Review: Good start but needs more
Rating: 4 out of 5

While I loved the start to this story, I felt as though it fell apart in a few places in the second half of the book. The premise of the scarred war hero who is shut down and wounded physically and emotionally and is brought back to life through love is one that I love. It is done well here as Patrick has all the makings of a great character. Ellen seems a perfect fit for him. I found their relationship goes from lust to love a little too quickly and could have been more developed. The second half of the book felt a little jumbled and rushed. While I would still recommend this story, it could have been so much more if the author had taken more time to let us get to know the characters more and fully flushed out the details of the supporting characters and the plot more thoroughly. It would have allowed me to become more emotionally involved in the novel.
