Our texts are short. "How was school?" "Good." "How is work?" "Busy." We are determined to succeed, but determination has kept us apart.But December has one rule in our house, and we never break it: Everyone must come home.This December, homecoming is not what we expected. There is romance in the snow, laughter in the kitchen, and a grief that will test whether our love is strong enough to hold us together.We thought we were coming home for Christmas. We were coming home to find out what home really means.HOMECOMING is a tragicomedy about love, grief, joy, and the determination of a family that refuses to stay scattered.
