What to expect
An uplifting and emotional read from bestselling author Rachel Dove
A broken soldier. Shattered lives. A second chance worth fighting for?
Trauma surgeon Kate Harper knows how to keep her head in the most high pressure of situations. Although back home in England her marriage is falling apart, out in the desert she’s doing what she does best - saving lives. Until she meets Captain Thomas Cooper.
With his life hanging by a thread, it’s down to Kate to save Cooper’s life. But Cooper doesn’t want to be saved...
Arrogant, damaged and broken, Cooper thinks his life’s over, and he only blames one person - Kate. But when the tables are turned and Kate needs his help, Cooper has to put aside his anger and support the woman who ruined his life.
But in helping Kate, Cooper is given another chance at life. And maybe another chance at love. Because this isn’t the end for Cooper and Kate. It’s only beginning…
Please note: This is a re-issue of The Long Walk Back
A heartbreaking but heartwarming story about courage and dedication when the odds are against you. Perfect for fans of Carrie Elks and Colleen Hoover.
