So, I’m currently working on the last two chapters of Redeem Me. The first should be ready to post by the end of the week. In the mean time, I thought I’d share this wee one shot. I’ve had it in my head for a really long time and I decided to write it in an attempt to get over a bit of post holiday writer’s block. It’s short, rough, messy and pretty raw, but it’s also very close to my heart so I hope you enjoy!
Shout out to @happytoobserve for encouraging me to write this!
P.S. - It was originally inspired by the song Colder Weather by The Zac Brown Band! Listen to it here.

How long does it take to drive to Alaska from North Carolina? About 72 hours, but that’s only if you drive non-stop. Taking on a road trip of that magnitude probably wouldn’t occur to most people. But to me and my brother, it seemed like the perfect way to celebrate our high school graduation.
That was ten years ago. I’m 28 now. I have a life, a business, responsibilities. And yet I once again find myself making this monster of a journey, driving the full 4,343 miles in Will’s beloved Ford Ranger. And this time, I’m completely alone.
