“…Of the Ashes, hope atones.” – Rebeccah Summerlin

OF THE ASHES

Micah Mitchell has worked most of his life for one goal — to build a career as a successful guitarist. Just when his dream comes true, an accident shatters his wrist, ending his ability to play. Lost and heartbroken, he fills his time with new projects, including decorating his empty house.

Recently fired from her position at an upscale design firm, Sandra Martin is unable to say no when Micah offers her a job. Despite her reservations, she soon learns she can do more for him than select paint and furniture. With the help of his friends, she guides him to reinvent the way he sees himself and find acceptance in his loss.

But when he wants to include her in his new life, will her own heartbreak keep her from finding happiness with him?

OF THE ASHES, the first novel in the Molly’s Tears contemporary romance series, knits complex, realistic characters into a modern plot. Focusing on imperfect people, it explores the importance of friendship and family, of struggle and loss, and of how others can teach us to live through trying times, to become better people, and to rise out of the fire, rebuilt from the ashes.
