Synopsis

Micah Cooper, an EMT in New York City, was no stranger to thinking fast and acting faster. His life was a continuous loop of spontaneous decisions. Everything was a matter of life or death in his line of work. He lived for the thrill, and loved the ability to help those in need.

Being the son of a well renowned surgeon, Micah was well educated in the life of a medical professional. He had seen everything, or at least he thought he had. But when the planes crashed into the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, Micah realized he hadn’t seen it all. In a single moment, he lost his ability to think. Trapped inside the south tower was his wife, Hope.

Hope was Micah’s world, his sunshine, and when the towers collapsed, so did his heart. He watched, along with the world, as the heart of America went down in dust and flames. Through the chaos and devastation, Micah only had one mission, to find Hope.

By his side, through the madness, was his trusted partner and friend, Zachary Pearce. Together, they raced against time and destruction to save Hope. In the midst of tragedy, discouraged that all might be lost, Micah holds on to a ray of hope that his wife will be found.

This story get four hearts from me

I Feel I need to place a disclaimer on this story. This story deals with events before, during, and after September 11, 2001. It is a wonderful story but I know some cannot handle the content. I understand that.

You will need a box of Kleenex while reading this novella. I bawled like a baby during a few parts. But it is more than worth it! Author Jeanne McDonald takes us on a beautiful love story starting the morning of September 11, 2001. I absolutely adored this story and everything about it. Her main character Micah won my heart.

Micah Cooper a New York City EMT who lives for the action that happens during the late night hours. For Micah as long as he has his sunshine his heart and soul, Hope Cooper anything is possible. The chaos fuels him during the night and his Sunshine calms in during the day. Micah and Sunny live the love story everyone dreams about.  They are it for each other.

Hope Cooper “Sunny” just happens to work in the South World Trade Center. She text Micah when something happens at the north tower. My heart absolutely crumbled when Micah realizes Sunny’s tower was struck by a plane as well. Micah’s entire world spins out of control. Watching Micah process that his wife needs him and he cannot get to her was heart wrenching.

This man will move through hell and high water to find his wife in the fallen rubble. He keeps sane by saving one person at a time and not giving up hope. The way Micah processes everything and fights with anyone who does not believe he will find his wife made my heart swell and tears roll down my cheeks.

I just loved him so much!

This story is very fast paced and keeps you right there with Micah as he searches for his wife. I hope you will all give this story a chance. You won’t be disappointed.
