"An impossible decision in the chaos of D-Day. Ripples that cascade seventy-five years into the present. And two lives transformed by the tenuous resolve to reach out of the darkness toward fragments of light. Cancer stole everything from Ceelie-her peace of mind, her selfimage, perhaps even her twenty-three-year marriage to her college sweetheart, Nate. Without the support of Darlene, her quirky elderly friend, she may not have been able to endure so much loss. So when Darlene's own prognosis turns dire, Ceelie can't refuse her seemingly impossible request-to find a WWII paratrooper named Cal, the father who disappeared when Darlene was an infant, leaving a lifetime of desolation in his wake. The search that begins in the farmlands of Missouri eventually leads Ceelie to a small town in Normandy, where she uncovers the harrowing tale of the hero who dropped off-target into occupied France. Alternating between Cal's D-Day rescue by two French sisters and Ceelie's present-day journey through trial and heartbreak, Fragments of Light explores a timeless question: When life becomes unbearable, will you surrender to the darkness or dare to press toward a lingering light? Praise for Fragments of Light "Michèle Phoenix skillfully explores the strength and resiliency of the human spirit but also its heartbreaking limits. Brimming with expertly researched wartime details, Fragments of Light abounds with poignancy and insight." -Susan Meissner, bestselling author of The Last Year of the War "As a D-Day Airborne participant, I recommend this novel with enthusiasm. Everyone should read it." -Staff Sergeant Thomas Rice, WWII Veteran, 101st Airborne "Michele Phoenix's Fragments of Light is a luminous portrait of men and women grappling with the past in a brave attempt to forge a different kind of future . . . A story as beautiful as it is heartbreaking. In short, I loved this book!" -Lauren Denton, USA TODAY bestselling author of The Hideaway "Deeply personal and beautifully humane, Phoenix once again asserts her power as one of the most moving and lyrical voices in inspirational fiction." -Rachel McMillan, author of The London Restoration "Written with depth and understanding, this story offers readers a wonderful journey spanning from war-torn World War II France to a battle for love in our time." -Katherine Reay, bestselling author of Dear Mr. Knightley "As the title suggests, there are no easy illuminations on the path of healing. Cancer attacks more than the body. War destroys more than flesh and bone. Not all heroes welcome the attention, and not all husbands are up to the challenge. Women find the most unlikely sources of strength, and the best families defy definition." -Allison Pittman, bestselling author of The Seamstress "It's not often a story moves me as Fragments of Light has. With a rare and honest voice, Michèle Phoenix weaves a story of heroes from yesteryear and also those from your neighborhood-each with hearts of valor-as they endure the fight of their lives." -Elizabeth Byler Younts, Carol Award-winning author The Solace of Water"

Of Stillness and Storm

"Award-winning and highly acclaimed author, Michèle Phoenix, pens a story of marriage and missions, and what happens when they don't always align. "The Poisonwood Bible for a new generation." -Elizabeth Musser, author of The Long Highway Home "I felt torn between two worlds. Each with its own mystery. One more captivating than the other, but the other more real and breathing." It took Lauren and her husband ten years to achieve their dream-reaching primitive tribes in remote regions of Nepal. But while Sam treks into the Himalayas for weeks at a time, finding passion and purpose in his work among the needy, Lauren and Ryan stay behind, their daily reality more taxing than inspiring. For them, what started as a calling begins to feel like the family's undoing. At the peak of her isolation and disillusion, a friend from Lauren's past enters her life again. But as her communication with Aidan intensifies, so does the tension of coping with the present while reengaging with the past. It's thirteen-year-old Ryan who most keenly bears the brunt of her distraction. Intimate and bold, Of Stillness and Storm weaves profound dilemmas into a tale of troubled love and honorable intentions gone awry. "In this fine novel, Phoenix realistically captures the deep struggles enveloping a missionary family." -Publishers Weekly"
