His Liberating Flame

Escaping the Past, Book One

By: Ashley Thompson

Narrated by: Renee Brame

As a popular model, Noble has been anything but what his name implies. He's spent a decade living a lucrative, infamous party lifestyle and dated more than his fair share of affluent women. However, the glamor of stardom has tarnished, and the taste of self-indulgence has soured in his stomach. The drugs and fame cannot appease the growing emptiness gnawing at his soul.

On the brink of imploding, he seeks respite from his cunning agent and intoxicating girlfriend. Noble takes a spontaneous trip to his picturesque hometown, where he’s left behind an estranged relationship with his parents.

There, on a snowy night, he encounters a captivating light in a modest barista, Trisha, who breathes hope into his soul and helps him unravel the gilded cords that once ensnared him tightly. Their fateful rendezvous is the catalyst that ushers him on a redemptive path.

But Noble’s dark past pursues him ardently, and his former addictions begin to weaken his will.

Will the celestial light he experienced withstand the encroaching darkness that threatens to engulf him?
