"Thank you for your service" is what we're taught to say to military men and women in gratitude for our freedoms won at their expense. Less often do we thank their families, those left behind to hold down the fort, to manage the day-to-day struggle of keeping everything up in the air until their loved one returns. When you can't count on anyone else to save you, there's only one real choice. Amanda lost her husband to war. Alex lost part of himself. Through a series of glancing encounters, Amanda and Alex find reasons to continue on. And together, they'll discover hope and peace can be found in the most unexpected of places.
