Ash by Sophie Sparks

“Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eye…”

ASH:
Having seen things no man should ever see, I never really believed in true love or the one. But all that changed the day I first laid eyes on Emily Swinton.
Her long blonde hair, hypnotic green eyes and hourglass figure light a fire deep inside me. And I know she feels it too.
The path ahead is clear and paved with bliss… until the day when everything changes.
I’ve fought for my country in Afghanistan. I’ve saved countless lives as a firefighter.
But now, trapped inside this storm, all I can do is love her and try my best to fix this mess.
If she’ll let me…

EMILY:
Knowing me well enough to know I would never do it myself, my best friend Melissa literally forces me to speak to the ridiculously hot firefighter. I really didn’t think he would be interested in me, but within an hour on Parfield funfair, Ash Oswald fixes a part of me I didn’t even know was missing.
Things couldn’t have been going better. Until that day…
From the moment I smell smoke inside our office block, my whole world falls dark.
I know he wants to be there for me. I know he loves me. And I know he believes what he says.
But I don’t want to hold him back. He deserves to be happy.
Even if that means pushing him away and setting him free…
