The original Officer and a Gentleman is one of my favorite movies. I have watched it over 50 times, and that’s downplaying it. This book did NOT disappoint. It has all the feels and made me laugh and cry! Boy! Did I cry 😢 There are many times he brings the movie scenes into the book. I love how you get those memories.
Zack Mayo is back, and now he has a daughter! They have a terrible relationship, and for most of the story, Mayo is trying to make amends. Stg. Foley is as likable as ever and is back in a significant role. Mayo’s daughter is trying to become a fighter pilot and falls in love with another fighter pilot in training. Can their relationship last when they are both after the same thing? Will she be able to make her father proud? Will he finally accept her?
Douglas Day Stewart did it right. You never know it’s a sequel, but I am thrilled with this book. I hope you can make this into a movie so the world can enjoy it as much as I did!
I know it’s only February, but I can already see this will be a top 10 book for the year for me! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The only thing I’m sad about is I finished the book. Oh well, I’ll reread it!
