Can't wait to read more! [heart]" - carolinegraced "I'm so hooked already" - a_lost_feather "From the summary I had a lot of expectation of a one night stand, one and done type of thing with drama to follow up in later chapters. What I got was something different. The beautiful descriptions of the beach town made me feel warm and cozy and kept me reading until these two characters were introduced. I thought their meeting was innocent and sweet, not what I was expecting. It was really good." - CourtneyPeterman0

World War 2 is over and the world seems to sigh in relief. Nicole (an American nurse stationed in Italy) embarks on her journey home after saving countless lives as well as holding the hands of soldiers as they pass on. Alexei (a rough, hardened Soviet Soldier part of a liaison group stationed in Italy) quickly falls for the quick witted, brash nurse born to privilege and wealth that the other soldiers refer to as Angel. Will his healer become the love of his life? Or will their differences part them for good? (I do not use AI for cover art or writing. All ideas are original)
