Rise of Fire
Page 22
Fowler lowered his head and kissed me, slow and lingering. “Would that day happen to be our wedding day, Your Majesty?”
“It would.” I smiled against his lips, relishing his mouth on mine, his gaze warm and tender on my face.
This must be what sunlight felt like.
The light had not yet returned to the world, but someday it would. Until then, this was the closest I could get, and it was enough.
As far as I was concerned, the darkness had passed. And I lived in light.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Photo by Country Park Portraits
SOPHIE JORDAN grew up on a pecan farm in the Texas hill country, where she wove fantasies of dragons, warriors, and princesses. A former high school English teacher, she’s also the New York Times bestselling author of Avon historical romances and the Firelight series. She now lives in Houston with her family. When she’s not writing, she spends her time overloading on caffeine (lattes and Diet cherry Coke preferred), talking plotlines with anyone who will listen (including her kids), and cramming her DVR with true-crime and reality-TV shows. You can visit her online at www.sophiejordan.net.
