Title: A Marine's Promise
Author: Autumn Grace
Date: 2025
Quote: "You're the one Nate mentioned in the will."
The late Nate, a Marine, willed the care of his farm, including his widow and six-year-old son, to his buddy Luke. Luke is willing to live in a "guest house" and work on the farm as if he were a mere employee, so we know he deserves Emily's respect--even admiration. But can she love another man so soon after losing Nate's?
It's a romance. Of course she can. Unless someone brings back the "tragic romance" genre, there'll never be any suspense about a romance. The question is whether readers can believe that the characters' relationship could lead to a happy ending in real life. I think this short e-book moves a little faster than True Love, but Grace certainly delivers characters who are sympathetic enough that readers want them to live happily ever after.
