An Army doctor, Lena Rodriguez has always been too busy with school or the Army for romance. But the letters she received during deployment have captured her heart. Back home for the holidays, she awaits Christmas morning to meet the man who has turned her life upside down.When Zack Benson watched his best friend's sister Lena leave for Afghanistan, he knew he had to tell her he loved her. So he sent her anonymous love letters. Now that she’s home, he realizes he's made a tactical error. Lena has fallen for the man in those letters but still thinks of him as a brother. He has to convince her otherwise because if he succeeds, he’ll get the best Christmas present ever. But if he fails, he could lose her for good.

OMG what a sweet romance. Lena and Zac had known each other since childhood. Zac was her brothers friends who had enlisted in the army at the same time Lena had also enlisted. They shared a closeness as family does. During her tour Lena received letters from her hometown telling her the things going on and each letter contained a bit more romantic talk. Lena was going home for a short leave for Christmas and her mystery man writer had made plans with her to meet her at the gazebo in town on Christmas day. This story was so sweet and romantic with no explicit sex scenes I could read it over and over. Just loved it. Waiting for more from Ms. Strasser.
