This is a Romantic Thriller and tells the story of a young female journalist who is sent to the Central American country to do research for a Community Development Foundation. En route she meets a young American Special Forces soldier who has recently left the forces after serving ten years almost continually in both Iraq and Afghanistan.
He is a battle weary veteran and she is an innocent abroad from a sheltered background. At first glance she appears unfit for the tasks assigned her. The book explains how two people from diverse backgrounds can find common ground and can change their philosophy when living in the right environment. The book also explores the history of a fascinating country, its hopes and aspirations and the social problems that are inhibiting its growth.
