Until Forever

She flew halfway across the country to avoid seeing him, yet there he stood, right in the middle of her kitchen...

Rayelynn Anderson (her friends called her Raye) had fallen in love with a Navy SEAL she met while providing physical therapy for one of his SEAL team members at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. Raye had seen countless men and women return from military duty overseas, wounded both physically and mentally, many of them never recovering from their wounds, and saw the toll it took on their families. Her own brother had suffered an injury while stationed overseas, and she saw firsthand the pain and devastation it cost her own family.

Raye had made a vow long before she met Tony Deveraux that she would never become romantically involved with a military man, a vow designed to shield her from the pain and grief that so many times accompanies those kinds of relationships. Tony, on the other hand, was just too irresistible. What could one dinner hurt? One dinner turned into a six-month relationship that finally ended when Tony was deployed back to the Middle East.

Raye tried to escape to Gulf Shores, Alabama, to avoid seeing him when he returned to the States, but fate had other plans. Theirs is a story of a love that was, then wasn't, then was again, and the second time, destiny played its part to ensure they would be together...Until Forever.
