Award-winning author JoDee Neathery is proud to announce that her latest novel, Wings Against the Wind , has received the esteemed Literary Titan Book Award, a recognition that honors books delivering exceptional storytelling, compelling characters, and a memorable reading experience. Released in March 2026, the novel continues Neathery's tradition of emotionally rich fiction and further establishes her as a powerful voice in contemporary women's fiction.

Wings Against the Wind is a moving and layered story of forbidden love, devastating loss, and the courage it takes to begin again. The novel follows Gretchen Cassidy, a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, who travels to Paris, France, on a missionary trip and unexpectedly falls in love with the co-owner of a rare and antiquarian bookstore. What begins as a tender yet forbidden romance evolves into a sweeping journey through heartbreak, tragedy, and resilience as Gretchen fights through overwhelming obstacles to reclaim what was lost and build a new future. Her path carries her from France to Germany to the Texas Hill Country, where each step forward tests her strength, resolve, and hope.

Literary Titan praised Wings Against the Wind for its emotional depth, expansive storytelling, and heartfelt sincerity. The review highlights the novel's ability to move from a Paris-set tale of illicit love and suspicious death into a broader and deeply human story about grief, reinvention, motherhood, illness, second chances, and chosen family. Literary Titan noted Gretchen's emotional authenticity and the novel's "full-bodied earnestness," commending Neathery's affection for books, atmosphere, and gestures of care. The review also recognized the book's sweeping, eventful plot and its powerful belief in redemption, recommending it to readers of women's fiction, family drama, romantic suspense, contemporary romance, and emotionally driven literary fiction.

Following her debut novel Life in a Box in 2017 and her highly regarded 2021 release A Kind of Hush , Wings Against the Wind reflects Neathery's gift for creating emotionally resonant stories that explore love, sacrifice, moral complexity, and healing. The Literary Titan Book Award affirms the novel's impact on readers and its place among standout new works in contemporary fiction.
