About this listen
Ray McKenna returns from the war in Iraq to find that she had attained unwanted celebrity status back home. As the only surviving American soldier of a well-publicized hostage crisis, she is the center of attention at a time when all she wants is solitude. Struggling to overcome the fear and anxiety that plague her, she relies on her psychiatric therapy dog Jagger to help her through the vicious symptoms of PTSD. Veterinarian Dr. Carly Warner hasn't yet figured out how to open her heart to the possibility of falling in love again after the death of her longtime partner. When Ray McKenna walks into the North Coast Veterinary Clinic with Jagger, she and Carly begin a friendship that takes them both by surprise. Brought together by their shared love of dogs, Ray and Carly discover that they are both capable of moving forward, if only they are brave enough to try.

I have listened to and read this story multiple times; I love it! In my opinion, the narration was on point.
Favorite one by far

Would you try another book from Meghan O'Brien and/or Amanda Goodyear?
I would like to continue listening/reading Meghan O'Brien's books, but I really don't think I could tolerate listening to this narrator.How did the narrator detract from the book?
She actually detracted from the story. I felt like her voice was very grating and I often was pulled from the story because I was so distracted.Was Battle Scars worth the listening time?
I did enjoy the story but the narration was awful.Terrible Narrator

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would recommend the book in e-book format. Ms. Goodyear did not do the book justice. She read it as if the characters were teenagers. She read the book as if she was in a race. There was no passion read into the love scenes. If I had not read the e-book before I purchased the audible book, I would have hated it.What did you like best about this story?
Ms. O'Brien made you feel for both women in the story. I like the true conflict. It made since.Would you be willing to try another one of Amanda Goodyear’s performances?
No ... never.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The very end .... to say more would be a spoilerGreat Book .... Awful Narrator
