Trent Milner has been in love with Danika Anderson his entire life. The one stolen moment he has with her before he leaves for the military is one he would carry with him for the next four years. Only days before his enlistment is up he and his best friend, Degan, Dani's brother, are to head stateside, Degan takes the full impact of a bomb, shielding his team from harm, then dying in Trent's arms. Now Trent is left with the images of his best friend dying along with the responsibility of telling the one woman he loves, Degan's sister, that he's gone.
Dani is a free spirit living wherever her mood takes her never staying in one spot too long. When Dani sees Trent sitting in her classroom after four long years, she sees a man living in the body of where the boy used to be. She always admired the boy, but the man before her now takes her breath away. Unfortunately Trent isn't there to sweep her off her feet, at least that isn't his main objective, and she has to come to grips with the devastating news he came to deliver. Dani struggles with an unresolved fight she had with her brother, but more than that, can she also forgive Trent for the reminder of everything he represent. Will she be able to look at him and not see Degan and all that she's lost?
Dealing with PTSD and unresolved feelings both Dani and Trent have a lot of healing to do, but together they are stronger than apart. They need to decide if they have a future that works where their past doesn't block out their sun.
Sol was not only a sweet love story about two opposing people struggling to overcome a devastating loss, but also a love story that showed how two people can help one another heal when you stick by during the hard times and work out problems instead of always running away from them. I enjoyed the fact that there wasn't a lot of unnecessary drama intermixed with the storyline. Instead Leslie focused on two people dealing with their grief in very real life ways, yet at the heart it was still a love story. Their journey was a delight to read.
