Ashes to New Paperback

Be Warned!
While the books in the Angel Fire Rock Romance series can be read as standalone novels, Ashes to New is not a HEA. It's not a romance. It's a tale of darkness and survival.

What people are saying:
"Mind-blowing! Brilliant! Heart-wrenching! Intense!...A brilliantly beautiful book that will stun, horrify, bring you to tears, experience a feeling of helplessness, and yet have hope that things will improve for them."

"Just Wow...Beyond brilliant. I couldn't put it down...Love can conquer the worst kind of evils."


Ashes to New is a story about the fiercest kind of love. It's about enduring. Surviving. And never giving up. Elsbeth and Forest are two teenagers trapped within an abusive foster home. They endure tragedy, but find there is light in the darkest places. With hope is as limitless as the summer sky, all they need is the love of one another to survive.

"You're beautifully broken. My summer sky. My light in the darkness."


Elsbeth and Forrest are seventeen-year-old foster children. They met at the age of twelve when they were given into the care of a deranged monster who hides behind the mask of a well respected, philanthropic lawyer.

Trained in total submission, they face unspeakable abuse and cling to one another as their only source of hope. As if things aren't bad enough, their foster father has several friends who avail themselves of the children as well.

Through it all, Elsbeth clings to a single ray of hope; at eighteen, both she and Forest will no longer be in the foster care system and will be free of their foster father and his vile friends. Keeping hope alive, they struggle to survive and free themselves from degradation and abuse; that is, until "Master John" comes to visit....
