![]() ![]() ![]() This worked for me because both were keeping time avoiding life but they bring each other alive and back into the rush. A story or survival and love.Īs the story heats up emotions getting messy and alive the prose does fill out more, leaning a little towards purple compared to what has come before. When they act on their desires it feels deeper, skipping candlelight to go straight to the heart. It's a story of healing of getting to know each other. Slow moving in many ways I'm not sure this can be classed as romance, it's not until past halfway attraction comes into play. Caring came with attitude rather than sentimentality. From there we're taken to the country a la 'The Secret Garden' 'Beauty and the Beast' and countless gothic romances yet this never felt like a gender switch, it progressed naturally while keeping the characters real. It gave a gritty feel for a story of ex-soldiers in difficult times, the main character unapologetically male. The beginning felt sparsely written, no flowery words or angst. No-one is perfect, the ending feels a well earned happy rather than idealised fantasy, not to spoil but I really liked how things worked out or them.Ĭontinue to love this book and hope from more by this author (as of Jan a return to writing is promised! :D:D ) ![]() It has a sense of time, struggles and strength with characters you can believe in. ![]() Two men surviving war and family, healing each other in turn. This book REALLY deserves more attention. ![]()
