Portland in a straight shot, with just one three-hour nap in a truck stop outside of Twin Falls, Idaho.
