“All I want is a million days with you,” Trinity replied when asked what she most wanted from her new husband, Kit Red Cloud.
The fairytale began when she discovered a small black stone placed on her doorsill, so beginning a cat and mouse game that culminated with a magical evening that neither would forget. Trinity possessed a consuming appetite for success as a nurse and feared her career would be forfeit should she allow a relationship with Kit Red Cloud, heir to Red Cloud Petroleum, who had fallen in love with her at first sight. Because Kit was a Cree Indian, Trinity’s unfortunate choice of words when explaining they lived in different worlds was reason for him to believe she was prejudiced.
A fiery automobile crash put not only Trinity’s career on hold but all her dreams of Kit as well. A year of reconstructive surgeries gave time not only to heal but to understand life without the man she loved was no life at all. Afraid he would find her grotesque, she refused to apologize for fear of being pitied!
At thirty-three Kit Red Cloud had it all; a gorgeous wife, wonderful parents and the powerful position as Chief Operating Officer for Red Cloud Petroleum. His only thorn in the flesh was his cousin Guy whose wife shared a dark history with Kit. Not only his future, but the future of Red Cloud Petroleum hinged on the continued use of fracking: The process of injecting liquid at high pressure into boreholes, etc., to extract oil or gas. Big interests and powerful environmentalists were attempting to convince Canadian citizens that fracking was the “F” word, not only because it required enormous amounts of precious water but was also thought to cause earthquakes. Red Cloud Petroleum’s lifeblood and the future of Canada’s oil and gas industry depended on fracking being allowed, but as fewer drilling permits were issued Kit’s life became enmeshed in the survival of Red Cloud Petroleum, and Trinity became an abandoned woman!
