A woman who can’t remember.
A soldier who wishes he could forget.Hunter Everett may have gotten out of the Special Forces, but the demons that haunt him aren’t as easy to escape.
His friends keep encouraging him to come stay at the Resting Warrior Ranch. After all, it was created for people like Hunter—soldiers with PTSD struggling to readjust to civilian life—but he isn’t interested.
It’s better, safer, for everyone if he just remains alone.
Until he discovers Jada Moyer—bruised, terrified, and with no memory of anything about her life. Cops and criminals alike seem to be gunning for this gentle beauty, but she doesn’t know why.
Hunter can’t leave her to face it on her own.
The more they learn, the deeper the rabbit hole goes. But one thing they both know for sure: the only way to create a future is for them both to face their pasts...
And hope they survive.
It’s always a pleasure to head back to Resting Warrior Ranch! The setting is picturesque, the cast of characters are good natured and the plot is healing and heartfelt. The undertaking of redeeming Jada’s character was a big pill to swallow, but Josie Jade did it well. I quickly found myself sympathizing with her plight and liking her as the person she currently was regardless of her past deeds. Hunter was easy to like as well, but I felt like his PTSD was downplayed a bit instead of shining a spotlight on coping mechanisms and help that could have deepened the depth of the book. I wanted more relationships development before they rode off into the sunset, but overall I enjoyed them whole heartedly and was pulling for them from start to finish.
Jada was a complex character, but she was what drew me into the book the most. She had a softness to her that I wasn’t expecting and it made her really easy to forgive.
I recommend this book as well as the entire series to anyone who enjoys a cast of former military who come together to support the building of their forever afters and helping other military transition to life after service.
