It happened the way attraction happens best: suddenly, passionately, uncontrollably and unforgettably. Thousands of feet above the ground on a crowded flight to Washington, D.C., radio personality Keely Williams felt the irresistible pull of handsome congressman Dax Devereaux.They were speaking at the same congressional hearing about Vietnam soldiers listed as MIA. Tragically, Keely's husband was among the missing soldiers. He had been her childhood sweetheart, her future, her love-: and then the unanswered question Keely dedicated her life to solving. Until there was Dax. And the possibility of a new future. But could Keely allow herself to love again, and still honor the man of her past?
What an exceptional book! I truly loved it! It really moved me with the war and everything going on in Iraq these days. Keely Preston being married for 12 years, not knowing if her husband is dead or alive, a helicopter pilot with the armed forces. He is MIA and she works on this committe called PROOF. She is trying to let congress know too keep the MIA's and the money to their families continuing until they find out legally if they are dead. That's when she meets up with Dax a congressman, he helps her and supports her and they both fall in love. One of Sandra Brown's awesome books! Great read for anytime.

I read this book several years ago and had forgotten. While I was reading, I felt like I was revisiting some old friends. The wife (Keely) of a MIA who after only weeks of marriage loses her husband for 12 years. For 12 years, she is loyal to her husband but discovers she's a woman with woman needs to be loved and cherished. No longer a child bride. She meets Dax, a congressman on the way up the political ladder. They fall in love and try to fight their attraction. In the end there is always a happy ending for Ms. Howard. I fell in love with Keely's best friend Nicole what a character. Once you finish reading this book you'll wish you had a good friend like Nicole.
