From Barnes and Noble:
"Kelly Jacobs watched with pride as her husband, Nick, triumphed in his demanding SEALs military training. When he dies on a mission three years later, she is wounded to the soul-yet copes with the determination of a SEAL's wife; bracing herself to keep going despite the loss. In return, Nick's comrades watch over Kelly as part of their family. Joe Baker had been leading the team when Nick was killed. He takes the loss especially hard: Nick had led him to Christ and was his best friend. When Nick dies, Joe suffers survivor's guilt. He takes care of Kelly and plans to find her a new husband. He figures he owes her that-he just hadn't counted on falling in love with her. As Kelly struggles to move on and Joe is torn between loyalty to Nick and love for Kelly, God provides surprising answers to their dilemmas and reveals the beauty of the truth that "a friend loves at all times."I couldn't wait to get home and blog about this book. It's been a long time since I've wanted to read and read and keep reading.
I was a little bit skeptical about reading it because first thing was that Kelly is a war widow. I wasn't sure if I was quite ready for that yet. BUT, I read alot of firefighter books with DH was a fireman, so I figured it would be ok.
I have been wanting to read Henderson for a while now. I sort of gathered that she was similar to Terri Blackstock, and I love her.
I was not disappointed. She does a great job developing characters and building suspense. I loved these people. I loved how she worked the Word into this book.
There was lots of great build up that had me coming back for more. She did a great job of making the people real. I felt like I got to know them.
I highly recommend this book. I'm going to finish this series and start on the next.
