Taya Kyle and her husband, Chris, were the happiest they ever had been. Their decade-long marriage had survived years of war that took Chris, a U.S. Navy SEAL, away from Taya and their two children for agonizingly long stretches while he put his life on the line in many major battles of the Iraq War. After struggling to readjust his life out of the military, Chris had found new purpose in redirecting his lifelong dedication to service toward supporting veterans. Then. The unthinkable. On February 2, 2013, Chris and his friend Chad Littlefield were killed while attempting to help a troubled vet. In an instant, Taya became a single parent of two. A widow. A young women facing the rest of her life without he man she loved. Chis and Taya’s remarkable story has captivated millions through Clint Eastwood’s blockbuster, Academy Award-winning film “American Sniper”. Now Taya writes in never-before-told detail about their marriage and the difficult hours, days, and months after his shocking death when grief threatened to overwhelm her. And yet throughout, friendship, family, and a deepening faith were lifelines that sustained her and the kids when the sorrow became too much.
