Dedication:
To my husband, for reminding me every day that laughter
is the glue that holds a marriage together. To my sisters
for their help with the medical aspects of this book. And
to all our children, for teaching us that the true challenge
of motherhood is letting go.
---------------------
Dear Readers:
Marriages are so often challenging. But marriages between
military members are even more demanding than most. Long
separations, dramatically different experiences, and the
trauma of war can thwart even the most loving couple. Add
the responsibility of a child to the mix and the difficulties
may seem insurmountable. But sometimes, love conquers all.
Major Anthony Garitano and Major Kristen Clark have more
than their fair share of obstacles to overcome. His deployment
to a harsh land far away from her duty station has taken
its toll. War has changed him. And motherhood has changed
her. But when the two reunite, joining forces to save their
daughter from a revenge-seeking terrorist, they rediscover
the power of love.
I hope you enjoy this story of two officers who refuse to
let their dedication to the military overwhelm their dedication
to each other.
