Stranded in the countryside of France, tensions run high as Stevie and Lindsey are forced to coexist under the same roof while dealing with the aftermath of their debut solo records, the Tusk tour, and news of Robin's illness.

Kind Of Woman (Mirage Era: Part 1)
"All there was, was tea...and Lindsey." After three grueling tours in six years, two painful breakups, a growing addiction to cocaine and a very successful solo album called Bella Donna that she's dead-set on following up with The Wild Heart, Stevie cuts her first solo tour extremely short to honor her promise to Fleetwood Mac and join them in a castle forty miles outside of Paris, France to record an album that will be a lot more commercial than Tusk...much to Lindsey's chagrin... But when Stevie receives word that her best friend Robin is not only dying of leukemia but pregnant, she begins to rely more and more on Lindsey for support, and things heat up and emotions run high as the situation between them, the situation with Robin, as well as growing addictions and drama within the band, take hold. "Six weeks in a foreign country, how the time flew...I didn't speak the language, but somehow I knew..."Complete
Enchanted (Mirage Era: Part 2)
***A sequel to "Kind Of Woman"... 1982 is a very difficult year for Stevie as she deals with heading out on tour with Fleetwood Mac to promote the Mirage album, working on her second solo album, The Wild Heart, and the resignation that she is losing her best friend to leukemia, only after she discontinues treatment to leave behind her miracle baby. All the while, Lindsey has made his intentions clear: He wants Stevie back and has made every attempt to tell her he loves her, but according to Stevie and her wild heart, "it's a shame that he wanted her" because "he didn't try." (P.S. In-depth coverage of Stevie's infamous emotional "Sisters Of The Moon" performance just days after Robin's death included!)Complete
