There were no windows back here. He couldn\u2019t tell where they were, how far up they were. Or whether the pilots had managed to wrestle the plane around to get back to the runway in time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">All of a sudden the loadmaster appeared at the front of the cargo bay, his face grim. \u201cBrace, brace!\u201d he yelled, strapping himself into his own seat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">For a second Nate stared at him in disbelief. Jesus Christ, they were gonna crash?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">His heart pummeled the inside of his ribs as he doubled over, put his head between his knees and clamped his hands behind the back of his neck. There was no time to panic, or pray.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">He thought of Taya and their unborn child. His mind latched onto an image of her smiling up at him on their wedding day. The sun glinted off the tangle of dark curls pinned up on the crown of her head, the spray of flowers tucked there glowing in the late afternoon light. Her gray eyes were luminous as she gazed up at him, and so full of love and trust that for a moment it was hard to breathe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">His stomach lurched as the plane suddenly tipped sideways, dropping faster.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>Please God, I don\u2019t want to die.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">They hit the ground hard with a bone-jolting, sickening metallic crunch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Nate\u2019s chin slammed into his right knee. Blood filled his mouth. The plane bounced upward for a second, enough time for a spurt of hope to burn through the shock.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>Please, please\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">But it was smothered when they smashed into the ground again a heartbeat later. His breath hitched as the aircraft flipped to the left and continued to skid on its side, the terrible scream of tearing metal shrieking in his ears as the wing behind him was ground away.<\/p>\n<p><\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\n<div style=\"width:100%;text-align:center;\"><hr class=\"minidividerCOLOR\" style=\"max-width:NUMBER %\/px\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hostage Rescue Team Series #11 Release Date:\u00a0November 16, 2017 ISBN:\u00a0978-1-928044-24-6 Genre: Romantic Suspense Format: ebook &amp; print Length: Novella (40,000 words) Blurb: Servare Vitas.
