Blast of the Past is a gripping book that tells the story of two people who met under very unusual circumstances.
Kieran and Sophie did not know that the impromptu meeting in Afghanistan would lead them on a journey of self-discovery, and finding love during a tough part of their lives.
Though there were times that the backstories were getting too much, the author intertwined the delicate story with the heartache of war and abuse magnificently.
It is written with empathy, which made the difficulties of military life a reality we couldn't pass as with tuning the next page. The author's compassion was visible throughout the entire plotline as harsh realities became part of this story and you are drawn into the life of a soldier and journalist who had to find their feet once more.
With love, their only guiding light to find their way. Truly a touching story.
A story of obsession, loss, survival and self-preservation
Kieran O'Neill, a young British soldier, experiences the terror of blood-and-guts where killing was part of everyday life in the harsh wastelands of Afghanistan. Risks were high... often undermanned and outgunned, the men faced unrelenting attacks and blistering heat.
Surviving became the biggest challenge of all... that was just the beginning...

Sophie had worked tirelessly to put her unsettled past behind her, escaping her old life meant leaving everything and everyone she loved behind. Despite everything, she's living the life she'd worked so hard to achieve.
When the military locates her with a life-threatening request, she's fearful her past is about to be exposed.
Kieran's spent ten years trying to track her down, he'd tried hard to put the past behind him; but there's no forgetting her.
Two people with a past - can they save each other?
