Your review beautifully captures the emotional journey of Kelly in "Saving KC." The depiction of war trauma and the resilience to find love again is compelling. Your mention of the impact on soldiers' lives makes me keen to explore this unique perspective. Adding it to my to-read list!

I have watched movies and shows on war trauma and am interested in Kelly's experience of the war and how it altered his life. Thank for the review.

I feel the pain of Kelly as he suffered in captivity during one of his missions as a soldier, though he was in a romantic relationship with Rita that was truncated.

Thanks for the review!
"Saving KC" is a historical fiction romance book that will give a reader insight into the life of a soldier (through Kelly) and their experiences in the military. I'm glad Kelly was able to overcome war trauma and that he found love again.
