    About this ebook

    In the jungles of Vietnam, First Lieutenant Stu Willis met Private Richmond Patterson and fell hard for the new recruit. Their brief romance burned bright, but the very war that brought them together finally tore them apart.

    This isn't the happy-ever-after you're looking for, but it is one of the best stories I've written to date. So consider yourself warned.
