"From a distance, Michael and Joleen Zarkades seem to have it all: a solid marriage, two exciting careers, and children they adore. But after twelve years together, the couple has lost their way; they are unhappy and edging toward divorce. Then the Iraq war starts. An unexpected deployment will tear their already fragile family apart, sending one of them deep into harm's way and leaving the other at home, waiting for news. When the worst happens, each must face their darkest fear and fight for the future of their family. An intimate look at the inner landscape of a disintegrating marriage and a dramatic exploration of the price of war on a single American family, HOME FRONT is a provocative and timely portrait of hope, honor, loss, forgiveness, and the elusive nature of love"--… (meer)

This book was great! I won it through the Goodreads pre-release program and received it in the mail just a few days prior to its release to the public. The story focuses on Jolene, her family and her friendship with Tami and her family. Jolene and Tami are helicopter pilots in the Guard, raising their families on the West Coast and neighbors. Jolene's husband is an attorney and they have two daughters. Jolene's husband does not approve of the war and thinks it's something that is happening "over there" and not something that affects us here in America. Until Jolene and Tami get deployed and he has to reconfigure his entire life to be a single parent while Jolene is gone. This is a wonderful story that is beautifully told and I highly recommend it.

Listened to this book on audio and read physical copy. Starting with the positive, the struggle with mental health coming home gave the reader some understanding the thoughts going through people with PTSD. The book did give me the tears, but to be honest, the MC did not endear herself to me. I read this book with my bookclub and so I really tried to like this book, but I probably would have DNF'd by the time I got about halfway through, instead I would put it down and only pick it up between other books.

long book went by fast. I liked its reminder that marriage takes work and is not always easy. Only negative is I needed a box of tissues all the way through the book!!! Mom helicopter pilot deployed to Iraq, not a spoiler, just emotional all the way through. ( )
