5.0 out of 5 stars Crossing a minefield sensitively 10 April 2012

Kiss the darkness

A hospitalised sergeant already haunted with feelings of guilt over his wounded comrades quickly has to come to terms with the life-changing news that he'll be blind for the rest of his life.

The only distraction from his anguish comes in the form of Holly, the nurse lieutenant whose affection gives him a reason to live.

Although subtitled "An erotic romance", Kiss the Darkness is more of a sensitive, tender fusion of Wacaster's military novels such as Frigate: November with his lesser-known romantic works such as A Writer's Romance and will appeal more to the readers of romance than those expecting adult content.

At a nice length for Kindle, former serviceman Wacaster again sensitively balances rugged military dialogue with tenderness when crossing the professional minefield of a nurse-patient relationship.

Five stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another great book by Robert Wacaster! 3 July 2012
By Jennifer - Published on Amazon.com
I have to admit that I love Robert Wacaster's books. I've read a few of them now and they are all pretty good. Plus he's one of the first authors that sent me books to review here on Just Jennifer Reading, so I might be a bit biased. But I do have to say that this is probably the best book of his that I've read thus far.

The story is one that I can't imagine having to go through. Robert is injured in Afghanistan and looses his sight. But while in the hospital he meets Holly a nurse. As Robert is recuperating Holly is by his side helping him get through the anguish of learning he may never see again, as well as the mental turmoil that he goes through from his experiences.

I liked Holly she was very strong and knew what she wanted. It didn't matter to her what it took to get it, she was going to bust down every obstacle in her way. She thought with her heart, and that's what made her so determined. But she was also very intelligent. She knew that certain obstacles needed to be coerced, rather than broken down, and had the smarts to be able to get through those obstacles also. Robert was a very sweet guy. He seemed like a bit teddy bear, lovable when he needed to be but fierce and protective when those he loved were in danger.

The story was pretty fast paced. There wasn't much down time. Things just kept happening, but not so fast in a wear you out to read it kind of way. Just enough to keep the story on an even keel. Overall another great book by Robert Wacaster!
