BLOG TOUR: Dress Blues, A Secondary Chance Military Romance by Lisa Carlisle




Blog Tour:
Dress Blues,
A Second Chance Military Romance
by

Apr 17th - Apr 24th






Is it ever too late for a second chance at love? 

Volunteering at a cat shelter is much calmer than the adrenaline-fueled skirmishes of Vivi Parker’s last deployment in the Marines, but her limp is a constant reminder of what she endured. The shelter is her sanctuary, her one relief from memories that haunt her. At a fundraiser, she runs into a man she could never have while she served, but had never forgotten. 

Active duty had its challenges, but starting over as a civilian in Boston is more difficult than Jack Conroy anticipated. When his mom and sister drag him to a cat benefit, he never expects to see a woman he last saw in Dress Blues—a woman he couldn’t have, but could never forget. 

Vivi fears she’s no longer the woman Jack was drawn to, able to tackle rock climbing walls or other outdoor challenges. And Jack has decisions he must face. 

Military rules forbade their burgeoning passion. But now, years later, the rules have changed. 

Yet, so have they. 










Who are Vivi, Ryan, and Jack? What do they have in common? How do they know one another if they
do? There are definitely less than 6 degrees of separation in this book. It was a very touching romance
story. Not what I expected at all, but so much more. Vets think there is no one else out there that can
 understand that they feel 'broken' after they've seen combat. There are other things that happen in life
that break people as well. It was inspiring to get a picture of Vivi learning her way ack to things that
she loved to do and found a passion for. What did she find out about herself when she finally opened
her ears and mind and listened to Ryan and Jack?         

USA Today bestselling author Lisa Carlisle loves stories with dark, brooding heroes and independent heroines. She’s honored to be a multi-published author writing in different genres since she’s wanted to be a writer since the sixth grade. For much of her professional career, she’s written non-fiction — but she’s discovered writing romance is the most fun. Her romances have been named Top Picks at Night Owl Reviews and All Romance Ebooks.
When she was younger, she worked in a variety of jobs, moving to various countries. She was deployed to Okinawa, Japan, while in the military; backpacked alone through Europe; and lived in Paris before returning to the U.S. She owned a bookstore for a few years, as she loves to read. She’s now married to a fantastic man, and they have two kids, two kittens, and too many fish.
