Risa Grant is in a whirlwind, Vegas, an amazing man who just happens to be a marine, some amazing times. Then he gets down on one knee and her world shifts again and she is the happiest woman alive, so what if they haven’t exactly said they loved each other, she knows she’s happy whenever she’s with him.Montgomery, Monty, Davison has done more than enough tours overseas. As much as he loves being a Marine it’s time to not have to worry about sand everywhere. Then he meets Risa. He’s never been one for commitment as everyone seems to leave but somehow she’s different and after a lucky night in Vegas he pushes away fearful thoughts and gets down on one knee.Monty and Risa seem to have it all, yes they haven’t told each other that they love each other but they are engaged and even with him being deployed everything is going so well. Then both of their worlds are shaken by two very different events and neither is able to talk with one another. Unsure as to what’s going on Risa does the only thing she thinks she is able to do, run. When Monty chases her down will it be all about revenge? Or all about the love?Ms. Garbera brings us back to Marrietta via Vegas and it’s a trip you can never forget. She asks us to consider something we’ve all feared, our mortality. How can love go on when your world is fundamentally changed? Ms. Garbera allows us a bit of an exploration into this questions while still giving us a sweet and not so tender love story. Pick this up if you are looking for something with a bit more bite, a bit more reality, and some sweetness to go along with.
