The plot dragged on for too long and the male character was pretty 1 dimensional.

I came away with a renewed appreciation for the men who serve our country and the families who wait for them at home. It truly is a sacrifice.
Dax was the most wonderful selfless hero I’ve read in a while, possibly ever. He’s Catherine Anderson-hero sweet. Just a mature man with a wonderful sense of humor.
Keely…well. I could understand her unwillingness to get involved romantically while still an uncertain wife. I could understand her guilt and pain at thinking that she betrayed her husband. But I do not understand her turning on Dax and accusing him of something so disgustingly underhanded when he was nothing but upfront and wonderful the entire time. I felt like the author just needed more angst to fill pages but it made me dislike the heroine.
I wish Nicole and Charles had gotten their own book. I would have loved to read the details of that story.

If you take into account the date of publication (1983) this is a decent romance. Overly dramatic? yes. Dated? Yes. But the story contained a sympathetic and, at times, poignant look at the limbo the wives of soldiers missing-in-action live in, even years after the fact. That part of the story was moving and worth thinking about.

Ugh. Sappy; tedious over-romanticized sex scenes; blah, blah. Not my style of book, read it because I found it on my bookshelves, not sure why I have it. Giving it away ASAP.
