Synopsis
“This story is far more than a romance. It's a story of healing and hope…of friendship and empathy. A story like this will sear you.” - Angie & Jessica’s Dreamy Reads
Life was roses. I was happy.
I had my dream job. I’d finally fallen in love with the man who’d been waiting for me since he was a boy. Soon his four years in the Army would be over, and we’d be together forever. My perfect life was squarely in my palm.
And then it was snatched from me.
The harshest, cruelest truth became my reality.
And I turned into a shell of my former self.
Then a stranger arrived, wearing Army fatigues and closely cropped dark hair.
Fulfilling a promise to his comrade-in-arms brought him to my front door.
And the focus of his promise, it turned out, was me.
His mission was simple:
Care for me.
Heal me.
Bring me back to life.
But what started out as an uncomplicated mission is quickly turning personal.
He came here to take care of me.
But neither of us expected how much he’d need me, too.
And we definitely didn't expect these feelings.
My broken heart knows how wrong it is.
We’ll fight it, harder than we’ve ever fought anything.
I’m afraid to win, and I’m even more terrified to lose.
Of all his missions, I may be his most dangerous.

Review
"The Day He Went Away is a compelling romance with powerful themes and memorable characters. Jennifer Millikin's writing casts the kind of spell that grips readers, with their eyes riveted on the pages. She writes masterfully about two of the powerful emotions humans have to deal with -- loss and grief. The story is so human and it sounds so true that readers will find it easy, even natural, to identify and connect with the protagonist. The Day He Went Away has a strong and gripping plot, and readers will want to find out how the protagonist will deal with the devastating loss. Kate is a well-developed character, the very epitome of a grieving soul. The conflict drives the plot in powerful ways and it's so huge that the reader can feel the tension, waiting anxiously for the denouement. Jennifer Millikin is an author that fans of women's fiction and romance should watch out for, a gifted writer with a great skill for character." Readers' Favorite
