When April and Leo escape a devastating house fire with their two young children, they are forced to confront more than the loss of their home. Moving in with April’s close-knit family offers comfort, but it also brings buried tensions, painful memories, and long-held secrets to the surface. As cracks in their marriage deepen and the family faces the realities of grief, caregiving, and change, April and Leo must decide what can be rebuilt—and what may be beyond saving.

​

Tender, heartfelt, and filled with deeply human characters, The Burning Side is a moving exploration of marriage, family, forgiveness, and what it truly means to call a place home.
