The guidelines were simple: one letter or email a week for the length of his or her deployment. Care packages were optional. Been there, done that. She thought she knew what to expect. What she didn’t count on was falling in love with the guy. Review: Slow burn. Mariana Zapata is the queen of slow burn and I love it. Because it is all about the anticipation, my favorite thing. I love the anticipation. The lead up to whatever. My favorite season is fall even though my favorite weather is cold and snowy. Fall because once that air starts getting crisp and the leaves start changing colors I know it is not long until winter. Anticipation. I love it. The what will happen, what will it be? And that is why I loved this book. Man Dear Aaron was...about halfway through I was a mess. I couldn't put it down.
