Fragile — Chris Katsaropoulos

Luminis Books presents this heart-breaking tale of a love lost and three people who will do whatever it takes to bring it back.  
 
In a lifelong act of penitence and defiance, Amelia Geist has remained a virgin and saved herself for Tris, the first love who abandoned her more than 50 years ago.
 
A few weeks from retirement, Tris Holloway has led a secluded life in the hills above Silicon Valley. Trapped in a loveless marriage, he remains shattered by his decision to leave Amelia.
 
While Holly may be the only one who can repair the many-years deep rift between the former lovers, she has demons of her own to contend with. Poverty and the lack of a partner to help raise her young child lead her to suicide, another area of life in which she fails.
 
The stories of Tris, Holly, and Amelia are presented in Fragile as broken fragments, woven together by profound truth and an astonishing connection that transcends the boundaries between this world and the next.
