Thirty-one year old Kate Fitzgerald is guardian and
protector of her 18 year old half-sister Tenley Miles.
Kate's mother and fiancé, both famous singers, died in a bus
accident when Tenley was only 6. The darling of country
western and a singing idol, Tenley travels the country
performing. Kate is also her publicist who has arranged a
performance in Afghanistan with the USO following a melt-
down by Tenley voicing negative comments about the military,
and to also remove her from the soldier she has fallen in
love with. Hopefully this will help make amends with her
audience in showing her support of the military and regret
at her previous behavior.
Arriving in Afghanistan 3 days prior to Tenley to insure
her comfort, she is met by Major Chase Rawlins who is not
happy at a stand down order from his commander and
reassignment to the celebrity for her safety. One look at
Kate as she disembarks from the plane and Chase knows he is
in trouble. Kate's heart races and her knees wobble at the
sight of her military escort. Spending the next couple of
days traveling to view the venues, all caution is thrown to
the wind and both libidos are out of control. It is soon
evident to both that hot sensual sex is not going to be
enough. Dealing with Tenley's problems consumes Kate and,
pushing harder than warranted, precipitates Tenley to take
control of her own life and fire Kate. Devastated, Kate
returns to the states to resume her web design business with
promises that she and Chase will keep in contact until he
finishes his stent in Afghanistan in 6 months. Once in the
states, Chase is terrified that Kate has changed her mind.
The tale of a devoted sister dropping her entire life and
dreams to care for her sister wrenches the heart. Unable to
turn loose and let Tenley live her own life in making her
own decisions is breaking Kate's heart. Karen Foley has
created an emotional and nostalgic tale of the love and
devotion between two sisters. I completely enjoyed NO GOING
BACK
and will search out other stories by Karen Foley. She
has a definite flair of keeping the interest and moving the
story along. I completely enjoyed the extra insight of the
military serving our country overseas. NO GOING BACK is a
great quick read.
Subject: Army Special Ops Major Chase Rawlins Current Status: On tour in Afghanistan Mission: Babysitting civilians Obstacle: Keeping his mind on his duty…and his hands off a certain sexy civvy
Major Chase Rawlins is one of the toughest military SOBs around. His job? Take out terrorists. So why is he escorting publicist Kate Fitzgerald around the base in order to prep for a visiting pop star? It's the last thing he wants to do. Even if Kate does make his blood run hotter than the Afghan desert….
Thanks to her starlet half sister, Kate is used to "challenging" situations. But when Major Sexypants informs her that he will handle all of her needs, Kate finds herself tempted to do her own reconnaissance…under Chase's uniform!
One week. One chance. And once they start, there's no going back!
