Memorial Day Celebration

Happy Memorial Day

Memorial Day isn't a holiday in England but we do have our Armed Forces Day (Veterans Day) in June and Remembrance Day (Poppy celebration) in November.
I love the spirit of Memorial Day and how grateful US citizens are for their armed forces.
I wanted to celebrate these brave men and women in literature as well as in real life, and of course offer a celebration giveaway. You can enter the giveaway here later on today!

There are a lot of Army, Navy and Airforce fiction stories out there but one of my favourites is the sweet and emotional New Adult romance Full Measures by Rebecca Yarros.

What are your favourite Armed Forces themed fiction books?

What they say: Three knocks can change everything…

"She knew. That’s why Mom hadn’t opened the door. She knew he was dead."

Twenty years as an army brat and Ember Howard knew, too. The soldiers at the door meant her dad was never coming home. What she didn’t know was how she would find the strength to singlehandedly care for her crumbling family when her mom falls apart. 

Then Josh Walker enters her life. Hockey star, her new next-door neighbor, and not to mention the most delicious hands that insist on saving her over and over again. He has a way of erasing the pain with a single look, a single touch. As much as she wants to turn off her feelings and endure the heartache on her own, she can’t deny their intense attraction.

Until Josh’s secret shatters their world. And Ember must decide if he’s worth the risk that comes with loving a man who could strip her bare.

My review!
