“Twenty-seven year old Carrie Thompson-Sherman has the life she always wanted: her PhD, a prestigious fellowship, and an amazing husband.
Her life begins to unravel as a jealous colleague puts her fellowship in jeopardy and a haunting secret Ray Sherman carried home from Afghanistan comes to light.
Hounded by a federal investigation and the ensuing media feeding frenzy, Carrie and Ray desperately lean on each other, until a disastrous accident puts both Ray and her sister’s lives at risk.
In the last hour, Carrie and Ray will each find themselves faced with a choice.
A choice that will change everything “
Book three in The Thompson Sisters Series pulls on your heart strings while playing a symphony of words that will touch the depths of your soul. This is truly a story like no other that I have read. It is original and different (in a good way). Charles Sheehan – Miles did and amazing job of writing a love story that gives you heart but also gives you gritty reality. Life is not peaches and cream 100% of the time and love is no different.
Carrie was a wonderfully written character. If I learned anything from the first two books I learned that the Thompson sisters are the epitome of strength. The taste of Carrie in the first two books is nowhere near the remarkable woman presented in The Last Hour. I look forward to seeing her grow throughout the rest of the series. Ray’s character also spoke to me on a level like no other. Know first hand the pain and pride that a military life creates I was able to relate to his struggle. The courageousness that Ray encompassed was unlike anything I have read and make me want to call my father and thank him for being the solider in my life. I found peace when I read the last words of The Last Hour. Life is never easy but sometime you can find beauty in the pain. This is a must read along with the first two books of the series. Charles’ male perspective of female emotions allows a refreshing take on a modern day love story. This story deserves a medal of honor but will have to make due with 5 stars.
Charles lives in Bethesda, Maryland with his wife Veronica and their two children.
