The one criticism I have is the overuse of the word “baby” and “darlin’” in the story. I got a feel for that time period through her descriptions of clothing and settings. The author uses slang of the late sixties to set the tone of the book. The book almost becomes a fantasy at this point because of this strong bond and connection. She sometimes has visions that he is alive, calling out to her, and tries to make sense of the meaning. Beth Ann struggles with leaving Kaylob in the past and moving on. Blake is rich and handsome, someone who’s loved her since high school. Beth Ann has to continue her life without him and Blake is more than willing to take his place. The strength of Beth Ann and Kaylob’s love is apparent throughout the book. If you love a good romance story, Seasons of Love and War, is for you. Although good things happen for her, Kaylob is always in the back of her mind. The lovers are torn apart and Beth Ann struggles to go on with her life. Beth Ann isn’t too pleased but finally sees why Kaylob must go back. Kaylob has been to war and volunteers to return. The story is set in a time of change and upheaval in the U.S. What can come between them? The Vietnam War. Beth Ann and Kaylob are young and in love.
