Two
bitter racing rivals have fought since their teenage years to beat
each other to the championship title. When they are both caught up in
a serious accident, however, their plans and conflicts fall apart.
Thrown together to make sense of what happened, the aftermath forces
them to wonder what they are actually fighting for.
“The sofa pulls out into a bed—I—I mean—you could sit with
your leg up on it so you are comfortable,” said Javier.
“Oh,
okay.” Glen nodded.
They
arranged the sofa into a bed and switched the television on. Glen
wondered what the other rooms were like. One door obviously led to
the kitchen because it was half open and he could see the oven, the
others must be the bathroom and bedroom. Would Javier sleep like a
king in a vast four poster bed with curtains? How would he sleep?
Curled up? On his front? On his back? Glen sniggered. Javier
lying on his back. Now there’s a thought. I must stop fantasising.
“Why
do you laugh?”
“Oh—er—no
reason.”
“What
would you like to drink and eat? I have my family’s own wine.”
“You
make wine?”
Javier
drew himself up and puffed out his chest. “Si! For centuries
now, the Diaz family has been important players in the wine business.
My father, and his father before him, and his father—we have all
been connoisseurs of wine and producers of our own finest vintage,
House of Diaz. When I give up racing—”
“Give
up racing?” Glen’s stomach dropped. “So you decided to give up
after all? After all we talked about the accident not being your
fault?”
“No—listen—I
meant after I win the championship, I can give up and continue my
wine making.”
“But—but—who
would I race against?”
Catherine
L Byrne writes stories about relationships which push buttons and
provoke reactions from readers. She writes about both gay and
straight relationships, depending on which characters in her books
shout the loudest to have their stories told.
An
inquisitive author, she prefers writing about different situations in
each book rather than writing a series about the same one—her
stories range from 10th century Viking Britain, to modern educational
settings and from mystery to romance.
As
she was born and bred in England and lives there with her family,
this infuses her books with a distinctly English tone. She has been
writing since as long as she can remember and Extasy Books have
published her novels since 2014.
