Promise Me By Jo Huddleston


In 1960, civil discord in Vietnam fills the news. After his college graduation, Patrick Fitzgerald plans to join his daddy’s South Carolina accounting firm. But Uncle Sam may have another position in mind for Patrick—in the U.S. Army. His family’s affluence would be no match for the persuasion of the military draft 

Adriana Montagna’s Papá ekes out a living as a coal miner in the mountains of West Virginia. Can a lasting relationship form with Patrick, or will his wealth become a barrier between them? 

Meanwhile, the fiber of America’s unity stands on the precipice, while its youth fight a no-win battle on foreign soil. What good can a young couple hope for at such a time as this?

My Review
Promise Me
By Jo Huddleston

I really enjoyed Promise Me it is book 3 in the series "West Virginia Mountains". I love all the characters the all are very well written.  What a wonderful love story.  What happens when two brothers are in love with the same girl? Adriana is in love with Patrick but he goes off to war in Vietnam leaving his brother to be there with her. Can love endure while Patrick is at war or will his brother win her over?  This is a great book. I give it 5 star
