3.5 stars 
 This book had amazing potential, but it just kind of fell flat for me. The most intriguing part of this whole book is the blurb itself. Even though I did like it, I felt like I was sitting around waiting for.......something, ANYTHING! 
 I felt like this book could've easily been expounded on by spending a little bit of time with Grace and Noah when she was his pen pal and he was deployed. Reading their letters at the beginning of each chapter was the highlight of the book for me. I think that I would've connected more with Grace having a better understanding of her family dynamic and her heartbreak when Noah cut off his communication with her. 
 I feel like an Epilogue can make or break a book. This one had almost no benefit to the actual story. There was no closure or signs of the future. It was just unnecessary information. 
 I am not giving up though!! I knew that the first book was the lowest rated, but I'm very much looking forward to Bo's story. Diving in to Unspoken!
