Force’s sobering standalone is a tribute to those who must wait behind as loved ones deploy in the military. Twenty-one-year-old college graduate Ava Lucas meets and falls in dizzying love with serviceman John West. They spend two blissful years together, cocooned in a world all their own. Remarkably—and implausibly—Ava has no idea John is vulnerable to deployment until the day he packs his “go bag,” kisses Ava goodbye, and heads overseas, cutting off all contact. She searches for him to no avail. Again, remarkably, Ava stays put for five years awaiting John’s return. Then she moves back to her family home in New York, begins a new life and new job, and finds new love. She’s happily engaged to marry a wonderful man, but the specter of what might have become of John still haunts her—and then he returns. Force’s treatment of grief in a state of limbo, not knowing closure, is what makes this otherwise unremarkable book worth reading. (Oct.)
Ava faces an impossible choice between the man she yearned for and the one who put her broken heart back together...
Her boyfriend deployed five years ago to chase the world's most wanted terrorist. She never heard from him again and had no choice but to pick up the shattered pieces of her life and start over. She falls in love with her sister's brother-in-law, who has known his own heartache. These two fragile souls take tentative steps toward a whole new future together.
And then the terrorist is captured.
A video is released that shows the commandos who led the raid. She sees HIM for the first time in six years. And when he comes home a national hero, all he wants is to see her.
Ava faces an impossible choice in FIVE YEARS GONE.
