    The book was sweet until there just had to be a cliffhanger. The book was going good until the ending.

    Great book, but I have so many mixed emotions about it. I guess with Max still coming to her and just maybe, because my husband is retired military and I have seen a few who's husband life was taken for our freedom and in no time, the wife has moved on and I guess my heart really bleeds when I see the soldiers parents, who will forever love their son and not even get the flag or really left with only, I'm sorry for your loss.

    Let me first start with the fact that this had creepy similarities to my life! My husband and I have been at Fort Drum for 14 months. Soon after we got here, we found out we were pregnant. Our son shares initials with their son. Our anniversary is also October 11th! Being an army wife, I definitely cried a lot during this book. But after the first couple of pages, I was HOOKED, I finished it in just a day! I even have a couple of friends reading it now! Can't wait to start number 2!

    I couldn't even get through the first chapter! The writing felt like when you listen the close caption descriptions

    Overall it is a good read. Downloaded it for free so can't complain there. However I hate that there are inconsistencies with the storyline. I hate to write about the story in this review but I am so frustrated. For example, the woman's husband dies when their baby is my even ONE year old. Later in the book, when the baby is now FOUR years old, it describes the scene as her FIRST Christmas since her husband passed. That is impossible, since it should be at least the 3rd Christmas without him. The timeline inconsistencies caused me to stop reading the book! Frustrating and wish the storyline/timeline and book in general was proofread!

    Don't bother. The trilogy is a gimmick. I schemed this book but wasn't interested enough to read the rest of the series. I read the other free book about Bobby, the boxer. This book told me everything I needed to know about the ending to Shattered Dreams and the author's thoughts on cliffhanger books is pretty much laid out. Sorry this author isn't worth my time and these books shouldn't be cliffhangers.
