Salt & Smoke: A love story forged in fire, ash, and the wild Alaskan sky.

Ophelia Crane thought she had it all-a celebrated New York restaurant, a seemingly perfect marriage, and a future built from precision and grit. But when tragedy reduces her life to smoke and silence, she flees to her remote Alaskan cabin, hoping the icy stillness will quiet the storm inside her.
She doesn't expect the wild to break her open. She doesn't expect a town in need of saving. And she definitely doesn't expect Cannon Bradshaw.
A rugged, emotionally wrecked rancher with calloused hands and a guarded heart, Cannon is Alaska personified-rough, raw, and breathtaking. Their chemistry sparks like fire in a snowstorm, but it's the grief beneath their skin that binds them.
Surrounded by sweeping mountains, frozen lakes, and skies that bleed color after dark, Ophelia begins to thaw. In a town that wraps its arms around her-and in a man who holds her without asking for perfection-she finds a flicker of something terrifying and true.
To rise from the ashes, she'll have to stop running.
To love again, she'll have to stay.
Salt & Smoke is a breathtaking, emotionally charged love story about healing in the harshest conditions-and how the wildest places can lead you home.
