What do you do when the man you’re married to is no longer the man you married?
Elise Sabato is proud of her husband, Brad, for serving his country…and grateful when he returns home to her. But the traumatic brain injury he suffered in Iraq has turned him from a thoughtful, brilliant, and patient man into someone quite different—someone who requires more care and attention than Elise can give while working at a demanding law firm. And when Brad ends up on his family’s farm, hundreds of miles away, she wonders where their marriage is headed.
Elise feels she must decide between the life she always wanted and the life she seems to be living…until she finds inspiration in the most unlikely of places: a lovable dog named Jones, who teaches her that when the best-laid plans take unexpected turns, sometimes you end up right where you were meant to be.
“A timely novel, but also a novel that speaks to the tides of any marriage, in peacetime or at war.” —Joseph Monninger, Author of Margaret from Maine
“Riveting and tender…the emotional battle a wife must wage to bring her husband back to her.” —Erika Marks, Author of The Mermaid Collector

Erin Celello was born and raised in Michigan’s gorgeous Upper Peninsula. She received an English degree from St. Norbert College, where she also ran track and was an editor of the St. Norbert Times. Not knowing what else one does with a degree in English, she set out for law school but never quite got there. Instead, she headed back up north to Marquette, Michigan where she received an MFA in fiction from Northern Michigan University and a PhD in snow shoveling. Eventually, Celello landed in Madison, Wisconsin, where she lives today with her unruly Vizslas, Leonard and Newton, and her husband Aaron. When she’s not writing, she loves escaping to the barn to hang out with her American Quarter Horse, Gino, and all the fabulous people who board their horses there. When she has a lot of free time, she loves cooking, running marathons, and competing in triathlons. She recently completed her first Ironman.
