Come Home to Me

Aubrey Warren is the pastor’s sheltered daughter with more parental rules than explanations for the many bruises she hides. Drawn at first to Jake’s strength, Aubrey feeds off his valor and finds she will risk everything to be with him. While Aubrey’s unwavering faith sustains her, will it be enough to return Jake from a tour in Vietnam?

Jake Manning is intrigued by the new girl whose idealistic view of the world is intoxicating. Having been raised by an atheist and holding a draft notice he can’t avoid, Jake knows his time with Aubrey is limited. War changes a person, and the atrocities Jake participates in leave him reeling and unsure of his place in the world, but when Jake promised Aubrey forever, he meant it.

Set against the backdrop of the 1960’s civil rights movement, the Vietnam War, and the ensuing societal divide that is echoed in today’s America, Come Home to Me is the story of two unlikely lovers questioning what it means to be righteous while fighting to be together.
