***3.75 stars (rounded-up)*** 
 Well, fuck me if this wasn't a more realistic read. I have to say that these two men really got the ass end of the stick. Travis and Clint both suffer from PTSD; each due to their own traumas they were involved in while in charge of an aircraft. Then to add-on top of that Travis suffers from chronic back pain, while Clint is a recovering alcoholic due to not being able to disclose his mission. To ANYONE! Really, I just wanted to wrap the two in bubble wrap and tend to them. 
 However, these two men keep going, taking one day at a time. And by good love of all that is amazing, they find each other. Not only that, but they are good for one another; like really good for one another. 
 While I did enjoy reading Travis and Clint's story, I did not love it. I cannot exactly put a finger as to why, just that it didn't suck me in as it did in the previous book. It didn't have extreme highs of lows, it just was. Maybe that was the problem. 
 Last but not least, the ending seemed a bit rushed. It was like, 'no we can't one minute', followed by 'oh yes we can' and wrapping it up with an, 'okay let's give it a try'. I swear, if you blink you might miss it! Honestly, it could have done without the "no we can't" moment by Travis. Needless to say, Travis and Clint end on a HFN note leaving it up to the reader to make their own assumptions. I wonder though. If there is a third book, the author might give us with a lovely wrap-up like she did in this book with Sean and Paul wedding. Time will only tell.
