Pinellas Park, FL October 02, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Mike Wilsbach has completed a new book, "MERCY AIR," a stirring novel that follows Cooper, an elite helicopter pilot at Mercy Air who excels at rescuing strangers but has failed to save his own family. Five years after an affair shattered his marriage, Cooper remains trapped in the wreckage of his choices: limited to court-ordered monthly visits with his children, a daughter who cannot bear to look at him, and a remorse that no aerial rescue can ease. When his estranged wife Olivia reappears with a devastating diagnosis, Cooper finds himself confronted with a second chance he may not deserve and must navigate impossible questions about love, forgiveness, and redemption.
The author draws from his distinctive background to craft this authentic narrative. Mike Wilsbach is a retired United States Air Force firefighter who served during Operation Desert Shield, Operation Desert Storm, and multiple deployments to Iraq in direct support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Now serving as an Associate Pastor at Calvary Chapel St. Petersburg, Florida, Wilsbach brings both hard-won wisdom and pastoral insight to his fiction, creating characters who grapple with genuine spiritual and emotional struggles.
In "MERCY AIR," Wilsbach explores profound themes of grace, betrayal, and the possibility of healing across fractured relationships. Torn between a new love he cannot fully trust and the family he devastated, Cooper must confront whether human or divine love possesses the power to restore what has been torn asunder. Readers will discover a raw, unflinching examination of how mercy operates not by erasing consequences, but by cultivating something redemptive within the ashes of our failures. This is a story for anyone who has wondered whether grace can truly reach the darkest corners of our brokenness.
"I wrote this story from my conviction that mercy is real and that God's grace doesn't ignore the wreckage we create—it transforms it," said Wilsbach. "Cooper's journey reflects the struggles of anyone trying to rebuild trust and faith after causing irreparable harm, and I hope readers find in his story a reflection of their own longing for redemption."
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Mike Wilsbach's spiritually rich work invites readers to wrestle with forgiveness, sacrifice, and the possibility of resurrection within broken families. This profound novel will challenge and encourage anyone seeking hope amid their deepest regrets.
Readers who wish to experience this transformative work can purchase "MERCY AIR" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
