The most brazen terrorist attack in history. A country bent on revenge. A love affair cut short. A heart that never truly heals.

I knew on the day of the attack that our lives were changed forever. What I didn’t know then was that I’d never see John again after he deployed. One day he was living with me, sleeping next to me, making plans with me. The next day he was gone.

That was five years ago. The world has moved on from that awful day, but I’m stuck in my own personal hell, waiting for a man who may be dead for all I know. At my sister’s wedding, I meet Eric, the brother of the groom, and my heart comes alive once again.

The world is riveted by the capture of the terrorist mastermind, brought down by US Special Forces in a daring raid. Now I am trapped between hoping I’ll hear from John and fearing what’ll become of my new life with Eric if I do.

From New York Times best-selling author, Five Years Gone is an epic story of love, honor, duty, unbearable choices and impossible dilemmas.

Marie Force has done it again!!! She drew me in to this story from the very beginning and has exposed so much emotion. This the first Marie Force book I have listened to on Audible and loved how Andi and Joe brought the characters to life. I highly recommend this book!!

A great book to listen to

I really liked this book. It had an interesting, if a little far fetched, plot. How long would you wait for the man you love? As the plot progresses, our girl Ava begins to question if she ever really knew her boyfriend John at all.
The only two criticisms I had were that the story jumped between characters quite a bit, and sometimes I got a little lost as to who was talking. The other thing was that I thought it implausible that John would not have been able to contact his love Ava in any way (letter, phone call, email, text, carrier pigeon) for five years.
I always love Joe Arden's voice and who does not love Andi Arndt's narration?

This book is byfar my most favorite book ever!!!! As a military wife, I found myself crying with Ava on multiple occasions. However, I'm so glad Marie Force kept the storyline realistic especially after Ava finds out she knew very little about the man she loved and anticipated for 5 long years!

My Favorite Book Ever!!!!

I don’t know what I would do in Ava’s situation. After finally accepting the loss of John and moving on with her life everything gets thrown into chaos when John reappears.

Heartbreaking

This story is different than the typical romance. It shows how difficult some life decisions are to make. I never saw the ending coming the way it did. I wanted answers about John and closure and didn’t get it. The book definitely causes the reader to feel many emotions. This is one of those stories which will stay with you. Marie Force once again writes a winner! Narration is excellently performed by Joe Arden and Andi Arndt.

Wonderful story!

what a great book. I loved every minute of it. I was so split on if she should return to John I didn't understand why he didn't contact her at all for five years. even deployed soldiers can call out or email. can't wIt for next book. thank you so much.

5 years honestly

Marie Force has done it with a stand alone novel that is full of all the writing ability this lady has to make a story come to life. The performers are outstanding and so glad she waited for them to do this one for her. All the emotion of the story was brought to life through their voices!

Outstanding!!!
