A Contemporary Family Drama
Daniel Carter thought he knew what it meant to provide for his family. He worked hard. He paid the bills. He bought the house. He built the life he'd promised his wife and children in a quiet Ohio suburb where the lawns are green, the driveways are full, and everyone, it seems, has it figured out.
Then the transmission goes. Then the grocery bill climbs again. Then his daughter mentions a college three states away, and the numbers simply stop working.
The Price of Home is a heartfelt family drama about a middle-class American family under financial pressure - the kind millions of readers will recognize from their own kitchen tables. As Daniel and his wife, Sarah, are forced to confront what their house actually costs them, in money, in marriage, in time with their kids, they discover that the neighbors behind every other manicured lawn are quietly carrying the same fear. What begins as a story about a mortgage becomes a story about honesty, sacrifice, and what a family owes each other when the life they built starts costing more than they can afford.
A moving, character-driven novel for readers of emotional family sagas and book club fiction about money, marriage, and home - The Price of Home asks the question so many families are afraid to say out loud: How much should you pay for the life you thought you wanted?
Perfect for readers who loved emotionally resonant, relatable family drama and contemporary women's fiction exploring real financial struggles, marriage under pressure, and what "home" really means.
