I wrote an email to Cindy awhile back about her characters and the realism that she portrays in her books, and I was floored that she responded back. It's still saved in my inbox:) I've been a military spouse for almost 11 years now and I've met many interesting and diverse folks along the way but it wasn't until recently that books reflected our lifestyle in any sort of flattering or accurate way. This is definitely a hard way to live and being military presents some unique challenges for married couples, if children are involved. What I enjoy most about military romance is the depth of character and the difficult situations. It cracks me up that these guys can face down terrorists armed to the teeth but run screaming from a relationship with a strong woman- the journey is always so much fun! Cindy does a fantastic job with her characters because they always get the HEA but it might not be a traditional one and I appreciate that- which is what I emailed her about. Her reply was to say thank you and to thank my husband for his service to this country- it was such a sincere note and meant a lot to us both. What a bummer that I’m late reading this post.

As a writer who served and is now married to an active duty Airman, I want to thank you for creating so many heroes who have served, in all their glory and flaws. You've written stories that kept me awake at night simply because I could not stop reading. Thank you for writing what you do and for your support.

But, I'm still trudging in my own little way. Trudging to the Post Office is HARDLY in the same category as trudging off to war! But, I’m still trudging in my own little way.

All of our soldiers benefit from heartfelt support and yours helped me in ways I don't think I'll ever be able to articulate enough. So thank you, for caring enough to trudge to the post office and drop boxes in the mail! Cindy, you’re support of me during my deployment showed a truth depth of caring!
