    About this ebook

    "Beautifully Written" JoAnn Ross - New York Times Bestselling author of the Shelter Bay series

    Welcome back to the tiny military community where the men are strong and the women who dare to love them.

     

    To everyone who knows him, Gale Sorren is a grumpy first sergeant who, despite his gruff exterior, cares deeply about protecting those around him. What no one can see is that he's been running from his mistakes his entire life. He's never forgiven himself for letting his wife walk out of his life with their infant daughter but because of the war, he's never had a second chance.

     

    Mel was too young to be an Army wife and when everything became too overwhelming, she ran, thinking it would be easier to keep her heart from breaking every time she thought about her husband leaving on another deployment. Raising their daughter along hasn't been easy but Mel is wracked with guilt, wondering how much her choices have lead to hear daughter's struggles. The last thing she's planning on is bringing Gale back into her life so when he shows up at a company party, she's completely blindsided with the realization that she's never stopped loving him.

     

    But now that he's living in the same small town, he's forced to make a choice: keep running or face the fact that he's always loved her. And together, they have to find a way to convince their daughter that she's worthy of the love she's always deserved but he hasn't been around to give.

      Love this author so much and this fantastic book is her latest. Trust me, if you've read her books before or not you won't be disappointed. In this book we get a good look at what difficulties a military family has to endure. Though the both still loved each other neither was strong enough to keep their young family together. Now, fourteen years later Gale Sorren has finally gotten stationed near his ex wife and daughter and he plans to do everything in his power to piece that family back together.

      This is a definite must read, I highly recommend it.

      Gale and Melanie married young, had a child and were torn apart by the demands of a life in the military. Years later Gale has fought to be stationed closer to Melanie and his daughter so that he might still have a chance to be a father before it is too late. This was a good story. The struggles of being a family in the military are real and this book showed some aspects of that. The characters were written realistically and were allowed to be flawed. I would recommend this book.
