Bill Rancic

Listen to "Bill Rancic First Light" on Spreaker. “First Light pulls from my own life experiences to tell a fictional story of love, survival and hope. My desire is that people finish this book feeling empowered to tackle life’s countless challenges and obstacles. I believe through determination and faith anything can be achieved no matter how insurmountable the odds may appear. It was an incredible, cathartic experience writing my first novel, and I hope everyone finds the same inspiration and thrill while reading it that I had while putting it together.” – Bill Rancic In First Light, a debut novel inspired by his own love story with wife and television personality Giuliana Rancic, Bill Rancic recounts the story of a young couple as told to their 10-year-old son. Ten years earlier, Daniel and Kerry are leaving a work trip in Alaska to plan their wedding back home in Chicago when their plane is sent careening into a mountainside in the middle of the Yukon during a terrible snowstorm, seriously injuring Kerry in the accident. It soon becomes clear that search-and-rescue teams aren’t going to find the survivors in time to save her. Daniel, the one passenger with survival experience, determines to find help and bring it back to the rest of the passengers, but his choices are made all the more difficult by the presence of his boss, a stubborn man more interested in results than taking care of people. Only one man will come out of their trek alive, but it still may not be in time to save Kerry and the other critically injured survivors. As the parents’ story draws to a close, the truth about their son’s life will at last be revealed.
