Synopsis

When the Smoke Clears is book two in The Fallout Duet and picks up right where When Sparks Fly left off. They say to live like you're dying, but what happens when you come out on the other side? I faced my attacker. I lived. Now I have a new fight. Even as I heal, I'm fighting for my freedom, my mental health, my future. As family secrets continue to be exposed, it's clear I'm not the only one whose safety or future is in jeopardy. How do I reconcile this new version of me with who I used to be? And what will I lose along the way? I finally figured out what I want, but is it too late for my happily ever after?
