Remember Laughter — Ginny Sterling

When one door closes, another one opens...

Leia Ketch has been through more than any one person should ever experience. An untimely demise, starting over anew, and having to rely on herself has all been a brutal education in the game of life. Putting on a brave face and trying to remain strong, she gives in to her loneliness and replies to a stranger's email as a favor to a friend.

Jason Hody is caught off-guard when his former chief calls in an unexpected favor. He knows that he's an obnoxious, playful, and outgoing -- but it's a mask. There's so much more to the soldier hidden deep inside. Emailing some woman as a favor causes a blip on his internal radar, but something about her sparks an interest he can't resist.

Can they develop a friendship to fill in the missing pieces of their hearts? Does this attempt at matchmaking turn awry? Could opposites truly attract despite being thousands of miles apart?
