by Linda Hughes (Author)

In this stunning coming of age novel, acclaimed author Linda Hughes delivers an emotional and uplifting story of a young woman's travails and triumphs during the tumultuous 1970s.


Women can come into their own in the most unexpected ways. Llayne Robertson is the least likely coed on campus to be elected homecoming queen. Broke, broken-hearted, and waitressing at a house of burlesque, she's an unknown outcast surviving in the shadows of typical college life.


That is until members of the Vietnam Veterans Club set their sights on Llayne as their candidate for homecoming queen. An uproar by traditional students solidifies their resolve. They may have lost battles overseas, but this is one fight the vets are determined to win.


As the shiny crown is placed on Llayne's head, she realizes the real victory lies in the unexpected bonds of deep friendship that have been forged during the campaign. When she falls in love with a veteran, she discovers that the battle is not over for those who fought. Her newfound confidence serves her well as she navigates the tragic remnants of war.


Homecoming Queen is a richly compelling story of a young woman who finds within herself a surprising wellspring of courage, grace, and determination. Llayne Robertson embodies the strength and resilience of women of all ages who face life's most challenging struggles and emerge triumphant.


That is the best homecoming of all.
