After Storms

Vivian is a nurse on the verge of burnout. She doesn’t feel like she is making a difference in people’s lives anymore and needs a change. She loves her coworkers, the hospital where she works, the community in which she lives, and she could never imagine leaving her two best friends, Kayla and Sierra, so she feels stuck. Just when all hope seems lost, an opportunity presents itself to take part in a six-month medical mission trip to the Caribbean island of Dominica which a hurricane had recently hit. She jumps at this chance to challenge her nursing skills and regain that sense of self-worth she’s been lacking. Trent is proud of himself for finally graduating from medical school as a physician’s assistant but knows he doesn’t want to work for his uncle’s clinic as he’s been pressured to do for the last several months. At the same time, he doesn’t want to disappoint the only family he has left since losing his parents in a tragic accident several years ago. He needs more time to make such an important decision as he knows once he accepts his uncle’s offer, there will be no going back. He therefore sees it as a sign when he is offered the opportunity to work in the recently devastated island of Dominica on a medical mission trip. This is his chance to take more time, do some more soul-searching, and discover where his next career step should be. What neither Vivian nor Trent ever dreamed of when they signed up for this mission trip was to find true love. What happens when the romance has an expiration date? The mission trip was only scheduled to last for six months. What happens when they have to leave their utopian island and return home? Can their love survive long distances? But for how long? More importantly, is their love worth upending their entire lives for, and who is willing to make the move to be near the other? It’s easy to fall in love when you’re secluded in paradise, but what happens in the after storms? —- ISBN: 9798863538570
