From the Ashes (The Raven Sons MC Club #3)

Prologue

LANA

One year ago

“Where are we going, Mommy?”

“We’re going to visit Auntie Nancy.”

“But…Daddy?”

“Daddy is…working, love. He won’t be coming this time.” A moment passes before my son says the words that hit harder than any blow Ben ever gave me.

“With Auntie, Mommy’s safe.” I fall silent, tears quietly streaming, knowing I’ve made the right choice. Even a three-year-old understood this better than I did.

“Yes, Noah, Mommy’s safe now.”

And we drive.

We drive until my past disappears in the rearview.

We drive until all I can see is hope ahead of me.
