I received this book from Netgalley for an honest review.It’s not the first book I read written by this author and it convinces me that I really enjoy reading her novels. This one is everything I was looking for and even more.I wanted a sweet, light and agreable love story, something that would evolve slowly but surely with likeable characters and I had my fill while reading Falling For Her Soldier. And even if it was obvious where it was heading, I loved every pages of the book, enjoyed reading how it was heading and playing out and how the characters were changing. I was also very eager to see the big finale and know how Ellie would react to THE revelation.Speaking of the revelation, I would have preferred some more drama or maybe something that would show some more how badly Ellie had been burnt before and how it impacted on her present life with men. While it’s not overlooked, I think it’s under-developped. Of course, it’s a matter of personal taste.But Ellie and Charlie “Hunter” are great characters. I love both of them and it’s not that often. Both are strong, fun and interesting to follow throughout the novel and they never bored me. And seriously, it’s impossible to not have a tiny crush on the hot and devilishly sweet Charlie “Hunter”.Ellie is also a female character very sweet, fun and loveable. Sometimes, in this genre of books, the female is either too bitter or too nave and it’s annoying, but here Ellie is neither. It’s the kind of character you’d like to make a friend of if it makes any sense.So I had a great time reading this book and I can’t wait to read more from this author. In the genre, this author is becoming unavoidable for me.
