Leah Holden, a military wife running from her problems, packs up her girls and moves to the Philippines in the hopes of salvaging her broken marriage to Mike. But living in such close proximity to so many enlisted men, Leah finds herself attracted to one who understands all of her needs.  This opens the doorway to potential heartache and devastation.Fay Guilian had me from the very first line!  Her descriptions of the people and places in the Philippines made me feel like I was right there. For instance, when Leah and her girls, stepped off the plane; "A leaden veil of warmth covered my face."  and ". . . the misty vapors rose from the cracks, seeping, as if volcanic fire was sizzling beneath the surface." The author has such a beautiful way of delivering an image in just the right words.What a lovely, lovely book. Pick this one up.  You won't be sorry!
