Justine Campbell would gladly rewind her life a year or so back before it crumbled around her like so much gilded plaster. Billy Tucker could use a rewind button, too. He'd go back to the day before his humvee exploded in Iraq, injuring himself and killing two of his buddies. Billy's bitterness and Justine's humiliation make for a prickly pair when they first meet, but can either of them let go of the past long enough to let God make their paths straight again?
Welcome to Starlight, Texas, a small town with plenty of Texas twang and a kaleidoscope of cultures from around the world, thanks to nearby Fort Hood.

I really enjoyed this romance novel set in Texas near Fort Hood. The budding romance between the returned war veteran and the recuperating movie star was just precious. The religious background didn't really overwhelm or get in your face which I really liked too. A HEA is always fun.
I enjoyed this story a lot. It's the story of two broken people and their road back to physical and psychplogical health. I loved both of the main characters as well as the secondary ones. I'll be reading the rest of the series, too.
Two broken people, whose bodies and spirit, both need healing. The place, the love of the people will do that, in Starlight. A nice family story, with the beauty of the land; to making boots. Readers will love this story.
Justine Campbell and Billy Tucker would like to rewind their lives. They meet up in their home town and fall in love. They both just came out of a tough situation and healing not only physically, but emotionally. They turn to G-d and this book is about how they overcome their situations with G-d and realize the gift they have in front of them. Good book, fast read and kept my interest.
A well written story, I liked the characters and the plot was pretty good to. It was a very good war hero story, very realistic unlike some military books.
