A Ring and A Promise #2
A Ring and A Vow
Every promise must someday be fulfilled, and the best way Owen knows how to reward Cary’s faith is with a vow.
It’s been nearly five years since Owen went down on one knee with his Academy ring and promised Cary he’d someday do it for real. With Cary being a Naval aviator and Owen a Marine officer serving in Iraq, they’re rarely on the same continent, let alone together.
About time for them to fill out paperwork to re-up, Owen realizes that if they were married, they’d have a much better chance of being stationed nearby. But time is not on their side, so he’s forced to compromise on his proposal in order to make it work.
Cary has been waiting for Owen for years—there was no chance he’d ever say anything but yes. Owen is coming home at last, and wants to make a home with him. However, between the chronic nightmares he’s been fighting and the ever more complicated wedding plans, the next month could be anything but a dream.
Publisher's Note: This book is the sequel to A Ring and a Promise. This was originally published in the Semper Fidelis anthology.

In this wonderful sequel to ‘A Ring and a Promise’, Marine officer Owen and Naval aviator Cary are back. This time they intend to bridge the gap between the two arms of the service on a more permanent basis, and I loved watching them go through the necessary steps until they got to the “I do” that has been eluding them for years. Neither Cary’s nightmares nor time restraints imposed by uncertainty about the next posting can stop them from forging the future they have both been waiting for. This is a sweet story without major drama, well, unless you count wedding preparations and dealing with flower arrangements and relatives. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing how Owen and Cary were doing!
If you like hot military men, if the issues they are facing about who they are and living out in the open sound interesting, and if you’re looking for a read that is as sweet as it is hot, then you will probably like this short story.

I read this as part of the Semper Fidelis anthology. A Ring and a Vow is the sequel to A Ring and a Promise and continues Owen's and Cary's journey together. After being an official couple for 5 years, Owen makes good on his promise when they exchanged rings before. We get a wedding!
I smiled so much while reading this. It is the perfect follow up to A Ring and a Promise and Owen and Cary are simply perfect together.
Definitely recommended.

I received a free copy of this book to read and review for Wicked Reads
This follows on from A Ring and a Promise - and five years on we see that the men are still together, although rarely in each other's company. Owen has a plan though and surprises Cary in the very best of ways. This is such a fun read, with the mix of really sweet romantic moments and the harshness of the reality of being in the armed forces.
It was a very enjoyable, if short read. I can see myself reading the two again sometime as a 'cheer-me-up' tonic.

Like someone said this was like an extra long epilogue. I loved it, it was great to catch up with them both and see them take their relationship to the next level.

This is a sweet romance that will make your heart feel good. Owen and Cary have been together for years and now they plan to make it official. With a wedding to plan and re-enlisting to think about the two men have a lot on their minds but the men still make time to spend together. The two make a great couple. Their love shines through in everything that they do. I enjoyed seeing Owen and Cary reinforce their relationship. The love that share makes for a great read. I loved the way Owen and Cary worked together to get the wedding together and seeing the romantic side of Owen made for a nice read.

A Wedding with Military Precision
I loved how in sync the grooms were with what they wanted. It was great they had the support of family and friends. The humor set just the right tone.
