I read this book in one sitting because I was so caught up in the story line and what would happen to Whit and Collier and the other characters.
I have no idea what it’s like to be an army wife and for my husband to be in harms way every day for weeks and months at a time, but I felt very sympathetic and sad for Whitt as she struggled with her life purpose and longing for him. By reading Whit’s emotions and experiences, I felt like I was there and experiencing things with her.
Whitt was able to find forgiveness and peace in situations that I’m not sure I personally would have been able to do. I liked that the author addressed some very real physical and emotional struggles that happen to soldiers when they get home, and that the husband Collier recognizes that he needs help and seeks it out.
“The Wounded Warrior’s Wife” is a VERY good story line that kept my interest the entire book. I can’t wait to read another books by this author! I would consider this book to be a clean, christian, romantic drama.
Here’s some info about the book and don’t forget to enter my giveaway at the bottom of this post!
WHITLEIGH CROMWELL dreamt of a happily ever after with her newlywed soldier husband. COLLIER CROMWELL loved God, his wife, and his country, though military life exacted a demanding toll.
An unexpected deployment during the height of war sends Collier away for yet another year. Their lives tumble down a path marked with struggle, and fatalities. Burdened with unseen emotional wounds and crippled faith, Collier’s homecoming only increases their trials.
The angry, defeated hermit at Whitleigh’s side barely resembles the loving, faithful hero she married two years earlier. Concerned about possible career repercussions, admitting his need for help proves difficult for Collier and his behavior worsens.
Angry outbursts — and his cold, callous nature — isn’t all that provokes Whitleigh to pack her bags. Collier seeks solace for his private suffering in the worst possible place leaving Whitleigh to walk away from shattered pieces of broken trust.
Will Collier seek the healing he desperately needs in time to save their marriage, or is it over? Are there wounds too deep, marriages too broken, and lives so far gone they fall beyond even God’s ability to restore?
