What a wonderful story. The grace and charm that Ms Scott used to handle a difficult situation is brilliant. Vic and Nicole are both trying to keep their personal thoughts and fears from the other to show support for the deployment that Vic has coming up. During the deployment Vic continues to be his usual jokester to help defuse the tension, but in the back of his mind he has a bad feeling. Nicole, like any other military wife, is nervous and worried and that intensifies when she does not hear from Vic as often as in prior deployments. A co-worker of Nicole’s is a returned vet and tells her often the lack of communication is from not really knowing how to talk about what is happening and/or not wanting to cause more worry- that helps a bit. The day-to-day life of the families and the service men and women is hard and comes through in this story.  When Vic’s bad feeling comes to life, Ms Scott continues to show compassion, grace and skill. Vic and Nicole’s love is a thing of legend and inspiring. When you read this have tissues near.I received an advanced reader copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
