BACK TO YOU is book three in Jessica Scott's Coming Home series.

BACK TO YOU is the story of Trent and Laura. Their marriage is dying a slow death and not because of another woman, but because of his other love, the Army. Captain Trent Davila has a beautiful wife, two children, and a successful career in the military. After he is wounded on a mission and almost dies, he loses a piece of himself, thinking he doesn't deserve to live, and now he is feeling lost and unable to cope with life. After he recovers he volunteers for every mission he can and stays away from his family. He doesn't want them to see the man he has become. Now he's back in the U.S. after being fired and charged for crimes he didn't commit. To make matters worse, his wife has filed for divorce. Divorce is not what she wants and it is breaking her heart, but she can't continue to live like this. Her love is not enough for him, and that hurts worse because asking for divorce doesn't stop her heart from wanting.

In order for Trent to beat the charges, his lawyer tells him he needs to make nice with Laura and be a happy couple. How the heck is he going to do that when she barely looks at him? Will they be able to pull it off? Can they fool everyone? Read BACK TO YOU to find out.

Trent and Laura's story is going to make you fall in love with them and at the same time it is going to break your heart. A word of warning, keep the tissues close by and be prepared not to do anything else until you are finished reading. Once you start you won't be able to stop until the very last page.

BACK TO YOU is a heart shredding look at the troubles our military heroes face when coming home from war. It is hard to read at some points but I love how Trent and Laura's story had me crying ugly!

BACK TO YOU takes you to a very emotional and fragile place -- into the mind of a returning soldier. Jessica Scott creates these tough, but very delicate characters better than anyone else I've read and the whole time I was reading BACK TO YOU all I wanted to do was give Trent a hug. The characters emotions felt very real and I could feel the heartbreak that they are feeling. Buckle up because once you start reading you are going to feel like you are on an emotional roller coaster! Hang on tight! I finished BACK TO YOU with a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes. I can't wait to continue with this series as I am emotionally invested in Trent and Laura's lives!

SUMMARY

He's in for the fight of his life . . .

Army captain Trent Davila loved his wife, Laura, and their two beautiful children. But when he almost lost his life in combat, something inside him died. He couldn't explain the emptiness he felt or bridge the growing distance between him and his family-so he deployed again. And again. And again...until his marriage reached its breaking point. Now, with everything on the line, Trent has one last chance to prove to his wife that he can be the man she needs ...if she'll have him

. . . to win back his only love.

Laura is blindsided when Trent returns home. Time and again, he chose his men over his family, and she's just beginning to put the pieces of her shattered heart back together. But when Trent faces a court martial on false charges, only Laura can save him. What begins as an act of kindness to protect his career inflames a desire she thought long buried-and a love that won't be denied. But can she trust that this time he's back to stay?
