PoppyLove and war. Two words that should have little association, but to me the two go hand in hand. Both are a tragedy. They rip you open and spit you out. The war killed my husband, Connor, shattered my will to live, and took my best friend. Brandon may not have physically died in that war, but his soul did. And now we’re left to pick up the wreckage. Expected to move on when all that is left is the ruins of a life we once had.Brandon
War. It took everything from me, even myself. When you’re only able to exist, death seems like a blessing. Pain…a welcome distraction. I ran from everything associated with my past, and then she found me, fighting, drowning myself in whisky, trying to forget. She reminds me of Connor, of what I’ve lost—what we’ve lost. In the midst of destruction, she’s a salvation I don’t deserve.
I shouldn’t love him.
I shouldn’t love her.
Love is a war we never should have fought.

Connor, Brandon and Poppy are an usually family built out of friendship that ends in heartbreak. This book had me on an emotional roller coaster. I cried, I was happy I also felt the pain and heartbreak in this book. The authors did an amazing job delivering this book and writing about some with PTSD. Yes it a fictional book but they did their research to make you understand how it can literally be crush by this. It gives you a whole new perspective of PTSD!
Brandon, Connor and Poppy are the main characters of this story and when Brandon and Connor were sent to fight in the war things change dramatically Connor makes Brandon promise if anything happens to him to take care of his wife Poppy. That’s a tall order for anyone to do under normal circumstances but while dealing with PTSD it a entirety different game.
I have read many books by Stevie and LP (Nicole Lynne) But I must say this is my absolute favorite.
Absolutely amazing when I read a book and feel like I’m watching a movie is always the best books.
i was given this book for an honest review
Because sometimes characters need to be flawed.P.S. Stevie’s greatest fear is the impending zombie apocalypse. Think about it: swarming armies of decaying, oozing corpses stumbling around with clicking teeth, trying to eat your face. Nothing about that is good. NOTHING!
Lauren Lovell is an indie author from England.She suffers from a total lack of brain to mouth filter and is the friend you have to explain before you introduce her to anyone, and apologise for afterwards.
She’s a self-confessed shameless pervert, who may be suffering from slight peen envy.LP loves to hear from readers so please get in touch.
