A Hero to Come Home to, by Marilyn Pappano is a story of a woman falling in love again after her husband was killed while serving in the military. It was well written and interesting, with well-rounded characters and great insight into the lives of the men, women and children whose lives are influenced by loved ones dying while serving our country. Overall, I really enjoyed the book, with one minor exception. Although I am a religious person, I find myself bothered by books that make frequent references to God and religion (church, prayer, miracles, etc) unless they are classified specifically as religious books. I felt almost distracted by the religious references in the book, although I'm sure other readers might find these references uplifting or enjoyable. I didn't. However, I still recommend the book and will most likely read the next one. 4 out of 5 stars
