Heartbreak Warfare

Heather M. Orgeron and Kate Stewart

This is a standalone military romance following Army nurse Katy "Scottie" Scott, who leaves her husband and young son for a deployment to Iraq. There she forms an unexpected bond with fellow soldier Briggs, and when a mission goes catastrophically wrong, the two are taken captive together, an ordeal that permanently reshapes their lives and feelings for one another. The aftermath forces Katy, Briggs, and Katy's husband Gavin to confront trauma, loyalty, and where their hearts truly belong. It's an angst-heavy story that pulls no punches about the physical and emotional toll of war on soldiers and the families waiting for them at home.
