Description
With the poems collected in Tesserae, Michelle McLean brings together the thread of a story that starts in pieces and then through courage and persistence puts the fragments of experience into a mosaic of strength and beauty.
This book is an act of bravery. The author's skill as a poet creates a narrative that moves from shattering trauma to broad compassion, from the dark path of hard coping to an opening field of light and the solid joy of recovery.
The author's poetic voice is so sharply honed and unflinching that Tesserae stands not simply as a collection of poems but as a fully realized story-
as a distinct and memorable book.

Her novel Truly, Madly, Sweetly, written as Kira Archer, was adapted as a Hallmark Original movie in 2018.When Michelle's not working, reading, or chasing her kids around, she can usually be found baking, diamond painting, or trying to find free wall space upon which to hang her diamond paintings. She resides in PA with her husband and two teens, the world's most spoiled dog, and a cat who absolutely rules the house. She also writes contemporary romance as USA Today bestselling author Kira Archer.
