Publisher Description
In this moving sequel to Even Now, Emily Anderson, now 20, is attending college on a soccer scholarship. Then she meets the man who changes everything for her: Army reservist Justin Baker. Their tender relationship, founded on a mutual faith in God and nurtured by their trust and love for each other, proves to be a shining inspiration to everyone they know, especially Emily’s reunited birth parents, Lauren Gibbs and Shane Galanter.
Lauren and Shane still struggle to move past their opposing beliefs about war, politics, and faith. Shane believes it’s possible; Lauren doesn’t. So she says a painful good-bye to her long-ago love and returns to her job as a war correspondent in Afghanistan. Both Lauren and Shane are shattered, believing that this time their relationship may have ended forever.
Then tragedy sends shockwaves through all their lives. Can Lauren and Shane set aside their opposing views so that love, God’s love, might win, no matter how great the odds?

"Another tear jerker. This one was close to home--literally. It is set right here at Fort Lewis and the story reminded me of a friend lost in the war. I probably wouldn't recommend it to my military friends unless they were looking for catharsis and have a box of tissues handy."
— Heather (4 out of 5 stars)

" 4 1/2 stars<br/><br/>This is such a sweet story that i wish i read in high school. People should read it just so they know what soldiers families and wives go through. Really, it opened my eyes. Warning you might need a kleenex. "

" Not my favorite Kingsbury book. As previous reviewers have mentioned, she spends a LOT of time talking about the war in Iraq, the feelings about it, etc, and precious little time developing the characters. But... it was an okay book, and I might read it again at some point in the future. "
— Stephanie, 3/16/2011 -

" Well, I learned a lesson here...don't read war stories when your husband is deployed. Man, I cried like a baby....through like half the book. But, the story was good, and at least it ended up happy. I was worried there for a bit. "
