Publisher's Synopsis
June Westbrook is a shy Southern girl who has a chance encounter that opens up her world to love. The young seventeen-year-old has no experience when it comes to love, but she follows her heart and Alex Brown into the military. She never anticipated that she would be joining the military on the precipice of war. Through unspeakable circumstances, she sets out to discover how to embrace the courageous woman inside her, if there is one. As she travels the world in search of her voice, she finds so much more.
She, like most girls who search within themselves to find a woman, struggles to define what that really means. Her efforts to find herself are confused by the question of truth. Is she living a life based on her truth or are her current circumstances inspiring her journey? June explores these questions through her relationships, war, and a haunting fear of her past.
She learns that life in the military can take a toll on relationships, as she sees those around her struggling. However, her love is intoxicating and unconditional. She has a unique ability to heal those around her. She does so because she is able to notice everyone's scars even those that can't be seen on the surface of their skin. The questions are: Can she heal herself? Can she find that woman inside her that is brave enough to scream from a mountaintop? Can she accept herself enough to find a forever love?
