After the Fire

A heartfelt second-chance romance novella about love, grief, and choosing yourself
(The Willowtide Series - Book Two)

Sienna Cole returned to the man she once loved, believing the worst of the hurt was behind her. A love once buried resurfaced, replacing the regret she'd carried for years with a new hope for their future.

But rebuilding something fragile takes more than history and hope.

As life settles back into its rhythm, cracks begin to form, shaped by grief, distance, and the unspoken weight both Sienna and Jake carry beneath the surface.

Loving him feels familiar.
Comforting.
And quietly complicated.

When tragedy strikes, Sienna is forced to confront not only her past, but the patterns she's relied on for years. She begins to question not just what she wants, but what she's willing to sacrifice to keep holding on.

After the Fire is a deeply emotional continuation of the Willowtide story, exploring love after the reunion, the cost of waiting, and the quiet courage it takes to listen when something no longer fits the life you're trying to build.

Perfect for readers who love character-driven women's fiction with a romantic heart, quiet heartbreak, and endings that feel true.
