Description by Author:
Vicki Morel believes she and Will, her
gorgeous fiancé, have it all. They’re living the American dream. That is, until
Portland, Oregon is leveled by a terrorist grade light weapon, and she loses
Will at the airport.
Ambrose Palamo is an aviation student who
wants one thing: to go home to Samoa. But when Portland is leveled, and he
meets Vicki, he promises to help her find her fiancé instead. What he doesn't
expect is the feelings that start to form for her as they search the dangerous
Oregon woodlands.
Sometimes love isn't what you think it is.
The poppies bloom reminds them of what they’ve lost, while giving them the
courage to face a brand new future.
