Just Once: A Novel by Karen Kingsbury
5.0
“After all, you were mine way before you were ever his.”
I finished this is a day and a half. I never do that. I couldn’t put this one down. The story was so beautiful. Irvel and Hank’s is the perfect romance story. Friends to lovers. But had to go through so many obstacles along the way to find eachother. From dating other people and then both going to war and thinking each of them have been killed. But it didn’t end there. Alzheimer’s was another war they needed to face. It felt very real. It was relatable. My grandfather has dementia and he was fixated on telling his war stories too and was set on getting home to his mom and dad. I felt such a connection to this story.
