The USA Today bestselling author celebrates wide national rerelease of her wildly-popular 2018 novel
— Sarah Eden
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH, UNITED STATES, September 3, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Sarah Eden’s beloved romance, “Ashes on the Moor,” is back in bookstores. Thanks to Shadow Mountain Publishing’s hit-making Proper Romance imprint, the fan favorite novel is available for the first time as a hardcover collector’s edition.
Eden and Shadow Mountain are particularly excited to announce that the exclusive new edition includes a never-before-published chapter in the romance of two of the genre’s most endearing characters—Evangeline Blake and Dermot McCormick.
“Ashes on the Moor” tells the tale of an impoverished schoolteacher, Evangeline, who’s sent far from home to learn independence and become self-reliant for the first time in her life. If she can impress her grandfather and prove herself, she’ll secure an inheritance she desperately needs and return to her home, a comfortable life, and the sister she so dearly misses.
As Evangeline struggles to settle into Smeatley, her hardscrabble new town, she meets Dermot, an Irish brick mason. Her intriguing new friend is also a world away from home and feels just as out of place. In time, despite some potentially deal-breaking differences, their friendship grows into something surprisingly special.
Just when Evangeline begins to feel as if she’s found a new family among the town’s residents, she discovers something unsettling. It turns out that in Smeatley, secrets are hard to keep.
As her past bursts into the present, Evangeline must choose between the opportunity to return to the safety of her home, or embrace the new life she’s worked so hard to create for herself. It’s a painful choice, because leaving Smeatley means more than leaving students and a community she’s learned to love, but saying goodbye to a man she loves even more.
“I am so delighted to celebrate ‘Ashes on the Moor’ today!” Eden said from her Utah home. “This story honors the love of teachers and the impact they have, which makes it perfect for this time of year. Having had the opportunity to travel to western Yorkshire to undertake research for this book, having this gorgeous new hardcover version of it brings back so many lovely memories.”
Eden added that returning to the story was an unexpected thrill. “It’s been such a rare opportunity to revisit a previously published novel and craft new material,” Eden said. “Writing the new epilogue and checking back in with these beloved characters a year after the novel ends was such an amazing experience for me as an author. I think readers will love this collector’s edition and its heartwarming story of love and resilience.”
“Ashes on the Moor: Collector’s Edition” is now available online in all formats and at your favorite brick and mortar bookstore.
