Reunion - Reviewed & Giveaway








Book Blurb:


Everything lost can be found.
Aaron Miller knows a thing or two about loss. He's lost love. Dignity. Second, and even third, chances. Once honored for his heroism, he now lives in near obscurity, working as a handyman in a humble trailer park.
But God is a master at finding and redeeming the lost things of life. Unbeknownst to Aaron, someone is searching for him.
With deep insight into the human heart, consummate storyteller Dan Walsh gently weaves a tale of a life spent in the shadows but meant for the light. Through tense scenes of war and tender moments of romance, The Reunion will make you believe that everyone can get a second chance at life and love.

My Thoughts:
Dan Walsh is a master storyteller, he has the ability to touch the heart, and make you feel emotion with every turn of the page. I should know by now that I will need a box of Kleenex beside me when reading one of his books. I seem to forget that every time.
 In this moving story Aaron Miller is an honorable Vietnam Vet, who was cut off from his children after the war. They actually believe that he didn't care about them which couldn't be further from the truth. An investigative reporter, who is writing a book to honor Veterans, is hired to find Aaron.
He first locates his children, his son is fine with being located, his daughter not so much.
This book evokes all kinds of emotions, and will have you feeling, deeply on all levels. 
My father was in Vietnam, and my ex-husband was in Desert Shield/Storm, I have a great appreciation for all men and women in uniform. Dan gives a great tribute to Veterans in his authors note.

This is a book that is not to be missed!
