Two years ago, Gabe Thompson stood in the desert of Afghanistan and watched the love of his life drive away. When his tour of duty ended six months later, she wasn’t waiting. Now Gabe’s ready to go after the one thing his life is missing – the woman he’s never been able to forget.
Twenty-year-old Alexis Garcia rues the day she decided to volunteer for a UN mission to Afghanistan. The sexy, exasperating soldier she met there nearly destroyed her carefully constructed life with the boy next door. She’s spent two years trying to forget Gabe, working to show her parents and her boyfriend that she knows where she belongs.
But when Gabe shows up at Alexis’s door, complete with tattoos, a Harley and enough attitude to start another war, everything she’s tried to conceal could be exposed, starting with her heart.
My Review:
This is a definite page turning book, there is so much that happens, it is un put downable.
Gabe and Lexi fall for each other in Afghanistan, they have to separate because of his job, but they pledge they will wait for each other and that their love was true.
After two years Gabe has not heard one word from Lexi even though he had sent countless letters, emails and skyped messaged her, every moment he could his love for her remained true, his tour of duty finished more than 18 months previous and he has gained further education since then and is ready to step out into the big wide yonder.
So he decides to go and find her and create a life for himself in her home town.
Lexi is shocked to bits to see him standing at her front door, and it stirs up all the feelings that she thought she had hidden so well for the past 2 years.
It is not plain sailing for Gabe and lexi there are uptdeen hurdles the face along the way and Gabe gets to find out the true reason for Lexi absentness, and they try to mend bridges.
I cannot say anymore or it will spoil it for everyone, but this is a must read.
4 Stars from me.
A little about the author:
Selena Laurence lives in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains and spends a hell of a lot of time at soccer games, on her laptop, and reading. She requires a Mocha Latte every day to function, keeps a goldendoodle at her feet most of the time, and has more kids than she knows what to do with. Her husband, Mr. Laurence, spends as much time as he can at the office and the gym in order to avoid the kids, the dog, the laptop and the reading, but he always shows up for the soccer games, and he makes a mean Mocha Latte.
