On 07/03/2025 I finished reading Rescue my heart , a book by Jill Shalvis . It was the 36 book I have read this year. I have 24 more books to read to complete my goal. I chose to read this book because I had a rough week , and I just wanted to disconnect from everyone and everything. I have read many of Jill Shalvis books and she makes me laugh , something that I was really needing.
Rescue my heart made a good impression on me because it showed that many of us have some ghosts in our closet. The main character suffer from sever PTSD after a tragic stint in the National Guard. He thinks that he is not enough , most of his life he carried this feeling . In his young adult years he left Holly , the one he loved so much because he believed that she deserved better then him. He broke up with her and went in to the military . Many years later they reconnected , however both of them have been through some challenges. Rescue My Heart impressed me the most because it showed me how important is to have good support system. You need people that truly love you , care for you and will contribute to my success upon release for the following reasons ; I will keep strengthening relationships with people that I love and care for and that love and care for me. I can succeed with their support.
I can heal from any trauma in my life. I understand through the book that it is important to open up and allow yourself to be vulnerable because it can be amazing tool for growth .
