Andrew Reid had his life figured out. He had a beautiful fiance, a duty that gave him a sense of purpose and a plan- serve his country for four years and then marry his high school sweetheart and live happily ever after. Sadie Anne Pierce had everything her heart desired, the love of Clayton West. She had to sacrifice her life of privilege to be with him, but that didn't matter because he was the only thing she needed. This is the story of two people who thought they had it all. This is the story of two people who lost it all. When Drew's dream of happily ever after died, so did the boy that he was. He threw himself into being the best Marine he could be, and as one half of a scout sniper pair, Ace was born. Following their eight years in the Marines, he and his best friend Spade joined two others to form the band Ashes and Embers. After a year of playing every bar and club in Boston, and traveling all over the east coast to get their music out there, earning reputations as notorious players along the way, they finally got the break of a lifetime. When near tragedy struck and brought all of the band members home to Boston, Ace met Sadie. Their shared pain and grief for Jaxyn brought them together, but it wasn't enough for Sadie to give the playboy rockstar, whose name she'd been hearing for months, a chance, so she denied the attraction and fought the pull she felt toward him. Ace knows all about fighting for what he believes in though, and he believes in Sadie. He's not afraid of a challenge and he doesn't give up. Ever. Even if it means chasing after a stubborn red head determined to run from him. Can two people who lost so much, find more than they ever hoped to dream for again?
