Everyone talks about the day they come home. Nobody talks about what happens the week after.
Coming Home is a relationship guide for both partners navigating the hardest chapter: reentry. Not the release day fantasy, but the real work of two people who have each changed significantly, in different directions, trying to build a shared life again in real time. Fourteen chapters covering the gap between fantasy and reality, role renegotiation, communication, physical intimacy, parenting together, trauma, trust, and what honest assessment looks like at six months.
Written by someone approaching her own husband's reentry, with fifteen years of clinical experience behind her and every fear named honestly on the page.
Release is not the end of the story. This is the guide for what comes next.
