When a former insider is forced to return to the institution that once erased her, she faces a chilling demand—to sign a clause that will permanently alter the past.

A moving family saga of legacy, love, and self-discovery.e
The Same Song
When Michael Bancroft dies suddenly — leaving an empty stage and a thousand people quietly singing his song, now their song — he leaves behind the woman who loved him and two teenage boys already charting their way in the world. Sol Bancroft hears melody. His twin brother Zach hears structure. They grew up in their father’s music — in rehearsal rooms and tour buses and the late-night conversations where Michael Bancroft worked out what he believed and what he was for. They knew each other before they knew anything else. And somewhere in the years that followed, they became two entirely different men.
A powerful tale of faith, family, and fearless devotion.
Chiara
She was sixteen years old when she heard the voice that would cost her everything. Assisi, in the spring of 1210. Chiara di Favarone is the eldest daughter of a noble house still rebuilding itself after years of war and exile. She has been promised in marriage before she was old enough to be asked. Her days are arranged, her future settled, her place in the world decided by the men who hold the family’s name. Then a barefoot man — the son of a cloth merchant, lately of no account — begins preaching in the square below the cathedral. And Chiara begins to feel something she has no name for. Not rebellion. Not certainty. A recognition. A pull toward a life her family cannot imagine and will not permit.
