The emotions stirring in her heart for the former Army colonel war with her feelings for Dave. Can she let go of the past and embrace her future before it's too late?

on Amazon:The sweetness of the relationship between "Gunner" and April reminded me of a first crush and the nervousness and excitement of exploring a new romance. Lea Kirk has a way with scenes and words that bring the characters to life and you, as the reader, feel a part of their journies and their triumphs and challenges.
While this could be a standalone book, I highly recommend reading it after reading Prophecy so you can explore the storyline and characters more in depth. You will not be disappointed.
on Goodreads:This is a feel good short story that focuses on the ‘human’ moments of living in a space colony. While the backstory is sad, the author stays focused on the now, which has a kind soldier walking beside a lovely, but very pregnant young woman who he once rescued from aliens.
This story is heartfelt, sweet and touching. It captures several important moments in life and leaves you happier than when you began.
on BookBub:There are times when you just want a bit of delight, an "amuse bouche" to start your day or as a pick-me-up. This story is SciFi and deals with a post-apocalyptic world but is a sweet romance at heart and succeeds on every level! Although a stand-alone tale, it is also linked with a universe Ms Kirk's deft prose invites me to explore (Prophecy Series). I was thoroughly enthralled.
Sometimes you just want something light, sweet and quick, and this fit the bill. Very enjoyable.
