A love story for today, an open and striking look into the private relationship of a musician and chef living in New York City.

Can two people stay connected for a lifetime and each know the complete truth about the other? When New Yorker Nick Satterborn falls in love with Sassa Vikander, he’s convinced the answer is yes.

Nick Satterborn. Songwriter. Dabbler on the spiritual path. Survivor.

Sassa Vikander. Stunning chef. Seeker on the path of most resistance. Survivor.

Contentment percolates for a time, until the two are hurtled into a life of uncertainty, self-evaluation, and growth. Each dreams heroic dreams of overcoming his/her past, rising out of sadness, rediscovering home, finding peace. Their worlds dissolve and reform. People and events threaten to tear them apart.

The Color of Home is a story of love, of loss, of digging deep down to the bottom of things until maybe, just maybe, Nick and Sassa find the strength to become whole. Their journey offers a unique, honest glimpse into the life and love of a palpably rare relationship of our time.

“The Color of Home sings an achingly joyful blues tune. It’s the song of lives stripping away the hardened scars until all that’s left is the possibility of each other. It’s a tune we’ve all sung, but seldom with such poetry and depth. Read this and weep . . . and laugh, and sing, and sing some more.” —Myron Rogers, co-author of A Simpler Way

“A great read… In addition to being captured by the characters and story, it generated questions about my own life and loves, choices made, how to live with more intention and truth. Highly recommend you go on the journey.” — 5 Star Amazon Review
