When her husband was sentenced to seventeen months in prison--with four months already served--CL Goodman found herself serving a sentence of her own on the outside.
This raw and deeply personal memoir reveals what incarceration does to the families left behind: the silent nights, the costly collect calls, the visiting room goodbyes, and the quiet strength it takes to keep a household standing. While he learned to survive behind bars, she learned to survive the judgment, anxiety, and loneliness of loving someone the world had written off.
Through letters, faith, and unwavering commitment, Bound by Love, Not by Walls proves that prison may separate bodies--but it doesn't have to break love.
For every partner doing time on the outside, this story is a reminder: you are not alone.
