Book Review: "True Home"

by Janet Clare



Janet Clare’s newest book, TRUE HOME, sings of love amid human imperfections of a kind we all know too well, and that can pull us off our path to happiness with enough force that we lose all direction.


Christina is a 40-something beauty who’s planning to divorce her scandal-ensconced politician husband, all while somehow maintaining a relationship with her 15-year-old daughter, Swanee, who loves to flee when the going gets tough.


Colin is a sportswriter in Seattle with a wonderful wife and three little kids. Unaware his career slump signals an oncoming midlife crisis, his life changes the day Christina, his ex-wife, calls him, looking for emotional support after Swanee runs away from her boarding school.


Lies, infidelity, old addictions and new realities emerge as these characters come face-to-face with the inner demons that lead them astray. Only through self-confrontation do they learn the meaning of true home.


Fast-paced and brutally honest!
