The Heavy Snow Covers Everything

Summary

It was New Year’s Eve. I’d just dropped off my last ride when a G-Wagon rear-ended me. The driver was Serena Croft, a ghost from my past.

She stormed over, her impatience shifting to disbelief as she looked at me. “Ethan Vance… are you a man or a ghost?” she whispered.

I slid my driver’s license forward. “You have the wrong person, ma’am.”

Her eyes sharpened. “Don’t play dumb. I’d know you if you were ash.” Though her voice was harsh, her eyes shone.

I felt a bitter twist of old pain, but before I could speak, Julian Thorne appeared behind her.
