The Colour Of Home

In The Colour Of Home by Tammye Huf, readers are drawn into a richly felt historical fiction love story that lays bare the lived realities of segregation in wartime America, and the private costs of choosing duty, safety and desire.

In 1941, in a segregated Florida town, three young Black men enlist to fight for freedoms they’ve never been granted at home. Before they ship out, Cora makes a hurried marriage meant to steady her future—yet her heart remains pulled between the man she promised herself to and the man she can’t quite let go.

By 1945, the war is ending, but nothing slips neatly back into place. The boys return as changed men, carrying WWII trauma and secrets that threaten the fragile life Cora has tried to build.

Perfect for readers who love character-driven wartime romances, moral dilemmas and untold history. Add it to your basket and discover a story that lingers.
