BACK TO US
by Teresa Roman
BLURB:
Abandoned by her parents at fourteen, Jessica knows what it means to struggle. Jessica’s vowed that getting her degree is the only thing she has time for, until a summer internship brings Justin into her life. But Justin has scars of his own. A tour of duty in Afghanistan has left him with wounds. A medical discharge from the Navy leaves Justin struggling to make sense of his new reality. Then he meets Jessica; but can the two of them leave their pain in the past and make a future together?
Excerpt:
“I don’t want to bail on you, Justin. I love you.”
“It’ll be easier if you walk away now, before I fall even more in love with you than I already am,” Justin whispered, his voice hoarse.
“Please don’t say that to me again or I’m going to feel like it’s what you want.”
“You seemed so unhappy earlier after we left my apartment. I thought if we came back here I could make you forget what an awful time you had at my house.”
“Is that why you were overdoing it on the champagne?”
“You noticed?”
I nodded. “It’s not like you to drink that much.”
“God, I’m so sorry. I was just upset about the way my mom treated you. I kept thinking that you wished you had gone with your brother instead.”
“It wasn’t that bad,” I said. “Let’s just forget about it, okay?
Justin nodded. I lay back down and pulled him down beside me. It was half past three and I was tired. “If I turn off the lights and we try and get some sleep, do you think you’ll be okay?”
“Do you still love me, Jess?”
“Of course I do,” I insisted, surprised that he could think otherwise.
Justin wrapped one of his arms over my shoulder. “Then I’ll be all right.”

Oooh, this book sounds so good. I can’t wait to read it. I really enjoy reading books where the hero is or has been in the military. I’ve found that that experience really adds a depth to the character and the entire story.
My husband is former Navy so he sort of inspired me to write a hero that was in the military.
I liked the book blurb, and the excerpt. I have added this story to my book wishlist.
I hope you enjoy reading the book as much as I enjoyed writing it
Thanks for hosting!
This book sounds so good. I bet I’ll end up reading it in a day. It’s on my summer reading list. Can’t wait.
Thanks:)
thank you for the chance to win 🙂
This book sounds interesting. I hope she doesn’t let that boy get in the way of getting her degree though. I will have to check it out.
Well I don’t want to give away the ending, but I think you’d like the way everything turns out
Thanks for hosting me today
I think Kindle Scout is the bomb. I have several novels that I’ve nominated, and received free copies. I think it’s a great way to find new authors too. Congrats!
How many books has the author written. I would be interested in more.
Beautiful cover, thanks for the chance!
Kind of a love against the odds type book? Well sounds interesting.
This sounds like one that I would enjoy reading I like military stories.
sounds like a great book! Thanks for the giveaway.
I’m curious as to what her pain from her past might be.
