I’m not sure how to feel about this book. Luke needed therapy. And it felt like Harper forgave him too easily. The third act breakup dragged on and felt more heart wrenching than necessary. She wanted to leave town, but she decided to drag it out a few weeks to torture herself some more?
I liked the characters (mostly. Luke pissed me off too frequently, and the rest of the time was sex scenes). Yeah, this one wasn’t my favorite.
Additional TW/CW:
Graphic: Separation during deployment (if you don’t think this could be a trigger then you’ve never been with someone who was away on a rough deployment).
Moderate: Grief over death of spouse; the grief isn’t written in a very graphic way, but it is a frequent topic/main theme. IED explosion, loss of limb and recovery, unrealistic journey adjusting to prosthetic.

This book was such an emotional rollercoaster! It’s about living your life after loss, it’s about finding your home, it’s about opening up your heart. Dealing with grief is different for anyone, and I felt Luke’s struggles in my toes. I can’t even imagine going through his loss. Harper and Luke are amazing together, and I’m happy to have read their story!
