It\u2019s why she\u2019s back in Houston. But that means confronting the brooding physician assistant who caused painful turmoil in her family\u2014and left Lauren with memories her heart can\u2019t forget.<\/p>\n<p>PA and single parent Elijah Landry is no stranger to stormy relationships, including one with his father, who is threatening him with a restraining order. It won\u2019t stop Eli from protecting his disabled brother\u2014or from making peace with Lauren. He wants that and so much more.<\/p>\n<p>But as Lauren and Eli draw closer, a powerful hurricane roars toward Houston. Survival instincts take priority and everything changes. Can hope weather the storm?<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>This is the third book in a series, but the first one that I had read by this author. Honestly, I&#8217;m going to tell you right off the bat that while I liked the book, I wouldn&#8217;t necessarily consider it chick lit or even romance. It&#8217;s deeper than that. It&#8217;s a complex story that held my attention right until the end and one that truly spoke of hope and how difficult it is to hold onto at times but how if you hold on, you&#8217;ll find that the light at the end of the tunnel isn&#8217;t necessarily an oncoming train. If you&#8217;re looking for some light romance, then this might not be the book for you. However, if you&#8217;re looking for something a little deeper, I&#8217;d recommend picking up a copy of Life Support.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/s227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/?action=view&amp;current=Name2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/Name2.jpg\" alt=\"Photobucket\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><i>I received a copy of this book for the purpose of this review.
