Ashes of Us - COMING SOON

After heartbreak, she came to the Coast for a fresh start. He was supposed to be a fling-not a forever.

Rae Monroe arrives in the windswept California coastal town of Mendocino, determined to rebuild her life. With her mother gone and her ex's betrayal still raw, she wants nothing more than solitude, to run her cafe, and breathe in the salt air. But one bonfire night on the beach changes everything when she meets Eli Callahan-a rugged, impossibly handsome firefighter who's as steady as the cliffs and as dangerous as the waves.
What begins as a one-night stand turns into something deeper, and soon Rae is falling for Eli's quiet strength and unexpected tenderness. When a love from Eli's past tries to slip in through the cracks, Eli assures Rae she has nothing to worry about.
When Rae is faced with false accusations, scheming, and betrayal, Eli chooses who he trusts, and it isn't Rae.
Rae knows her worth. She walks away without a word, leaving Eli to the ashes of the life they built. Now he's racing against time to uncover the truth and win back the only woman who's ever mattered. But some burns run too deep to heal...

Will Eli prove himself before it's too late-or will Rae's love be gone for good, swept out to sea with the tide?
