How to survive a life of fifo.

What does one do with their time when they’re a stay at home mum who’s married to a fly in fly out worker? You read. This is how I survived isolation and loneliness. This is a raw real life occurrence that impacts thousands upon thousands of people every day. Books got me through some of the hardest and darkest days. In that time there are books that stand out for me for giving me a distraction. There are authors who gave me the escape I needed. Carmen Jenner and her brilliant artestry for creating engrossing stories is one of them. My life was chaos, so why not run “Toward the Sound of Chaos”. To this day I’ve read this story 3 or 4 times. It always draws me back.

Jake Tucker is broken. At twenty-two, he went in to the Marine Corps a naïve, troubled youth. Nine years and four tours later, Jake finds himself back on US soil, though his mind remains firmly planted in the sands of Afghanistan with the men he left behind.

Wounded, chewed up and spat out by war, Jake has only his dog, Nuke, PTSD, and survivor’s guilt to keep him company. He’s lived every day for nine years wondering when it will be his last, but there’s little comfort in the fact that he’s still standing when his platoon isn’t.

Ellie Mason doesn’t have time for broken. She’s too busy trying to put food on the table. And keeping up with the demands of her autistic son, Spencer, is sometimes like fighting behind enemy lines. As if navigating the minefields of single parenthood isn’t enough, Ellie finds herself drawn to the quiet Marine who’s just as lonely as she is. But she’s loved damaged men before, and it left her wounded.

Set against the picturesque backdrop of Fairhope, Alabama, Ellie and Jake find themselves running toward the sound of chaos.

Love is war.

Only the strong survive, and surrender is inevitable.

So who is Carmen Jenner?

Carmen Jenner is a USA Today and international bestselling author from Australia.

A hardcore red lipstick addict and a romantic at heart, Carmen enjoys books—duh!—long walks through Sephora, tattooed boys, and eyeliner so sharp it could kill a man. She lives in small-town, Australia, where she wrangles her two children, a French Bulldog named Busy, her Jungle Jag Python named Bunny, and her very own manchild.

Carmen always gives her characters the HEA they deserve, but not before ruining their lives completely first … because what’s a happily ever after without a little torture?
