I lost my heart a long time ago to one woman.

The love of my life.

The mother of my children.

I could weather any storm with her by my side.

But I lost sight of that somewhere along the way.

Holding her in my arms as she nearly died tore me to shreds.

I vowed a long time ago that I would never let anything happen to her, and I failed.

And now she was ready to leave.

Not because I didn’t protect her, but because I lost sight of who we were.

That was all about to change.

Because if there was one thing I knew for certain, it was that life just wasn’t worth living without her by my side.





 





I'm a stay at home mom that loves to read. Some of my favorite titles are Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Horatio Hornblower. I started writing when I was trying to come up with suggestions on ways I could help bring in some extra money. I came up with the idea that I could donate plasma because you could earn an extra $500/month. My husband responded with, "No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book." I didn't think I had anything to share on blog that a thousand other mothers hadn't already thought of. I decided to take his challenge seriously and sat down to write my first book, Jack. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed writing. From there, the stories continued to flow and I haven't been able to stop. I hope my readers enjoy my books as much as I enjoy writing them. Between reading, writing, and taking care of three small kids, my days are quite full.

Release Tour for Tell It To The Waves by C.L. Reeder

Title: Tell It To The Waves
Author: C.L. Reeder
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Tropes: Second Chance Romance; She Bakes; Coastal Setting; Small Town; All Grown Up
Release Date: August 4, 2026


I swore I would never return to Driftwood Bay.
But eight years later, the tides have brought me home to salt-worn piers, familiar shorelines, a town that once felt like everything, and to August Cove, the last piece of my past that the undertow won’t release. Where memories will crash against the present and I must decide whether Driftwood Bay is somewhere I can finally let go of… or somewhere I was never meant to leave behind.

She was swept out like a ship to sea, gone without a trace. Or at least that’s how it felt. But now she’s back, all these years later, the woman who broke my heart in ways that never truly healed.
And in Driftwood Bay, the sea always has a way to bring lost things home.






⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Goodreads Review - “The feeling behind this story is beautiful. I felt all the emotions at the same time and I loved every word, every page, and every moment of this book.”






C.L. Reeder lives in Texas with her childhood sweetheart, their two grown-ish kids, and an unsettling number of animals. Crimson Fate was her debut novel—and the first offering in what she hopes will be a long line of dark tales.

When she isn’t writing, she’s wandering thrift stores, yard sales, and coffee shops, drawn to the forgotten and the strange. A lover of all things witchy and a collector of dead things, she finds beauty where others might look away.

When not working, she can usually be found at home with her husband, searching endlessly for something to watch… or for the vape that’s vanished yet again.
