Beauty for Ashes

By Amy Amayo

She wanted him. She married him. She couldn't let him touch her.

Grace Montgomery has spent twelve years running from a night she can't remember and a shame she can't shake. When she returns to Willow Creek, she doesn't expect to find Luke Reynolds-a pastor with gentle hands and a patience that undoes her.

He courts her. He loves her. He marries her.

But their wedding night reveals what she's been hiding: she can't be touched. Not even by him. Every kiss, every whisper, every moment of passion ends with her pulling away.

Luke doesn't understand. He wonders if she ever wanted him at all.

Grace wants him. She aches for him. But her body remembers what her mind has tried to forget.

When the truth finally comes out, it will shatter them both-or be the very thing that sets them free.

Beauty for Ashes is a redemptive Christian romance about delayed intimacy, trauma, and a love that survives the unthinkable. For readers who want passion, patience, and the hard-won beauty of healing. For readers of Francine Rivers and Karen Kingsbury.

You are not what happened to you.
