Publisher's summary

Hearts never heal easy, but they can heal...

Hank Schatz

One of my toughest decisions was to join the Army after graduating high school. My second toughest was to decide it was time to get. I wanted more than that life had to offer—namely the return of my humanity and a life beyond the pain that had leached into my soul during my deployments. Without a hint at what to do next, I said goodbye to my Army life and headed home to Missouri.

There were things I’d been hiding from my family for too many years—a secret that had nothing to do with my career as an Army Ranger. It was time I began to live my truth, but how to start, I didn’t know. I was aware of one thing for sure—I didn’t want to be lonely anymore.

I had a job I loved as a Special Education teacher at Carver Middle School in central Missouri. The kids were amazing, and their parents were supportive, unlike my last school where the parents believed their expensive tuition relieved them of their obligations to actually participate in their children’s education. Sadly, I was still alone, and I was getting a little long in the tooth to play the one-night game.

Unexpectedly, my diamond brought her brother to the Christmas Eve service at the local Lutheran church, and I found myself off-balance by the gorgeous man. I felt there was a sadness about him that made me want to hold him in my arms until his hurts healed. Of course, he was an Army Ranger, the toughest of the tough and the straightest of the straight. Between Ranger Hank, and his dog, Cosmo, I wanted things I couldn’t imagine were possible. Or were they?

This work of fiction is approximately 142,000 words in length and doesn’t end in a cliffhanger. It is the first book in the series entitled The Lonely Heroes Series.

Good story. Good narration.

This was a sweet romance with some very real relationship moments. The characters are brought to life in such a beautiful way that I wanted to share both tears and laughter with the characters.

Although this book is a romance, it has plenty of action to keep the adrenaline junkies like myself engaged. I appreciate how the author brought to light some very serious issues that are often shuffled to the side in daily life. Those issues were handled with care and attention to details.

I enjoyed both the writing by Kraemer and the narration by Ferraiuolo . I can't wait to read the rest of the series, and I hope there will be more audiobooks because it is hard to read through tears or fits of laughter.

Boring

Great narration, but was bored the whole time. Also pretty bland in the space department.

Left me wanting more!

I can’t wait to listen to part 2. Characters were goofy but interesting and I love a happy ending.

Fanfreakingtastic storyline

I read this when it first came out so I had to have it on audiobook. It is even better narrated!! The narrator brings this to life in much the same way I saw it while reading! Great job all!

JUST DULL

I couldn't finish this. The story and narrator were just too dull for my taste. There was also too much focus on looks and too much crying.
