I'm off to an early start this week with the final book of my contemporary romance trilogy, called From the Ashes of Love. It's a bit of a tear-jerker romance because of the hard road the couple has taken individually in order to find each other, so be prepared. But it'll be completely worth the journey in the end. Here's what it's all about: Harrison “Lucky” Peterson is burned out from his firefighting job—literally. He was badly burned in the recent BC fires and had to take a break to heal and recover. However, even though he’s getting back on his feet, he can’t escape the nightmares he carries with him from when he was trapped and thought he was going to die. And the nightmares are only getting worse. His old boss and friend recommends he go to a therapy retreat in the small town of Bobbins in Alberta, run at the local inn every year. He decides to give it a try. While there, he meets another attendee—a woman who is also struggling with PTSD from her years overseas as a soldier in Afghanistan. Through their shared trauma, will they make a connection stronger than their pain? The timing of this book seems pretty appropriate, considering that the fires have flared to life again in BC with this heat wave we're having up in Western Canada. Unfortunately, there are many firefighters right now battling the blazes once again and putting their lives at risk. My thoughts go out to them! I'll be back on Sunday to read an excerpt from my new novel. Hope you stay cool during this heat wave!
