Your Gift to Me by Bonnie Bartel Latino, Bob Vale
Set primarily in Hawaii, this Military SuperRomance celebrates the redemptive powers of love and laughter. Nearly ten years after Emily Ann Meade's husband died in a fiery Special Operations helicopter crash in the Gulf War, grief still follows her like a second skin shadow. Still single and emotionally guarded, she clings to her vow never to get involved with another man committed to a dangerous profession ... until she meets charismatic F-16 Viper pilot, Colonel Ted Foley, in Hawaii. Although she is attracted to Ted, he is assigned to a fighter wing that has recently lost two pilots in unexplained air crashes. Ted finds the elusive Emily to be like smoke--smoke that surrounds and envelopes him, but that he can't quite grasp. He is intrigued by the first woman who has made him feel alive since his wife died of breast cancer. Allowing her mind to wander through fields of dreams on which she can't afford the emotional mortgage, Emily lowers her barriers and discovers Ted's greatest virtue. He makes the ordinary feel sublime! Healing in shared confidences solidifies their relationship. As Emily becomes the vivacious woman she was before her husband's death devastated her spirit, her worst fear resurfaces. Ted's squadron suffers a third mysterious F-16 crash. Terrified that his life could be in danger, and she will be left to suffer the emotional consequences, she pushes him away . . . again. Their relationship shatters. Emily must find a path through her emotional minefields or risk never discovering that she's rejecting the only type of man to whom she is genuinely attracted . . . and a man whose life could be in danger! Ultimately Ted and Emily discover that grief, like joy, is finite, but love is infinite. Written from alternate he said/she said points of view, this full length novel will appeal to anyone, age eighteen to eighty, who requires both entertainment and substance in their leisure reading.
