3 Stars.  This book was not meant for me.

The book felt very juvenile.  In the beginning I thought that they'd been together as adults and had lived and experienced life together.  But it turns out they were best friends but only dated for a short summer?  I just didn't get the emotional depth. I wish we hadn't found out about Wyatt until they'd met again at the airport.  Would have made it more believable for me. Adding to the juvenile feel were all the flashbacks to *only* their teenage years.  I don't mind flashbacks, it's how we get a good second chance romance, but they were basically kids.

Secondly, absolutely nothing was realistic about Wyatt's military experience.  Except for basic training at Fort Benning.  As a former army employee at a basic training unit and being a military spouse to a combat veteran, it was not real.  Enlisted Soldiers don't fly planes. Basic training is basic training, not survivalist school. You know what's also in basic training?  Radio communications. The whole plot line of his military experience pulled me out of the book entirely. 

The book was written well, just not a believable plot line.  

 

I received a free e-ARC of this book from NetGalley and Avon and Harper Voyager publishing in exchange for an honest review.
