BLOGS REVIEW
First off, this is the first book I have read by this author and after reading this please tell me this is going to be a series cause not only do you fall in love with Lillian and Shane, but you fall in love with those other HOT military men in the 707. This story is told from third person dual POV and allows your feelings to feel FREE after you wipe your eyes numerous times. Be still your heart reading this story and BRAVO to those spouse's and military men and women cause being in a relationship and on tour has got to be one of the hardest tasks to handle.
Lillian and Shane were in a society (rich) and they didn't belong in that world and had dreams of leaving that world behind. They were two BF who withheld their feelings for each other so that the other could explore their dream. This may become their BIGGEST regret ever.
Twelve years of heartache and torture is a long time to endure what occurred in this story. Reading the synopsis you are left wondering whose fault it was for Shane's death. Wow! Talk about a gasp worthy moment when that person has to unveil the shadow and protect her from what they were trying to protect her all along with. Holy smokes! I think I would faint, wake up and faint again.
Lillian made something of herself and created what would have been Shane's dream and that is so touching. The feelings that were left unspoken where spoken in her work. Add some twists in the society she tries to avoid at all costs and you are left hoping no one interrupts you, that for once you wish your train is delayed so you can keep reading to see what is going to happen. That was me, lol and it didn't, but that is OK cause I made sure to finish that book the same day. It hooks you from page one until the very end.
There's a BOOM moment that some may or may not agree with. This is all I will say about that, but I totally agree with it and it needed to be on their own terms even though it was kept quite for as long as possible. You are definitely on the edge of your seat reading this, wiping your eyes and then biting those nails. Oh my if you loved the 707 guys you will totally fall for the A's! Whose the A's? Read the book cause I think you will agree.
The only thing I found to be a little upsetting is the ending. It gave us what we needed and then The End. No epilogue or lead into another possible book. I am hoping that was intentional and while we know what will occur to a point it would be nice to hear about it. Thinking it was geared to be in another book, I hope whether it is on them or the crew. I'll take it!. This is a story about getting a chance at love being in the military. May this book set you Free after your heart heals. haha :)
