The Heart Never Sleeps

By R D Byron-Smith

Empowered professional, fortysomething Elizabeth Kent is a self-described "cougar" who reports for a large newspaper in the nation's capital during the Iraq war, where she admits, while serving as a correspondent she had "embedded" many battle-hardened soldiers. Now the hunt for deposed dictator Saddam Hussein is heating up and she longs to return to the war-torn Middle East to witness it. Instead, she is assigned - in her words "to fight the last war" - to interview a U.S. Marine who has miraculously "woken" from a coma decades after being wounded in the Vietnam War. In this compelling story of self-discovery and love, Kent finds she has much in common with this attractive Marine, and the life he never got to live. What she doesn't know is he has unknowingly kept a secret she has waited a lifetime to learn locked inside his mind. - Pilar Publishing of California.
