Review: Letters Home by Rebecca Brooke

****4 Stars****

 

This is a beautiful story of love and loss, it's about learning to be happy again the way you love would want you to be. This is the worst nightmare of every military family but such a beautiful story written brilliantly. I really did enjoy the story that Rebecca told and the characters she created. The letters were amazing and sweet and I'm going to say it again ... Beautiful!! This book in its essence is sweet and lovely..., it had an impact I'll remember it for a long time.
Nate was a military man and Danielle a lawyer, high school sweethearts they're in a fairytale kind of love! The kind where you think you'll never love again. Tanner was a medic in Nate's unit, he and Danielle become friends and grow close in their grief. They find solace and companionship in each other. Tanner is lovely and sweet and kind and makes Danielle happy when she never thought she would be again, he makes getting through the day a little easier. I love how she wrote this story and somehow through all the heartache managed to find love and a smile again.
Very well done Rebecca, I can't wait to read more from you!

Life is all about the jigsaw, right? Finding the different puzzle pieces to complete your very own picture. A career you love, a house to make a home, a lover to complete you, and keep you warm at night. Danielle Renton has a life, and she loves it. A recent law school graduate, she’d been floored when her boyfriend, Nate Lewis, enlisted during their sophomore year of college. At the time, she’d been concerned with what that meant for them as a couple, but in the years that followed, they’d learned to adapt to the logistics of an army relationship. But when life throws her a curve ball, how will she cope? Can she pick up the pieces and make her picture beautiful again? Or does she realize that, sometimes, the pieces can be too broken to fit back together. 
NOTE: Letters Home can be read as a standalone, but has a follow-up, Coming Home.
