Having not read any of
the books leading up to this one, I did not know what to expect. What I found was an extremely engaging,
well-written story about two extremely broken people that don’t realize they
are each other’s strength.
You meet Wyatt, since
returning home from his tour in Afghanistan he is saddled with a arsenal of
guilt and a psychiatrist that is trying to help him. He returns to find his girl, his best friend,
his glue and his heart has decided they need to go back to friends only
status. This does not bode well for his
recovery. When her kisses are what he
lived for, he now looks to numb his pain with drugs and nameless women. Ghosts mar his daily life, feelings of guilt
for surviving, all of this lead to his mental destruction.
Lacey is a simple,
church going girl that suffers from panic attacks and has to be fully prepared
to face what is in front of her. Some
may find her character weak, I am not one of them. Sometimes it’s the quiet strength that forms
the connection and she had that. Fearful
that she would somehow tarnish Wyatt with her faults she denies herself what
she wants more than anything..him!
When the truth finally
comes out, both Lacey and Wyatt have to battle their internal struggles,
addictions and fears to find what they both want..their own happy ever after!
I enjoyed this book,
it had angst, heart and I fell in love with both of these broken people and was
rooting them on all the way through..
