The Summons: A Call to Love (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798993253909)

Espionage, forbidden love, and found family: a story of queer resistance and healing, told with intimacy and urgency

At her breaking point, Noel "El" De la Mare has nothing left-no job, no home, and no hope. But a letter from a great-aunt she's never met offers her a lifeline: a plane ticket to France, a place to stay, and a chance to rewrite her story.

In the quiet beauty of Laleu, Noel meets Catherine and Colette-two women whose love and wartime heroism defied the odds. As Noel helps them edit their memoirs, she uncovers a hidden legacy of queer resistance, family betrayal, and extraordinary courage. Their story becomes her mirror, guiding her toward healing, justice, and love.

Spanning generations and continents, The Summons: A Call to Love is a powerful novel of found family, redemption, and the enduring strength of women in war. For anyone who's ever felt lost, this is a story of truth, belonging, and the courage to answer the call of your own heart.
