About this listen
In a war torn Afghanistan, Junie signs up for a Peace Corps assignment involving recently orphaned children. She wasn't expecting a lavish experience. She knew it would be primitive and dangerous, but it turned out to be way more difficult than she could have imagined.
Captain Tyler Alexander, US Army, Infantry: Mission first and mission ready is his motto, but he realizes it all has a deeper meaning when he meets Junie - a Flower-power Peace Corps volunteer.

Interesting and Insightful
The author and narrators were new to me on this book along with the military romance genre. I thought the author did a great job portraying both the military and civilization reaction to their surroundings. The story was well written and full of hope. Language was not offensive at all. Steam level was low and clean. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

A Pleasant Surprise!
For a short story, it was much better than I thought it would be. The author did a good job describing the "war zone", it was descriptive and interesting. It really made me wish this was longer. Captain Tyler Alexander and his team were ambushed, while taking Junie and the other Peace Corps members to an orphanage in Afghanistan. Junie and the Captain were taken prisoner and he planed a daring escape for them.
The narration was good. I actually liked Michael Icenogle performance more than Rita Rush but they both did good.
This story could easily be listened to in one sitting. There's no steamy romance, but the story follows the characters as they come to terms with their feelings after their ordeal. I received this audio from the publisher for an honest review.

Love in a dangerous place
This was a really great story. I enjoyed listening to it, but was a bit disappointed that Michael and Rita's voices didn't intermingle and were completely separate. Even with that each did a great job. I really liked the idea of finding love in a dangerous land and Amy did a great job creating Junie and Tyler. They seemed really awesome together. The only reason I didn't completely love the story was that there were a few parts that just didn't seem to flow for me but other wise it all worked wonderfully together.

Amazing story!
--I was given a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review
This is my first Amy Rachiele book, and it was amazing. I didn't know what to expect, have listened to many military romances, but this was really the first one that has taken me to the front lines and made me feel like I was there. The story of Junie and Tyler is a short, but very powerful one.Tyler, Captain of his unit, and Junie, a Peace Corp volunteer are kidnapped by the Taliban early on. Once away, Tyler removes himself as far as he can from Junie, unable to stop thinking about her. Tyler, though an idiot for part of the story, comes through as an amazing, caring man. Just when Junie thought all was lost, he comes in and apologizes, sweeps her off her feet and they are on the road to love. Then, the attack happens and the hero comes through. I love that the hard muscled, strong, brave man saves a piece of shrapnel that he took from Junie, a true romantic keeping something that hooks them to each other and carries it around.
Rita Rush and Michael Icenogle bring this story to life with their tagteam narration. I especially loved Michael, I thought his voice was perfect for this story.

Lovely Clean Romance
This Military romance is set in Afghanistan. It's a story full of action and adventure and a blossoming love. This is a short sweet romance with a happy ending.
I love hot and heavy books. But sometimes those books get boring. With the action and adventure, this one is anything but boring. There is no sex in this book but it really doesn't need it. The story is a good one. If you love adventure a little romance and a happy ending this quick listen is for you.

Hero Saves Woman-Ignore the Unbelievable and Enjoy
June is on her way to work in an orphanage in Afghanistan to work. Captain Tyler is the head of a group of soldiers whose current task is to bring the volunteers to the orphanage.
Along the way their vehicle was hit and both June & Tyler are captured by the Taliban.
What follows is a string of rather unbelievable circumstances and numerous coincidences that keep the story going with plenty of action.
Since *I was given a copy of this book to listen to in exchange from my review, I set aside the above (sort of unrealistic) issues and allowed myself to listen to a great story.
Rita Rush & Michael Icenogle were both good. I did think that Rush's female characters sounded quite similar but the performance over all of the male characters were very unique.
Notes: Violence, strong language & the threat of a rape is alluded to.
Ratings: Rated R for the reasons above in my notes.

Reviews are important. I read the reviews of others before I purchase a book. If you found my review helpful in your decision about this book, would you please select yes directly below this paragraph? Thank you so much.
Please consider "following me" here on Audible.com. I purchased a lot of books by authors that I am faithful to. I also have the opportunity to review books in all genres, many that I would not pick up on my own. I have been pleasantly surprised by new authors and narrators. Thanks!

Sweet!
Any additional comments?
This audiobook was given to me for an honest unbiased review. This was sweet, loved the reaction from both the military and civilian perspectives. There is no sex, this was a nice change, there is no need for sex in romances, it can be great, but too much leaves a vacuum in the plot, this was wonderful, no vacuum.
