Fighting Absolution by Kate McCarthy

5.0

Wow! I am so crazy emotional after reading this book! This is a military romance that spans over several years and takes us from Australia to Afghanistan. An epic love story that that has ruined me for all other books!

There were definitely some surprises in this plot that kept me fully engaged and intrigued to see where the direction the story was headed. I loved every moment of Jamie's journey! This was not only a story of finding love but also of finding herself and ultimately finding what made her happy. 

Jamie enlists in the army as she tries to escape the demons of her past. She becomes a combat medic which puts her on the front line of battle. We experience the brutality, loss and grief of war and we also get to see the difficulties that face women in the army. I have read many military romances but the way the author spin's this tale felt so refreshing and unique. I must tell you that my heart hurt a lot in this book! We get our HEA but just know there are some gut wrenching painful moments.

There are also moments of pure romance that made my heart swoon! I loved this hero so much! His love for Jamie was so selfless and unconditional. His grand/romanctic gestures had me completely undone and his overall cocky and jovial personality made him so damn loveable.

This is a love story that will long be remembered! Sexy, flirty and fun to read while also full of pain, passsion and yearning. I absolutely recommend! I have also read and loved Fighting Redemption but this can definitely be read as a standalone.
