“All marriages have a breaking point. All families have wounds. All wars have a cost”
Michael and Jolene’s marriage is far less than perfect. In fact, their marriage is in trouble. And then to make matters even more complicated Jolene, a National Guard pilot is called to active service. Like any parent, Jolene hates to leave her family but duty calls and her husband, a defense attorney is left home alone to care for their two daughters. Homefront is a glimpse into the life of a military family. “It is a story of love, loss, heroism, honor, and ultimately, hope.”
Kristin Hannah is the author of numerous compelling novels such as Firefly Lane, Winter Garden and Night Road. Please join is in reading her latest novel Homefront.
and by the way……….GO BALTIMORE RAVENS !!!!!
So many who trumpet the perils of our service men and women and rightfully so. But for every one who serve and sacrifice, there are often many more back home who sacrifice as well by keeping the family life together in the absence of their soldier Mom or Dad.
The Ravens win over Denver was a shock to most and should be celebrated.
