A wave of heat surged through her. Sarah felt giddy with excitement. Her brother, Mark, had anticipated inheriting the family's collection of classic cars, the gleaming beauties that filled their father's garage. He would get his way for once. She had always gotten the books. But she had been gifted something even more incredible.

"This is priceless," she whispered.
