About The author

Patrick and Elise Murray

Patrick and Elise Murray are more than just co-authors—they are life partners, creative soulmates, and believers in the healing power of storytelling.

Together, they’ve walked through seasons of both joy and heartbreak. Their experiences with love, loss, and personal transformation have shaped their unique voice—a voice that resonates deeply in their debut novel, Three Tears of Hope. This is a story born from nights spent reflecting on life’s hardest moments and days filled with quiet faith that even in pain, there is purpose.

Patrick, a former counselor, has spent much of his life listening to the stories of others—stories filled with both brokenness and resilience. Elise, a lifelong journal keeper and lover of poetry, finds beauty in the unspoken moments and brings emotional depth and warmth to every page.

 

What started as a therapeutic project between them grew into a manuscript… and then into a message. A message that pain doesn’t have to define you. That hope can grow in the most unexpected places. And that sometimes, the tears we shed are not signs of weakness, but seeds of healing.

When they aren’t writing, Patrick and Elise can be found sipping strong coffee on the porch, hiking quiet trails with their rescue dogs, or exploring dusty used bookstores in search of stories that still matter.

Three Tears of Hope is their first novel—and a reflection of their shared belief: that even the most fragile stories can carry incredible strength.
