British Army medic Kate Sanderson's mission there is crystal clear: to look after the injured and save as many lives as she can, on both sides of the wire, and avoid getting herself killed in the process.She is assigned to a platoon led by USMC Captain Tyler Jackson, a talented young officer who uses her career as an excuse to avoid personal relationships. The handsome captain has learnt the hard way that love can hurt beyond life itself, but Kate's presence in camp is making it difficult for her to keep her distance... When fate blows them apart, both women will discover the power of hope, trust, and that destiny really is only a matter of choice.
