In a matter of seconds my entire world changed, and it was
in that moment that I stopped living and simply began to exist.
In my grief, I sent a letter to the first boy I ever loved.
I hoped in writing it I’d find some peace from the nightmare I was living, some
solace in my anger.
I didn’t expect him to write back. I wasn’t prepared for his
words, and I certainly wasn’t ready for the impact this soldier would have on
my life. A deep-rooted hate transformed into friendship, and then molded into a
love like I’d never known before.
Sergeant Devin Ulysses Clay did what I couldn’t: he put the
shattered pieces of my heart back together, restoring my faith in humanity and
teaching me how to live again.
But now that I’m whole, I have a decision to make. Do I
return to my life as I knew it and the fiancé I left behind, or do I walk away
from it all for the only man to ever break my heart?
***
I’ve been living in hell, but you won’t hear me complain.
These men depend on me, as I do them, and this brotherhood
is the only family I’ve ever known.
The Army saved me from a callous mother and a life on the
wrong side of the tracks that was quickly spiraling out of control. So unlike
most of the men in my platoon, going home wasn’t something I longed for.
I was content overseas, spending my days defending this
country that gave me my life back. Fighting became my new normal … until her.
A letter from Katie Devora—a letter that I almost didn’t
open. Her words put a fire back inside of me that I didn’t know I’d lost. She
gave me hope during a time when I was fighting every day just to stay alive,
and now it’s time I fight for her.
I love, love, FLOVED this book. It was heartbreaking and
heartwarming all at the same time. The writers did a fantastic job of grabbing
me from the first page. I was so wrapped up in the story and characters that I
could not put the book down. I read it in one sitting and did not regret it for
one second, even at 2AM.
This book will take you through all of the feels.... more
than once. This book will be one of those that will stay with you for along
time. Book hangover for sure!
The 2 authors meshed their styles together seamlessly. I
can't wait to see more from both KL Grayson and BT Urruela both separately and
together!
