Summer with the soldier is a "fling to a thing" story that wasn't very deep but wasn't angst-y either.
Jade Roberts liked to see her friends happy, which is why she throws these parties to match people up, and when she saw the hunk on her beach, her heart sputtered. It was Logan Murphy, her best friend's older brother, home for 2 weeks R&R after deployments in Afghanistan. It'd be the perfect summer fling. She's willing, he's gorgeous. But they were friends before. Can they be more?
This is a short romance, where Jade picked Logan over the rockstar hottie for the night-time tryst. And Logan was obviously a bit PTSD'ed and Jade seem to be the perfect person to draw him out of his shell. But there's always the question: can Jade stick around for a couple more months while Logan finished his tour? There really wasn't a darkest hour per se. It's sweet, and it's about choices and that wish fulfillment of making love to the long-time crush.
