Wait for Me

By Dawne Walters

SGT Gabriel Moreno, an immigrant from Cuba, is a crew chief on UH-60 Blackhawk helicopters in the Army. He puts off his dream of being a pilot and going through Warrant Officer Candidate School after losing his cousin to the ravages of war in Afghanistan. Gabe's immediate path is to take care of his cousin's widow Rosa, and their son. But fate has another path for Gabe, and it involves a young tattooed, privileged Brigade Commander's daughter. Colette has always been the odd daughter out of all of the COL Hughes' girls. Lashing out against her father and step mother. She hides behind the taboo of tattooed people; that they are hard asses and nobody wants them around. Because of her tattoos and colored hair, Colette doesn't go on outings with her family. She just wants to fit in somewhere, and at McGruder's Pub in downtown Savannah, GA she does...then she met Gabe. Together, Gabe and Colette will find out how much adversity they have to go through because he's hispanic and she's white. They'll fight the stereo type with friends and family. Through it all, there is the Army lifestyle, with field problems, 24 hour duty and scheduling conflicts. What will Colette do when Gabe says, "Wait for me..."
