Thanks to Emily LaBeaume of Wunderkind PR, I am giving away one copy of Home Front.
Book Description:
In HOME FRONT Hannah tells the story of Michael and Jolene, a married couple working and raising their children. 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 sends Jolene, a helicopter pilot in the Army National Guard, deep into harm’s way and leaves defense attorney Michael at home, struggling to care for their children. The months Jolene is away take their toll on her family and changes her marriage in surprising ways. When an unexpected tragedy hits, each family member must face their worst fears and accept that change is inevitable, life isn’t always cheerful and love is not indispensable.
Kristin Hannah is an award-winning New York Times bestselling author of nineteen novels. After working in a trendy advertising agency, Kristin decided to go to law school. “But you’re going to be a writer” are the prophetic words she would never forget from her mother. Kristin was in her third-and final-year of law school and her mom was in the hospital, facing the end of her long battle with cancer. Kristin was shocked to discover that her mother believed she would become a writer. For the next few months, they collaborated on the worst, most clichéd historical romance ever written.
After her mom’s death, she packed up all those bits and pieces of paper they’d collected and put them in a box in the back of her closet. Kristin got married and continued practicing law.
Then Kristin found out she was pregnant and was on bed rest for five months. By the time she’d read every book in the house and started asking her husband for cereal boxes to read, she knew she was a goner. That’s when her husband reminded her of the book she’d started with her mom. Kristin pulled out the boxes of research material, dusted them off and began writing. By the time their son was born, she’d finished a first draft and found an obsession.
