Thanks so much for taking the time to review! I got your other comment, too and I am thinking it over. It's a bit like "What is Water?" I think - in that if the protagonist were the soldier's mother…

I'm falling in love with you, dpg. Thanks for pushing me through this stage. Her objective is to lead her family into becoming a supportive military family WITHOUT isolating herself or distancing herself - without losing her relationships with the…

This is my first time to review - so keep that in mind! The story might be interesting, but all I think of when I read the logline is some of the goofy sitcoms on now and they're so shallow…

He is a super guy, high achiever, highly promoted. But the I.E.D.'s blow up and lives get destroyed - over there and for the family at home. Love won't protect you in a war zone. Does that help? I appreciate…
