About the Book
★★★★★
Goodreads | Amazon
"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.

Michèle Phoenix’s Of Stillness and Storm is a captivating and thought-provoking novel—one that lingered in my mind long after my reading of the last page. She transported me to the other side of the world with her intricate characters, and I couldn’t help my emotions getting all tangled up with their storylines of family, calling, and the ministry lifestyle. It’s a powerful read—with heartbreak and hope—and I highly recommend it to the interested reader. It’s certainly worth the read.

Thanks to LitFuse Publicity Group, I received a copy of Of Stillness and Storm and the opportunity to provide an honest review. I was not required to write a positive review, and all the opinions I have expressed are my own.
