Coen Steele has spent the last five years serving his country. Now that he's back, he's finally ready to leave behind the chaos of the battlefield and pursue his lifelong dream. What he wasn't expecting was the feisty sister of one of his battle buddies—who has made it obvious that she wants nothing to do with him—to intrigue him in a way no woman has before.
Reagan Hudson's life changed in the blink of an eye six years ago when she found out she was pregnant and on her own. Since then, Reagan has vowed never to let another man into her life so that no one can walk out on her, or her son, again. But the more she runs into her brother's hot and mysterious friend, the more he sparks something in her that she promised herself she wouldn't feel again.
Can two people with everything to lose allow themselves to finally capture the love they both deserve?

PLEASE VISIT THIS SITE – www.mollysmcadams.com/capturing-peace.... Molly’s friend Tyler Seielstads photos were the inspiration to write *his* story. Go check out the “real” Coen! Tyler is pretty talented.
ARC kindly provided by the author in exchange for a fair and honest review. Spoiler-free review. No cliffhanger. 4.0 stars. HEA. Part of a series but can be enjoyed as a standalone.
Reagan gets pregnant at 16. Her boyfriend wants nothing to do with being a teenage baby daddy and kicks her to the curb. Reagan is close to her family, and she leans on them instead of her sons’ absentee dad. Reagan is fiercely independent, and a single mom completely devoted to her six year old son. Reagan swears off men and relationships. She refuses to get hurt by another man. Reagan ends up meeting Coen, her brothers’ hot friend that he met in the army. Coen just got out of the service and is pursuing his dream of owning his own photography studio. He is plagued with flashbacks and stress from horrific incidents that happened when he was a POW. Coen does not feel he deserves to be happy. Reagan believes she is better off on her own. Can the two find peace and love?
Overall I liked Capturing Peace. I liked it the way Reagan and Coens' connection built up. They did not have the insta-love thing going on…and the plots pace worked for these two emotionally guarded people. Reagan was a solid character. She was such a strong and smart character. Coen is every single moms dream man. I know this was a novella (but I wanted more). I liked these two characters, and I’m looking forward to reading the rest of the Sharing You series. I have to say it was pretty cool to have a hero that wasn’t the stereotypical typical black-blond/ hair and green/blue eyes. Go one click this one!

About Molly:
Molly grew up in California but now lives in the oh-so-amazing state of Texas with her husband and furry four-legged daughters. When she's not diving into the world of her characters, some of her hobbies include hiking, snowboarding, traveling, and long walks on the beach … which roughly translates to being a homebody with her hubby and dishing out movie quotes. She has a weakness for crude-humored movies, fried pickles and loves curling up in a fluffy comforter during a thunderstorm ... or under one in a bathtub if there are tornados. That way she can pretend they aren't really happening.
