Reviews

"Kayla Williams's intimate and honest portrayal of marriage after the tragedy of war is a must-read for military spouses, caregivers, and anyone hoping to gain an understanding of the challenges faced by soldiers coming home. Kayla and Brian's perseverance is a tribute to the power of the human spirit to not only survive but to thrive." -- Marie Tillman, author of The Letter: My Journey Through Love, Loss & Life and founder of the Pat Tillman Foundation "If you think you know the meaning of the word sacrifice, when you read Kayla Williams's masterful memoir Plenty of Time When We Get Home you will come away with a whole new appreciation for the incredible people who serve our country. Part heartache, hard truth, love story, and an insider's look at the back end of war, this book offers us a look behind the uniforms and the parades and into the damage of war's wounds. In the end, it is a story about how love can ultimately heal." -- Lee Woodruff, author of In an Instant and Those We Love Most "In her second book, Plenty of Time When We Get Home, Kayla Williams's raw, honest, and take-no-prisoners prose gives service members and families scarred by war the greatest gift of all-hope." -- Tanya Biank, author of Lifetime TV's Army Wives and Undaunted: The Real Story of America's Servicewomen in Today's Military "Ruthlessly raw and objective." -- Publishers Weekly "A reminder that the best books... impart a sense of shared experience, and to read them is to participate in humanity." -- Gregg LaGambina, author of The A.V.
