Short
Summary of the book:
Vicki and Ambrose are still trying to escape
from invading forces and she hopes against hope her fiancé Will is still alive.
With the truck stolen, will she need to give up on the search and accept he is
no longer alive? After all, he was dragged off by the invaders. The feelings
Ambrose develops for her also cause him problems. And will he be able to find
and save her when she is abducted by the terrorists?
What
I liked about the book:
The tension in this book is double tension.
First the tension of whether the two will survive. But there is also the
tension between two people fighting against their mutual attraction.
What
I didn’t like about the book:
I enjoyed the entire book.
My
favourite bits in the book:
How Vicki sticks up for Ambrose and Ambrose
searches for the woman he has fallen in love with.
My
least favourite bits in the book:
I enjoyed the book in its entirety.
Any
further books in the series? Any more planned by this author?
This is the second book in the series. After reading
the first, I couldn’t stop myself from getting the other two too.
What
books could this be compared to and why?
This series is not like any others I’ve read.
It shows us not to judge people at first appearance and also the strength of
love.

Description by Author:
On the run from invading forces, Vicki
escapes into the woods with Ambrose. After his truck is stolen, she has to make
a choice: accept her fiance, Will, is dead, or keep searching -- possibly in
vain. Can she learn to love Ambrose as she loved Will?
Khaki. That's what everyone thinks of him,
but Vicki knows the truth, and after that kiss, Ambrose yearns for more. He
wants Vicki to forget about her fiance and accept the fact he is dead. They saw
him being dragged off in handcuffs before the explosion! But, what if he's not
dead? What if he made it out alive?
When Vicki is kidnapped by terrorists, Ambrose
fights to find the woman he loves. Yet their lavender dream promises of
serenity may never come.
