Even
war heroes need a little help sometimes...
After spending years fighting for his country and too damn long learning to
navigate life with a prosthetic leg, Grant Silver returns to Silver Island to
figure out a future he couldn’t fathom without fatigues and a gun in his hand.
He’d almost forgotten how a man could suffocate from the warmth and caring
community in which he’d grown up, and if that weren’t bad enough, his buddies’
beautiful and far-too-chipper younger sister won’t stop flitting into his life,
trying to sprinkle happy dust everywhere she goes.
As a cancer survivor, Jules Steele knows better than to count on seeing
tomorrow. She doesn't take a single moment for granted, and she isn’t about to
let a man who used to be charming and full of life waste the future he’s been
blessed with. She's determined to get through to him, even if it takes a few
steamy kisses...
Can a man who resents the hand he’s been dealt and a woman who spends her
days grateful for every little thing find true love in each other’s arms—or are
their differences stronger than both of them? Find out in this funny, sexy,
heartfelt romance, and fall in love with Grant and Jules on the sandy shores of
Silver Island, home to coffee shops, boat races, and midnight rendezvous.

Wow, this story will come at you from every direction and get you in the feels,
one way or the other.
Grant is a survivor, he spent years fighting for his country until the
unthinkable happened. Now he is back home on Silver Island and trying to live
each day without hating everyone and everything.
Jules is a survivor, a cancer survivor, and knows that there may not be any
more tomorrows. So she lives each day to the fullest and is thankful for each
one she gets to share with family and friends.
Jules remembers Grant as a person charming and full of life and she will not
let him throw away the second chance he was given, even if he is missing a leg.
As they spend time together, he begins to see that there is something about her
that makes him want to be close to her always. As their feelings grow for each
other, he is seeing that things might not be so bad on Silver Island after all,
as long as Jules is by his side.
Can Grant give living life on Silver Island a chance? Will Jules make him see
that life is worth living if you have family and friends? What happens with
Jules and Grant if his team calls him back?
I love Melissa Foster's books, she has a way of drawing you into a story as if
you are part of it and part of the families. I highly recommend any of her
books, doesn't matter where you start, just read them. You will not be
disappointed.

4.5 stars of fun and frolics combatting darkness!
This is the second book in this particular series, but rest assured that it has
links to all of Melissa Foster's other novels, and you will meet up with old
friends and see new connections forming along the way. I love how I can be
re-engaged so quickly in the happy places which are always on offer.
I loved Jules' character and nature from the moment the book starts. She is
utterly upbeat and does all she can to cheer up others with thoughtful gestures
and kind words. But newly returned, and forever altered from war, Grant is a
challenge. And for once, Jules finds that she really needs to succeed in making
him happy, because she finds that her happiness is tied up with him. Thus
starts a mission which means so much to her, and which Grant is fighting with
all the will that he can. Not only is she his best friend's little sister, but
she is far, far too good for him.
So much goodness in this story, I found myself willing them on through the
difficult times and reaching for a tissue (I know to always have one close by
for a Foster book!), and huge beaming smiles emerged as the whole thing took a
turn for the very much better.
So if you need an excuse to escape from the every day and find yourself on an
island watching two people find themselves and each other... this is just the
place you need to be!
