Evidence note: this is a book/source-card story. NewsForBC is confirming the public post, cover text and Amazon listing; it is not independently verifying the events described inside the memoir.
Jeff Angel Doucet posted that, after years of “surviving, rebuilding, and learning to come home to myself,” the memoir Fighting to Come Home is finished and published. The post describes the book as “a true story of trauma, survival, motherhood, accountability, and hope.”
The cover names the author as Angel Willard and uses the subtitle-style line: “A true story of trauma, survival and motherhood.” It also includes the quote: “I wasn’t fighting to come home to a place. I was fighting to come home to myself.”

Why it matters locally
NewsForBC usually focuses on source-linked public records, politics, courts and community issues. Local books matter too, especially when they give B.C. readers a first-person account of survival, injury, motherhood, accountability and recovery outside the normal institutional press-release cycle.
For readers, the source trail is simple: the Facebook post announced the book, the cover identifies the memoir and author, and Amazon provides the public purchase pages. The deeper life story belongs to the author’s memoir; this article links the book without overstating what NewsForBC can independently verify.
