"Love in Navy blues - a wonderful story"

When she moved to Seattle, Lindy Kyle was coming off of a heartwrenching breakup and not in the mood for any and all men. Moving into her brother's apartment, she settled in to wallow in her grief and then move on with her life. To her surprise, she wasn't alone in the apartment. Her brother's roommate was back in town, and not quite willing to share the premise.

Rush Callaghan's ship was back in port for repair, and he was looking forward to a few days of relaxation. When he discovers his roommate's sister has moved in without his knowledge, he decides to do the right thing and let her stay and get back on her feet.

As the two begin to get to know each other, they discover an attraction that is undeniable. Lindy doesn't want her heart broken again, and Rush has committed himself to the sea, but love has different plans for the couple. When Rush's ship is finished ahead of schedule, they decide to throw caution to the wind and marry. Will their fledgling love survive the seperation?

Beloved romance author Debbie Macomber first released Navy Wife several years ago, and this first book in the series was a big success. Re-released, it is now more touching than ever, considering current events. Debbie's magical touch with her stories make her books a delightful retreat. The entire Navy series is scheduled to be released through this year. Watch for them!

Summary

Falling for a man in uniform can be hard . . .

New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber weaves emotional tales of love and longing. Here is the first of her celebrated NAVY series!

Impulsive, wounded, vulnerable, Lindy Kyle was unprepared for a roommate like Rush Callaghan. Strong, sensitive and sexy, the temporarily dry-docked naval officer was everything she'd ever dreamed of in a man . . . in a husband.

But Rush placed duty to his country above all else. Though he and Lindy were swept away on a tide of passion, he was called back to sea. They say absence makes the heart grow fonder -- but will their marriage survive their partings?
