I caught Emily staring at the sparkly new diamond ring on her left hand. Probably another one of the reasons she smiled so much lately. I’d popped the question. She’d said yes.
The doorbell rang and Jack walked over to answer the front door. His sister Madison stood on the stoop, tears streaming down her face, and stepped into Jack’s embrace.
“Hey, hey, what’s wrong Maddie?” Jack asked.
Madison mumbled something unintelligible against his chest. She stepped back and handed Jack an envelope. Maverick pushed away from the counter and made his way into the living room. Emily snagged Katie from my lap and I joined them.
Madison was beside herself, but when she looked up and locked eyes with Maverick, the sparks between them nearly ignited the fucking carpet.
Jack opened the letter and read it aloud.
“It’s been almost twenty years, princess. One more week and I’ll be out for good behavior. You’re all grown up now, and I can’t wait to see what a beautiful woman you’ve turned into. I know you haven’t stopped thinking about me since that day I picked you up from third grade and took you home with me. You do remember me, don’t you princess?”
The End

If you enjoy a short, sweet romance that sizzles between the sheets, then I know you will enjoy Firemen Love Curves!
It’s a three-book bundle that includes:
Fire Down Below (Firemen Love Curves Book 1)
Meet Justin Reynolds.
Fire Chief. Six foot three, coal hair, sapphire eyes, and a smile that could stop traffic and send old ladies into cardiac arrest.
Meet Annie Williams.
Elementary school teacher. Curves for days, a razor-sharp wit, and a penchant for getting stuck in trees.
An arsonist, out for vengeance threatens the safety of the small town Annie and Ryan call home. Will Ryan lose the one great love of his life to a lowlife with a Molotov cocktail? Or will their love survive the flames?
Slow Burn (Firemen Love Curves Book 2)
Jenny Russo almost lost her life the night her childhood house went up in flames. After a dozen years away, she's back in town to face the memories that still haunt her.
Nathan Frost still remembers the young girl he pulled from the flames all those years ago. When he finds her standing in the ruins of the house she once lived in, he realizes little Jenny Russo is all grown up, and she has curves any man would die to possess.
Their attraction is undeniable. And hot enough to set the sheets on fire. Only trouble is, Jenny will never date a firefighter. The danger to life and limb is just too great for her to chance the heartbreak. Will Nathan convince her that a love like theirs is worth risking it all?
Firestorm (Firemen Love Curves Book 3)
Nick Storm is a firefighter who'd been burned and he has the scars to prove it. The ones inflicted by fire and the ones he sustained when his fiancee couldn't handle what the flames had done to him.
Molly Moore has been on her own since she turned nineteen. When her absentee father kicks her out of the only home she's ever known, she has nowhere to go. Except into the arms of a gorgeous firefighter.
Can their instant attraction weather the storm?
