Trust Me
by Nora LeDuc
Ela Danforth seeks sanctuary in the small town of Rockypoint, New Hampshire, where she believes her days will return to normal, until a mysterious stalker threatens her refuge, just as a charming lawyer, Nash McCain, enters her life.
Excerpt:
Lanie tugged on his sleeve. “Dad. Dad. Look at those cars!”
She pointed behind her. Her fingers tightened with urgency on his arm. Four advancing headlights side by side sped up the hill.
“They’re headed for Dead Man’s Curve. They’re going too fast and going to crash.”
“I’ve gotta go, Mother.” Nash dropped the phone in the cup holder.
The two vehicles flew towards them, neck and neck on the two-way road. Micro inches separated them. They shot past Nash. Their red rear lights burned through the dark, slashing rain. He narrowed his eyes and distinguished the shape of a pickup’s bed on one vehicle, now attempting to pass the other.
Sure enough, it smacked against the driver’s side of what looked like an early sixties car. The screech of metal against metal broke through the rain pounding on his sports car’s roof. The vintage car swerved onto the shoulder, and for a split second, it balanced on the edge of the winding pavement before it plummeted over the side of the nine-hundred-foot drop.
With a shot of backfire, the white truck roared off.
“Dad! Can you believe that? He drove someone off the road and left! What’s going to happen?
Are they dead?”
Lanie’s hoarse whisper broke the silence. She unsnapped her seatbelt and bent forward to wipe the fog off the window with the cuff of her aqua fleece jacket and stared after the pinpoint of crimson taillight disappearing around the peak’s curve.
“We’ll get the driver help.”
My View:
Ela is one of the strongest characters I have connected with in a while. I found myself reading this book quickly, just trying to figure out the mystery behind the “accident” of Dead Man’s Curve. You become near obsessed with the mystery, but just as obsessed with the small romance that weaves itself into the story.
Nora has a great way of drawing the reader into a story and keeping them until the very end, to the point that you will want to read more novels. Nora also creates unique and realistic characters that you will connect with on an emotional level.

Hi Nora,
Love the excerpt – am not feeling hopeful for the driver of the vintage car – lol. Can’t wait to read Trust Me – fab cover too.
