Married to the Military by Terry L. Rollins

Married to the Military by Terry L. Rollins
Publisher: Tate Publishing (April 2009)
216 pages, eBook (provided to me by the author)
Book Rating: 5 Stars

This is a collection of ten fictional stories about military wives. These are not sugar-coated, feel-good stories about military life, but an honest look at the trials and struggles that face a military spouse, including everything from frequent moves and trying to raise children with a frequently absent spouse to dealing with battle injuries and grief. Some of these stories were sad, but there were funny moments as well. I think these stories would appeal to those from civilian and military backgrounds alike, because at the core these are stories about married couples and the challenges of life. I liked the way these tough topics were met head-on, with no attempt to glaze over the difficult realities. Great collection!
