His Last Kiss: 2

Previously published as Finding Jo, by Warmath, J. A. (AUTHOR).The world knows who I became. No one knows what it cost me to survive losing Ember. I had my future mapped out. I was raised to run an oil empire. I wanted to build a family with her. Then she disappeared and I adapted. Football gave me the discipline I needed. The violence I craved. And somewhere to put the anger. The world called it success. But all I saw was failure. I tried to forget her even as I searched for her-dreamed of her. I loved and hated her in the same breath. Then I heard her voice on a morning show. She was talking about a love story. Ours. Using a first name I didn't know and a last name I knew all too well. Mine. I'd spent years searching for her., only to discover she'd been living right under my nose the entire time. But being close enough to find her wasn't the same as knowing how to reach her. Jo has a career, friends, and a life she built without me. She also carries scars I've never seen and answers questions about the past as though the truth might cost her everything. I had so many theories about why she left. None of them prepared me for the truth. I still want the future we planned. But loving her means listening to what she wants now-even when every instinct I have tells me to take over and keep her safe. Especially when the past comes back for her. Her name was Ember. She's afraid she'll burn my world down. I'll let her-if the flames forge us into something stronger. His Last Kiss is Book Two and the conclusion of the duet.
