Part of Series

Everyone has limits, but sometimes they hurt. Loud-mouthed firefighter Chris Black is newly out and should be having the time of his life. But booty calls from his ex-boyfriend and coming home to an empty house have his optimistic spirits low. When he answers Ash’s cry for help, Chris finds his total opposite—and everything he wants. Ash never expected to wake up to a gorgeous stranger fighting to save him. It’s just the start of a long road, and at last, he isn’t walking it alone. Without a safe home to return to, Chris offers Ash his guest room—and more. Ash is drawn to his savior, but he’s not going to be used ever again. It’s the perfect arrangement at first. Ash gets the help he needs to adjust to his new limits, and Chris gets a friendly face at home. But where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Can they clear the air in time, or will their new love fizzle out? Afterglow is the second book in the After series, which explores mental health challenges with gentle humor and heart while hunky firefighters turn up the heat. It can be enjoyed on its own, and promises a happily-ever-after.

E. Davies grew up moving constantly, which taught him what people have in common, the ways relationships are formed, and the dangers of “miscellaneous” boxes. As a young gay author, Ed prefers to tell feel-good stories that are brimming with hope. He writes full-time, goes on long nature walks, tries to fill his passport, drinks piña coladas on the beach, flees from cute guys, coos over fuzzy animals (especially bees), and is liable to tilt his head and click his tongue if you don't use your turn signal. To find out when E. Davies has a new release, you can subscribe to his newsletter at edaviesbooks.com/subscribe, like his Facebook page at facebook.com/edaviesbooks, or visit his website at edaviesbooks.com.
