Aftermath

I don’t even want to like him.

Santa Barbara fire chief Jace Williams’ perfectly organized life fell apart: he’s newly-divorced, suspended from work, and haunted by memories. Where did he go so wrong? And why on earth would anyone trust him to put together their wedding?

Hang-gliding instructor Charlie Bryan hides it with a smile, but he’s haunted by his past. He’s trapped living in the shadows of the past, even though he’s never let a guy tie him down since. The last thing he expects is to be thrown into the orbit of his total opposite.

The hot clash between messy Charlie and neat Jace gives way to a fast-growing flame. This is like nothing they’ve ever felt before, but they’re both hesitant to trust it. Can this wildfire love really survive the gathering storm?

Aftermath is the third book in the After series, where hunky firefighters turn up the heat, and mental health challenges can be explored with gentle humor and heart. This story can be enjoyed on its own, and promises a happily-ever-after ending.

What readers said:

“As with other books in this series, E. Davies discussed a serious and emotional topic – actually, a couple different ones, counting Charlie's dad – with dignity and grace. This author has a natural way of making the reader feel and understand the emotions and experiences of the characters.” -Amazon reviewer

“They are both flawed, redeemable, and have some work to do, yet they complement each other so well, they are like a perfect fit of two puzzle pieces that are too stubborn to go anywhere else.” -Amazon reviewer

“The instant dislike and eventual attraction was wonderful. The heat and the intensity of the relationship was absolutely consuming. Their fears, their insecurities and their ultimate healing with one another made the story delightful.” -Amazon reviewer
