As I read "Until There Was You" I wondered about the author's wealth of information concerning things military. It wasn't until I finished, and I read her bio that I learned of her own personal military experience. Claire and Evan with different backgrounds and hang ups as well as personalities dealt with the frustration of leadership and being responsible for lives of men and women during their deployment but met their duties from different viewpoints. Each struggled with the personalities and control rendered by officers of higher rank, some of these controlling and focused on classroom training, others more in tune with their troop members and focused on physical training designed to replicate real life war time experience. It was these types of conflict that brought Claire and Evan together in a sweet romance that was hindered by their different philosophies, but the romance grew as each respected the other for their loyalty to the military as well as their personal attraction to one another. Very enjoyable read. I enjoy military romance plots and this was accurate and real.
