A young widow embraces a second chance at life when she reconnects
with those who understand the sacrifices made by American soldiers and
their families in award-winning author Laura Trentham's The Military
Wife.
Harper Lee Wilcox has been marking time in her hometown of Kitty Hawk,
North Carolina since her husband**,** Noah Wilcox's death, nearly five
years earlier. With her son Ben turning five and living at home with her
mother, Harper fights a growing restlessness, worried that moving on
means leaving the memory of her husband behind.
Her best friend, Allison Teague, is dealing with struggles of her own.
Her husband, a former SEAL that served with Noah, was injured while
deployed and has come home physically healed but fighting PTSD. With
three children underfoot and unable to help her husband, Allison is at
her wit's end.
In an effort to reenergize her own life, Harper sees an opportunity to
help not only Allison but a network of other military wives eager to
support her idea of starting a string of coffee houses close to military
bases around the country.
In her pursuit of her dream, Harper crosses paths with Bennett Caldwell,
Noah's best friend and SEAL brother. A man who has a promise to keep,
entangling their lives in ways neither of them can foresee. As her
business grows so does an unexpected relationship with Bennett. Can
Harper let go of her grief and build a future with Bennett even as the
man they both loved haunts their pasts?
