Nick Marsden has always known that he wanted to be a pilot and run his own flying service. His dream to succeed always came first. He was lucky to meet Stefanie, and have her become his wife. She loves, understands, and accepts him for his faults. Now that the plane he is flying is about to crash in a blizzard, he takes a look back on his life and realizes there are many things that he should have done differently. He took his wife for granted, and providing for his family may not have been enough. He understands now that sometimes words may be better than actions. If only he had ever told Stefanie how he truly felt, then he would have no regrets. Will he be able to say it to her in person? Or will the letter he writes be all that she ever sees? Stefanie Marsden considers herself blessed since she is married to the love of her life for thirty years. When she receives a phone call telling her that Nick has not returned and that he is an hour overdue, she knows that this could possibly be what she has dreaded all her life. She knows that as a pilot's wife any number of things could happen to an airplane, but she also has to have faith that Nick is able to handle whatever situation comes his way. It is now a matter of waiting. As she waits, she reads through the journals that she has kept over the years. She recalls first meeting Nick, and knowing from that moment that he was something special. Are memories all that she has left? Will she ever be able to tell him again that she loves him? Will she ever hear those words from her husband's lips? Rebecca Winters has written a true treasure that will enrich the lives of her readers. She has captured the essence of a wonderful love story. Her characters are flawed but genuine and appealing to the reader. As witnessed through their memories, Nick and Stefanie have surmounted many obstacles in their journey together. Their love for each other has been tested and it is enduring. Their devotion makes this story an exceptional romance. Intermingling the past with the present, gives the reader a better understanding of the characters. I appreciated the structure of this tale, and the way it just seemed to flow. I truly believe that Ms. Winters has created a beautiful story. THE VOW is an unforgettable romance and a novel that I highly recommend.

SUMMARY

I've loved you more than any man has ever loved a woman. If I get out of this alive, I vow never to let a day or night go by without telling you that. When his plane goes down in a Montana blizzard, pilot Nick Marsden is stranded with little more than notepaper, a pen and his memories. As he struggles to stay alive, he recalls the past in barely legible letters to his wife, Stefanie. Nick's always believed that actions speak louder than words. But now words are all he has. It all comes back: their tumultuous high school courtship, the disapproval of family and friends, a separation that almost undid them. And their marriage—with its many blessings and a loss for which Nick has always blamed himself. Now he must fight the odds again to return to Stefanie. And there are three words he has to say to her when he does….
