Backfire
“He’d been trained as a wildland firefighter, but 99 percent of the time, he was fighting fires away from home. He loved his job, but it was hard on his marriage and all he could think about was getting home to Natalie. Climbing into bed to lie on the best mattress in the world next to the best woman in the world. But as he steered his truck home in the early hours of morning, something didn’t feel right. Warning signals pounded in his head.
The smell of smoke filled the air and the fireman in him kicked into gear, stiffened and searched for the source. His phone alerted him to a text at the same moment he heard the blare of fire-truck sirens.
His house came into view, flames shooting out the windows and roof.
Oh, dear God, save her!
David wasn’t sure how he made it into the house, but he hadn’t waited on the trucks. All he could think about was Natalie.
He called her name.
