What a superb author and even more, what an exhilarating, gut wrenching and compelling story! The book moved me in strange and peculiar reasons. First of all, this is my first book from this author. I have heard of her before from previous authors but never took a risk on a new unfamiliar one but boy, was i glad I did! This author is phenomenal! Second, I am not really a fan of military romance solely because I've read a few before but was totally unimpressed. But the synopsis of this book captures my attention and the next thing I knew, I was engrossed. Forget meals, forget dishes and laundry, forget errands and the rest of the dingy house. I was captivated by the story hook, line and sinker. Honestly, I'm still a little on edge because I didn't sleep the entire night. At all! I read until 7:30 in the morning just to finish and devour the story of Swoon worthy Shane and sweet, blushing Jenn. Their story is not insta love. It developed tediously throughout the book and when they finally realized their feelings towards each other, BOOM! The sweetest love story I've read that stood the test of time through distance, heartaches, pain and deployments. It is a story that will remain with me forever.
Thank you, Teresa Mummert, for giving us a spell binding story. I, for one, is ignorant of the sacrifices of our troops. I just know they go to war to keep us safe but the depths of what a soldier goes through before he leaves for deployment and the pain of leaving loved ones behind not knowing if they will ever make it back, is an eye opener. I now fully understand them. When I see one, I will extend your mantra " Thank you for your service"..Its quite remarkable how this book changed my outlook in life....that you can lose someone tragically in a blink of an eye.
The story was raw and real, the plot realistic , the secondary characters are amazing and the main characters will tug at your heart strings in ways unimaginable. Mye entire face was puffy and swollen because this book brought out severe emotions from me and I have never experienced that before by reading a book. The overwhelming feelings I had reading the ordeal and journey of being a soldier and a military wife evoked tears of surmount proportions. I was crying along with them and I hurt. Jenn and Shane are real characters in our real world, for me. They symbolize the sacrifices each and every military couple and family goes through and the effects of war and brother lose to a fellow soldier.
So, grab a copy of this book. It was a roller coaster ride. You will laugh, cry, swoon, smile, gasp, be sad and upset, whine and wail but in the end, you will realize how the book affected you positively. T. Mummert, kudos to you and I am looking forward to reading all your books and share you with my sister who lives half way around the world so she can share your talents too.
