My Thoughts
This was one tragic, heart wrenching, tale of love lost and love found. The complexity of the characters was brilliant. Krystal captures the reality of military life and the families of those living military life. My heart ached for her characters, I just wanted to help them through the whole book, but what a beautiful story it was. I couldn't put it down I needed to see what happened. The plot was definitely thick with twists and turns, things I never saw coming and things I did not want to see coming. 'Wounded' was a brilliant, read and I highly recommend it.
