The Book

Beyond the Fireworks

Beyond the Fireworks follows Celine through the year that changes everything: the end of a marriage that asked her to disappear, the beautiful chaos of raising two children, and the unexpected return of someone who reminds her of the woman she used to be.

Telling a story of abuse, healing, and identity with unflinching honesty, the novel never loses sight of hope. At its heart, it is a story about motherhood, friendship, and the quiet courage it takes to choose yourself.
