Helen Ames-recently widowed, coping with grief, unable to do the work that has always sustained her-is beginning to depend too much on her twenty-seven-year-old daughter, Tessa, meddling in her life and offering unsolicited advice. Then Helen is shocked to discover that her mild-mannered and seemingly loyal husband was apparently leading a double life. When a phone call from a stranger sets Helen on a surprising path of discovery, both mother and daughter reassess what they thought they knew about each other, themselves, and what really makes a home and a family.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"It's easy to understand why Elizabeth Berg is a beloved, best-selling writer."--<i>Chicago Sun-Times</i> <p/>"Simple, beautiful, and ever so real . . . one of [Elizabeth Berg's] most honest and intimate novels."--<i>Boston Globe <br></i><br>"<b>Home Safe</b> explores, with insight and humor, what it's like to lose everything and to emerge from the other side."--<i>St. Petersburg Times <p/></i>"[Elizabeth] Berg gracefully renders . . . the notions that every life . . . has its share of awful loss, and that even crushed, defeated hearts can be revived."--<i>Publishers Weekly<br></i><br>"[Berg's] warmth, humor, and forgiving eye for human nature, mixing wry observation with heartwarming moments, make this a pleasant read."--<i>Library Journal<br></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Elizabeth Berg is the author of many bestselling novels as well as two works of nonfiction. <b>Open House </b>was an Oprah's Book Club selection, <b>Durable Goods</b><i> </i>and<i> </i><b>Joy School</b> were selected as ALA Best Books of the Year, and<b> Talk Before Sleep</b> was short-listed for an Abby Award.
