Kelly is in danger, and Joe may not get there in time.

I LOVED IT! This was my fourth time re-reading it and it was just as good as the first time I read it!! I immediately fell in love with Kelly and Joe. They are perfect for each other. Joe especially is really swoon worthy! The plot developed really well and Henderson wove in the faith elements really realistically. I felt that the faith aspects weren’t as strong and convincing as the O’Malley series, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it. It wasn’t too ‘preachy’ and it made me think, which is always good 🙂
My favourite part of the book was the Navy SEALs!! Henderson has done a excellent job of making it believable and I could tell that she had done her research! Navy SEALs and other special op. teams have always fascinated me and it was really interesting to see some of the story from the perspective of the person waiting for a SEAL to come home (Kelly). I cried alongside her as Nick died and cried happy tears for her and Joe.
I have re-read the whole series multiple times (that’s how much I enjoyed it!), and I have to admit that Joe and Kelly’s story is my favourite!
I would very highly recommend this novel!!
I loved this book and the rest of the series! Dee Henderson does a great job of getting you to relate to her characters. The plot is fresh, the story is exciting, and the writing is superb. One of my favorite authors, and she doesn’t disappoint here.
