I’ve
read practically every book that Wendy S. Marcus has written, and this one is
stunning. There’s so much emotion that is portrayed within the pages that I
felt like I was laughing and crying along with the characters. Comical at
times, but still packed with intensity as truths are revealed during some of the
most awkward and honest moments. Krissy is a hard-working nurse, but a lot of
people still imagine her as the wild party-girl of her teenage years. In
reality, though, Krissy has matured into a respectable beautiful woman. And, it’s
with that respect that she promises her best friend Jarrod something that is
sure to shock, but yet bring together
friends and family members. Spencer was best friends with Jarrod, and he blames
Krissy for him having joined the Army. But, what he doesn’t know is what Krissy
promised Jarrod. Everything will come to light, however, when letters are
distributed to each important person in Jarrod’s life. As Krissy and Spencer
spend more time together, they find themselves rekindling that friendship that
they shared in the past. Will it develop into something more as Spencer sees
just how capable and caring Krissy is with the huge undertaking that now is
bestowed on her?
This
is so not your typical military romance. This one will floor you and leave you
speechless. The storyline is one that I’ve never read before, and it’s written
with compassion and heart. There’s a definite chemistry between Krissy and
Spencer as they finally connect on a more romantic level. And, the passion
between them is sensual and touching. I couldn’t help but enjoy the witty
banter between the two also. The love/hate relationship that they shared was
endearing. It was a beautiful story with a great cast of characters as feelings
were shared during a most tenderhearted step towards finding comfort and
fulfillment. This is surely one that you’re not going to want to miss...
“You
are what my life’s been missing. You’re fun and passionate, a wonderful mother,
and thank God, kind and forgiving. You’re laid back, you go with the flow and I
need that in my life.” ~ Spencer (Chap. 16)
“You’re
confident and sexy, dependable and smart, and you’re going to make a wonderful
father for J.J.”
~ Krissy (Chap. 16)
