After a serious crash during testing, sports car driver Alan accompanies his injured teammate, Nathan, to the hospital, promising his boss he’ll stay until Nathan’s next of kin can be reached.
Former F1 test driver Nathan was a recent addition to the team, and he and Alan were not on the best of terms. Waiting for Nathan to regain consciousness gives Alan time to think back over the recent races and the ups and downs of their relationship.
Even when Nathan wakes up, Alan remains by his side at the hospital. Nathan is still keeping secrets and needs help more than he's willing to admit. If they can trust each other, it might open the door to an attraction both assumed was one-sided.
A story from the Dreamspinner Press 2014 Daily Dose package "Mended".
Race car driving is a pretty dangerous sport, and that's putting it mildly. It's also something I'm not very familiar with so some of the references in MA Ford's 'The Way Things Turn Out' went over my head, but process of deduction allowed me to understand what was meant.
Alan is a UK race car driver. He's not famous, he's what you call a paying driver, meaning even and steady wins without a lot of fanfare. It's the one thing he's always wanted to do his entire life and he loves what he does. Nathan is a former Formula 1 race car driver who has been hired to race with Alan's team. From day one they've sniped at each other, Nathan being arrogant and Alan teasing unmercifully. Until the day during testing when Nathan's car hits the wall and Alan is at the hospital waiting by his bedside, realizing he feels more for Nathan than he thought.
Once these two strong men can open up to one another, it's no holds barred when they let their passion race. Pun totally intended. A very good short story and a lovely romance. Thank you, MA.
