High Pressure System: Part One
Page 4
Brandon shook his head. “I haven’t let on that I know anything about his family. But I couldn’t find them on any lists. They might not have survived the beginning of the coastal storms. The information I have is limited. The record keeping on that side of the country went into blackout days before we did.”
When I finally looked at him, his eyes were glassy and he pulled me to my feet as he stood up. “Screw computers.” Brandon pulled me into his chest and hugged me tight, his hand tangled in my hair as he held me close. He gave me a little peace with what he shared about my family. I was so sad for Jim. I couldn’t help it. I cried on his shoulder. I was reluctant to let go. Being in Brandon’s arms was far better than being alone.

Thank You
Thank you for reading. I hope you enjoyed this as much as I enjoyed writing it. I could just do without the nightmares that inspire scenes for this series.
One of the best ways to show an author you enjoyed their work is to leave a review. It might just keep me motivated to keep writing episodes to this series. I am motivated, but it might push me to get it out there sooner if you can’t wait to read more.

About the Author
K.D. Kinney is a mother of five daughters. Surrounded by far too much estrogen, shoes, and ponytail holders, they are the inspiration for many of her characters when writing for Young Adults. K.D. Kinney lives in the heart of Boise, Idaho and spends her days writing with her Chiweenies, Dobby and Yoda, sleeping at her feet. That is when they aren’t chasing squirrels or barking at every thump in the house.

Dedication
High Pressure System started as a short story. I realized that it had the potential to be so much more and I expanded it. A nightmare inspired this story and now I’m excited to see where this tale takes us. Only the beginning of a serial, I hope you enjoy it and come back for more.
I would like to dedicate this story to my ever patient family. As I’ve pursued my writing, they have been so supportive.
My husband has always believed in me far more than I have believed in myself, and without his support I would have probably not pursued my writing as persistently as I have over the past few years.
My five daughters are an endless source of inspiration. It is wonderful that my teen daughters have such strength and have been their own “boss” and will pursue the things that they know are right for them. I love to write characters of that same caliber.
To my writer friends Vonny, Paul, Rosalie, Wednesday, Dorothy, Angela, and all the others that have provided me with priceless feedback that helped me find my writer voice that had been dormant for nearly twenty years. I wouldn’t be writing at this level if I never had the courage to put my work out there.
There is much more to come…
