Love Him Back

Chesney longs to leave her troubled past behind... After leaving an abusive relationship, Chesney Ward craves more than her small town has to offer. Seeking escape and adventure, she joins the military, but when she arrives at her first duty station in England, she meets Zane, a sergeant with secrets of his own. Zane thought no woman would ever make him want to settle down... Staff Sergeant Zane Thomas, a Special Forces airman, has had his heart put through the wringer. His ex-girlfriend cheated on him with his best friend, and he's been acting the playboy ever since. Then he meets Chesney during a briefing and is immediately drawn to the small town girl with a big heart. Her southern accent and honey-brown eyes make him forget how to breathe. A passionate encounter leads to more than either bargained for... Chesney and Zane finally give in to each other, then Zane learns he will be deployed immediately for a year-long assignment. Their new relationship shatters, and he is reminded of why he didn't want anything serious in the first place. When Zane's deployment ends, he returns home, but Chesney is gone. After a long search, Zane locates Chesney, and they have a chance to reconnect and try to rekindle what they once had. But Chesney is faced with sharing a life-altering secret-and the real reason she left England without a proper goodbye. With PTSD and lies endangering their future, will Chesney be able to love him back, or is Zane too broken to be saved?
