Since the unexpected death of her beloved husband, Sky
Kendrick has been merely surviving day by day for the last two years until her
crazy, witty, takes- no- crap best friend pushes her to get out of town in
hopes of getting her life back. Sky is unsure she has the ability to do what
her friend is asking—get out of her rut and try to create a real life
again—even though it’s for the best. On her way to a sunny beach in Florida,
things don't go as she planned.
Fletcher Smith is an ex- Navy Seal. He has kept everyone at
a distance ever since he returned from his last mission. Now retired from the
military, he has his own private investigation company. Fletcher prefers
solitude and has no plans for that to change. So when a sassy-mouthed beauty
from Georgia suddenly, desperately needs his help, he hopes he can put the
harsh life of combat behind him and move ahead.
Can Sky and Fletcher heal, change, and reach out to each
other for a chance at love?

4 Stars
This is a good read about finding love after you've been
widowed and suffered a great loss. I
enjoyed reading it.
Skylar, or Sky, lost her husband because of a drunk driver,
2 years ago. She hasn't let him go
yet. She can't do it. Even thinking about dating someone else makes
her feel like she's cheating on him. She
wants to live again and start her life, she just doesn't know where to start or
how to even do that.
Her best friend Terri, has been with her through all of
this. She really wants the best for Sky
and knows that she just needs a push to jump start her living again. So, in order to do this, she springs a week
long trip to a resort in Florida for Sky to take alone. So that she can find herself again. She is a great best friend. And she is funny as all get out.
Sky knows that there's no arguing with her friend. So she goes.
There's a huge storm and she gets lost and is in a bad car
accident. But that car accident changed
her life!
Fletcher is an ex Navy Seal.
He has dealt with being the only survivor of his team on a mission gone
bad. He isn't living either. He is numb.
But he saves Sky and nurses her back to health. He comes alive again. They are actually pretty perfect for each
other.
"Because I want to help you. I feel as if I've known you my whole
life; I know how strange that sounds
because I know I've never seen or met you before. I can't shake this feeling. I'm drawn to you. There's this connection-don't you feel
it?"
These two bring life back to each other and help the other
heal so much.
This relationship isn't easy for them. He is a caveman alpha and she puts him in his
place. Besides the ghosts of the past,
they also have to deal with Heather, Fletcher's ex booty call that has turned
into a major psycho.
I really liked the characters and how the authors showed Sky
and Fletcher both finding themselves again.
Oh and you can't forget about Earl, or "old man". He is freaking awesome.
