Ashes of Love

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

Orphaned and scarred by a life of loss and abuse, Helena’s world has been defined by survival — until a forced marriage to the enigmatic, stoic CEO Alexandro Sterling-Cruz turns her carefully controlled life upside down. Misjudged, underestimated, and bound by fear, she struggles to protect her brother and herself from the ghosts of her past. As Alexandro peels back her armor, he discovers the woman behind the silence — brilliant, resilient, and profoundly human. Together, they navigate love, trauma, and the fight for freedom, discovering that safety, trust, and family can be built even from the ashes of heartbreak. In a world where every shadow threatens to consume her, Helena finally learns that choosing love doesn’t mean losing strength — it means finally finding herself.

Author's Note

Some chapters might drop together, others will come one at a time — kinda like waves, not always predictable 🌊✨And if anything ever feels out of order, confusing, or a little messy… that’s on me, and I’m really sorry in advance. I’m doing my best to keep everything clear and flowing the way the story deserves.

I’m trying to stay consistent with uploads so you’re not left hanging too long (because cliffhangers are fun… but not that fun 😭). Life gets chaotic sometimes, but this story means a lot to me, and so do you.

This was my first story and I hope you love it. Also note that some of the characters might go by nicknames, so make sure to go through the character descriptions to see what each character might be called over course of the book 📖📖

Thank you for your patience, your love, and for sticking with these characters through every soft moment, every storm, every heartbreak 🖤I see you. I appreciate you. And I promise I’m showing up for this story as much as I can.

More chapters coming soon… stay with me ✨

yours truly, dee 🌙
