Ashes in the Wind

Narrated by: Joseff McKenneth Goodwin

Ashes in the Wind is an emotionally gripping and thought-provoking story of love, loss, and unexpected connections. Andre Watts, a trauma-informed therapist and proud advocate for Black queer mental health, is thrust into a virtual therapy relationship with Sam Andersen, a blue-collar Midwesterner struggling to cope with his brother’s untimely death. What begins as a professional dynamic evolves into a journey that challenges both men to confront their deepest vulnerabilities, buried truths, and the lines they never thought they’d cross.

This interracial queer love story is more than just a romance—it’s an exploration of human connection in the face of societal expectations, cultural divides, and personal grief. Through humor, heartbreak, and moments of profound clarity, Ashes in the Wind weaves themes of race, class, gender, and identity into an unforgettable fabric of healing and hope.

Ashes in the Wind offers a tender, raw, and ultimately redemptive narrative for listeners who appreciate complex characters and stories that delve into the messy beauty of love and life.
