Mia Sheridan is the author of many love stories, such as Most of All You (2017), Grayson’s Vow (2015), and Travis (2021). Travis is the sequel to Archer’s Voice and follows the story of Travis Hale, Connor and Victoria Hale’s son. Common themes in her works include Small Town Love, the rejection of wealth as a facilitator of happiness, destiny, communication, loss, and healing. In an interview with Fiona McVie, Sheridan explains that she began writing after the loss of her daughter. To Sheridan, writing stories helped her to cope and explore the world she lived in, post-tragedy. These elements are certainly present in Archer’s Voice. Much like Sheridan, Bree and Archer must find a way to keep living after their prospective traumas.
In many of her novels, Sheridan explores the value of life as it relates to a person’s compassion and capacity to love. Much like Archer and Bree, the incentive to love and be loved is not rooted in wealth or prosperity, but in open communication and trust. In Archer’s Voice the threat of Victoria Hale’s plans to destroy the small town of Pelion and erect condos are reflective of this topic.
