A Soldier's Wish by N.R. Walker

4.0

The angel has arrived in California. It's the Vietnam Era and while the angel's magic may not be needed for the romance in this one, she certainly brings some much needed comfort for a soldier wounded in battle. This one is the most emotional story so far in the series, and some parts are absolutely heart-wrenching. It's also a thoroughly compelling read with a beautiful love story. Gary and Richard are complete opposites in so many ways, but at the same time, they fit perfectly. Gary is everything Richard needs both during and after the war, and the author does an excellent job of showing the turmoil Richard experiences and the toll it takes on him emotionally, and it's done with the utmost respect due a soldier. Everything, from Gary and Richard's first meeting, to their time at Woodstock, the letters back and forth, to finally being together as Richard heals is wonderfully written and kept me turning the pages.
