Phoenix /fēniks/: (in classical mythology) a unique bird inhabiting the Arabian Desert that burned itself on a funeral pyre before rising from the ashes with renewed youth to live through another cycle.

HENDY
Despite my efforts to save them, my team is killed before my very eyes, and I’m captured and subjected to merciless torture—losing virtually every piece of my identity but my pulse.
After my rescue, I’m saddled with facing the daunting task of healing my physical scars as well as the invisible ones—my emotional demons.

DR. PRESLEY COLE
I’ve always marched to my own drum and have never been one to shy away from a challenge. Embarking on a new journey—one that could impact my own life—I make it my mission to prove to Hendy that his life isn’t over; that he’s worthy of love.
Because sometimes even a phoenix needs help to rise…out of the ashes.

**Out of the Ashes is a full-length, standalone which does not need to be read in conjunction with any other book.**
