Out of Smoke and Ashes: Book 3 (Paperback)
She changed everything—but fears she’s not enough to hold on to it. Sarah Mortensen dared to rewrite her life. She defied a future she didn’t choose, rescued her sister from the same fate, and found shelter in the Scottish Highlands. But even surrounded by kindness, doubts creep in. She sees the whispers, the looks, the woman from Keir’s past who still lingers. And Sarah begins to wonder if courage alone is enough to earn the kind of love she dreams of.
He sees her strength—even when she doubts it herself. To Keir Mackinnear, Sarah is more than the woman who defied a broken system—she’s the heart that pulled him back when he was ready to leave. His clan welcomes her warmly, but not everyone is ready to let go of old expectations. One friend, in particular, doesn’t plan to step aside quietly. Yet Keir never promised his heart to anyone else—and he won’t start now.
Their path isn’t simple—but love rarely is. Between fragile trust and old loyalties, Sarah and Keir must find a way to stand steady in their love. It may not look like the fairy tales she grew up reading—but it feels real. And maybe that’s all that matters. Because some love stories are built not from perfection, but from persistence, and the courage to choose each other again and again.
Even when the past reaches out. Even when doubt sneaks in. Even when the world tells you you’re not enough—love quietly says you are.
If healing feels messy, love feels daunting, and hope feels distant—this book might be the balm you didn’t know you needed.
Some stories can be told in one book. Others cannot. This is one of those stories. For your full enjoyment we recommend to start with book one, FLAMES OF WINTER.
