Holy crap, I’m going to die like a gnat, splattered against a windshield.
The thought blazed through Virginia Boca’s mind while a pathetically
unremarkable montage of her life flashed before her eyes. Twenty-eight years
of sucking in the country air of Bluelick, Kentucky was about to come to a
gruesome end thanks to that reckless little shithead, Justin Buchanan, and the
stupid red Mustang his idiot father bought him last year for his sixteenth
birthday. Worse, after running her down in the street like a dog, Justin would
probably walk away with a slap on his wrist, because his idiot father also
happened to be mayor. And without her around to throw her hat into the ring,
Tom Buchanan would win re-election next month without breaking a sweat.

The steel death machine barreled down on her, so close she could see
Justin through the windshield, texting away while speeding along Main
Street. A scream slammed into her frozen vocal cords, but she could no more
free the noise than she could change direction in midair. She’d already passed
the point of no return on the journey from sidewalk to the crosswalk, and now
momentum held her prisoner.
Time slowed and stretched as the Mustang neared. Justin looked up. Their
eyes met. His went wide and filled with the kind of terror that came from
confronting a math problem along the lines of, “How many feet does it take
to stop a two-ton car traveling at sixty miles per hour?” and realizing the
answer was more than he had.
Ginny closed her eyes—not so much because she accepted her fate, but
because she preferred not to be there for it—and braced her body for a brutal
kick-off into the hereafter.
An arm banded around her middle and yanked her backwards so fast she
lost what she’d assumed would be her last breath. Displaced air from the
speeding car buffeted her, but nothing more. She opened her eyes. Despite
the black dots dancing around the perimeter of her vision, she managed to see
the Mustang disappear down Main without a single flash of brake lights.
Shithead.
She might have indulged in a longer, more inventive rant, except the
dancing black dots made her dizzy and a little queasy. She blinked fast, trying
to clear them, but the stubborn things merged together to limit her vision to
twin tunnels while the rest of her body turned as weightless as a helium
balloon. Maybe Justin had hit her after all, and this was what death felt like?
If so, the dark tunnels were even more troubling. Wasn’t there supposed to be
a light to float into? Lord knew she wasn’t a saint. She’d fallen a bit short of
chaste at times, and yes, she gossiped more than she should, but she’d
recently vowed to mend her ways and do something meaningful with her life.
Where the hell was…er, scratch that…where in heaven’s name was her light?
Strong arms kept her tethered in place and a low voice murmured, “You’re
okay.”
