About The Fire Inside Us
It’s been ten years since high school sweethearts Alexa Tate and Ben Harris have seen or spoken to each other. Ten years since a serious accident changed the course of both their lives. TV journalist Alexa thinks time has healed all her wounds, until an assignment to cover a destructive wildfire sends her back to her hometown where she inevitably crosses paths with Ben, now a sheriff’s deputy. In his presence, old questions surface and new emotions burn within her heart. When the fire inquiry reveals an additional crime, Alexa follows the story, which also means following Ben as he investigates. In the process, she delves into their past and discovers that while it may be too late for love, it’s never too late for the truth.Inspiration for The Fire Inside Us
In The Fire Inside Us, Alexa Tate and Ben Harris uncover a mystery, examine their previous relationship, and grapple with a decade-old tragedy. The story is set in the Texas Panhandle, where I lived for many years. There, I experienced the devastating wildfire season of 2006 which burned over a million acres of grassland, killed thousands of cattle, and took twelve human lives. The circumstances of this disaster never left me, and eventually, it became the backdrop for the emotional disaster of these characters’ lives. The fire rages not only across the prairie but inside each of them as well. I’ve never been able to limit myself to one genre. In this book, readers can have a little mystery with their romance and a little romance with their mystery.Texas True Love Series
