Kristin Hannah's newest book is an emotional journey. Home Front follows a family and a struggling marriage. Michael and Jolene have been married for twelve years. They have two daughters, bills, chores and jobs just like any family. All marriages have a breaking point and theirs is in trouble. Unexpectedly Jolene is deployed. She is on the front lines of a war and is in danger. She knew as a solider that this could happen, but it still pains her to leave her family. Michael is now a single father at home taking care of their girls alone, something he isn't used to. Jolene shields her family from the truth about being on the front lines, but the experience will change her forever. When tragedy strikes Michael must face his worst fear.
Are you looking for a simple romantic book? This next book by Catherine Anderson sounds like a relaxing read by the pool (if your going on a vacation anytime soon)
To support her niece, Brianna O'keefe takes a job at a Colorado ranch. To stop any unwanted attention she creates the lie that she is married to the Denver gold miner David Paxton. But when he suddenly shows up, Brianna isn't surprised by her desire towards her "husband".

This is a great read. I like books that make me think and this one, as do all Kristin Hannah books, rose to the occasion. I agree with another reviewer that people tell too much of the story in reviews, so YES read it. In fact I avoid reading the book jacket because they tell so much of the story. Can't wait for the next Hannah book!
