Freddie Bodine never thought going home for her twentieth high school reunion would present a second chance for her and Keith Wallace, her high school crush.  As a new kind of relationship builds between them, one that Freddie always wanted, it might end way too quickly when Keith and Freddie clash over Freddie’s career choices.

Freddie, an archaeologist with a thirst for adventure, an inquisitive mind, and a love of exploring, is excited about her upcoming archeological dig in Los Diablos Mexico.  This is a dream come true for her and the only thing spoiling her excitement is Keith’s disapproval and fear for her safety.  Keith, Army Special Ops soldier, knows plenty about the instability and lawlessness of Los Diablos. He already lost one person he loved there. Will he lose Freddie, too?

Unconditional Surrender is a sweet love story with a bit of adventure.  I like Freddie. She’s a woman who has her own mind and would not be ruled by just her heart.  Keith was not happy with Freddie’s decision and he made it known but not in an overbearing way.  His actions were fueled by love and wanting to keep Freddie safe from harm.  These two were made for each other. They have sweet passion and great respect for one another, and even when they didn’t agree with each other, it was with respect.  I also liked Marisa and Jake and I’m very happy to say they have a book, too.  Unconditional Surrender is a very enjoyable story.
