Ignition

by Ember Cole

Under Fire · Book 1

I was just supposed to be the tutor. But when the school caught fire, I didn’t run. I held a terrified little girl in my arms and whispered, “Your daddy’s coming.” He did. Through smoke. Through flames. Logan Reid — the man I left behind ten years ago. The man I never stopped loving. And the girl I saved? His daughter. Now I’m living in his guest room. Reading bedtime stories. Packing lunches. Making the house feel like home again. He tells me it’s temporary. I tell myself I won’t fall. But every night spent wrapped in quiet… Makes leaving feel like its own kind of heartbreak. And when I’m halfway to the airport, his daughter whispers, “Don’t go.” And Logan runs through the terminal like he’s chasing a second chance—because this time, he finally is.
