Wonderfully written, captivating, heart-breaking love story. Yes, illicit, not pedophilia. This was a beautiful and sad love story. The author is amazing, the characters were written strongly. I actually felt as if the story took place in the 60's with the way the military base life was described and the way David (spouse) treated his wife and the mention of the country club life-style. The book just had that feel to it or perhaps it's because I am not really familiar with the "military family"? Or maybe because in a "military family" time has stood still? Whatever. I loved this love story, hated the characters I was supposed to despise and felt only somewhat weird that Sebastian was only 17. The May-December relationship was not gross or perverted to me, it happens quite often in reverse. They were in love and I was rooting for this doomed relationship. I am just starting book 2.
