After the Story

Can love bloom when trust is fragile? TV journalist Mattie Elliott lives for the rush of a breaking story—until she becomes one.

Scarred by injury and sudden fame, she retreats to England’s south-west coast in search of peace.

Chief inspector Nell Abraham values calm, control, and solitude. The last thing she needs is a headstrong reporter prying into her world or stirring something she thought she’d buried long ago.

But a suspicious fire forces them together, and as attraction deepens, secrets and old wounds resurface.

Can two guarded hearts learn to trust again, or will fear keep the two women from a love that could change everything?
