About this ebook
THEIR CHRISTMAS MIRACLE
Just the sight of United States Army Lieutenant Zane Lockhart makes nurse Nora Caldwell (and every other woman he meets) weak at the knees. But Nora has to keep a level head this time. As tempting as it is to fall into his finely sculpted arms—again—she’s got her beautiful baby boy, Liam, to think of now. She can’t settle for some temporary loving. She and her son need, and deserve, more.
Zane has always responded to the call of duty. But that dedication has meant saying goodbye to Nora far too often. He can’t blame her for doubting that he’s finally ready to put her—and Liam—first. Can the Christmas gift of a lifetime convince her?

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Good book. Nora is a former Army nurse who has left the military to raise her adopted son in a more stable environment. She has also ended her on-again-off-again relationship with Zane Lockhart. She wants someone in her life who will be there for her and Liam. She's not especially happy to have Zane appear at her workplace, home for Christmas leave.Zane has wanted his military career for most of his life. He loves what he does, but doesn't like the strain it has put on his relationship with Nora. He's finally ready to consider alternatives, but can he convince Nora that he's ready to settle down?I really enjoyed the maturing of the relationship between Zane and Nora. They've known each other for years, going from friends in high school to a little more in college, then lovers as adults. I liked the realism of the challenges they faced while they were both in the military. There were the long separations, Nora's fears about Zane's safety, and possible issues regarding fraternization. The last time they had been together, Nora had ended her relationship with Zane. Now he's back and intent on becoming part of her life again. He says that he's leaving the army, but Nora has heard it before and is reluctant to get her hopes up. One of the things that brought Zane back to Laramie was the belief that Liam was his. I loved that Zane seemed truly disappointed that he wasn't Liam's father. It was really sweet to see the way that Zane and Liam took to each other.The chemistry between Zane and Nora is just as strong as ever. Though Nora initially tries to resist, eventually she gives in, even knowing how much it will hurt when Zane leaves again. She's determined to take things day by day, but it isn't long before she wants more. But she's afraid to tell him, with her past experience of his fear of being boxed in. Zane's feelings for Nora are just as strong. He's making plans for the future, but not sharing them with Nora. He's broken promises in the past and doesn't want to risk another promise falling through. There were multiple times I wanted to shake them both and tell them to talk to each other. But their silences led to misunderstandings that nearly broke them up again. I was happy to see each of them finally face their fears, enabling them to open their hearts at last. I especially loved the lecture that Zane got from his sister. The epilogue was great.I also enjoyed the secondary characters of the residents of Laramie Gardens. I loved the way that they all cared so much about Nora. Some of the advice they gave her was pretty funny, and some of it was exactly what she needed to hear. I also loved how Zane quickly became a part of the group. I especially loved his connection with Mr. Pierce. I liked the realism of the issues that Mr. Pierce was dealing with and the caring that Zane and Nora showed. I liked the inclusion of the residents in the epilogue too.
