When Annie Jacobson's brother Mike enlists as a medic in the Army in 1967, he hands her a piece of paper with the address of their long-estranged father. If anything should happen to him in Vietnam, Mike says, Annie must let their father know.
In Mike's absence, their father returns to face tragedy at home, adding an extra measure of complication to an already tense time. As they work toward healing and pray fervently for Mike's safety overseas, letter by letter the Jacobsons must find a way to pull together as a family, regardless of past hurts. In the tumult of this time, Annie and her family grapple with the tension of holding both hope and grief in the same hand, even as they learn to turn to the One who binds the wounds of the brokenhearted.
Author Susie Finkbeiner invites you into the Jacobson family's home and hearts during a time in which the chaos of the outside world touched their small community in ways they never imagined.

I love this sweet story…

🇳🇱 Being Dutch, I loved all the Dutch references (common saying around my family is “if you ain’t Dutch you ain’t much) and learned even more about the culture and traditions.
🏠 It’s such a tender family saga, that explores real and difficult situations with sensitivity and simplicity. I love how we see life through a coming of age girl named Annie, who is genuine and unsullied.
🇺🇸 This whole novel felt like the Fourth of July and celebrating small town USA, with all of its nostalgia.
💔 It definitely pulls at your heart and shatters it even, but in a beautiful and touching way. Things are so much more beautiful and heartbreaking, when put at a backdrop of love and a strong family bond.
Tender and moving

There is much to fret about during wartime and author Susie Finkbeiner does an exceptional job of imbueding her readers with an overwhelming sense of hope through her characters while they struggle with grief and tragedy and all the things in-between for the Jacobson family; There is an estranged father who is making amends with his family. A budding 'taboo' inter racial relationship. A brother off to war and all the emotional stirring things of life that we all must deal with such as guilt, grief, anger, and fear since no man is immune to the these visceral human feelings.
