“More than a storyteller, Cynthia Ruchti is an artist. They Almost Always Come Home is a novel to be savored, to linger over and allow each phrase to swirl around your tongue. Clearly the author is a lover of the melody and texture of words. Each line is sculpted. The reader will delight in layers of dual-connotation and ribbons of sometimes startling humor in this story of Libby Holden’s search for her husband, herself, and hope.”
Becky Melby, inspirational romance writer, co-author of nine Heartsong Presents novels

“From the first sentence to the last, Cynthia Ruchti’s They Almost Always Come Home is a glimpse into the heart of a woman whose story I’ll not soon forget. Characters became friends as the story of Libby and Greg captured my heart and made this book impossible to put down until the last page was turned and the last tear shed.”
Kathleen Y’Barbo, author of The Confidential Life of Eugenia Cooper

Cynthia, I am only half way through your book, “They Almost Always Come Home” and I just wanted to tell you how excellent this book is. I want to spend my day finishing it, but “life” prevents that. All day long I think about it and can’t wait to get back to it at night. I’m so anxious to see what happens next. Great job! Loving this story. I’m so worried about her.
