Recovering addict Jamie Yorke has returned to England from California. With no home or family to speak of, he sticks a pin in a map and finds a small town in the Derbyshire Peak District. Matlock Bath is a quiet placeóhe just needs to get there, keep his head down, and stay clean. Simple, right? Until a chance meeting on the flight home alters the course of his so-called life forever.

Ex-Army medic Marc Ramsey is recovering from life-changing combat injuries while pulling nights as a trauma specialist at the local hospital. Keeping busy is a habit he can't quit, but when Jamie goes wild and beautifulóbursts into his life, working himself into the ground isn't as compelling as it used to be.

Marc falls hard, but chaos lurks behind Jamie's fragile facade. He's winning his battle against addiction, but another old foe is slowly consuming him. Both men have weathered many storms, but the path to the peace they deserve might prove the roughest ride yet.

A soft and refreshing read.

No angst.

No drama.

No violence.

Some tugging at the heartstrings.

Simply two men connecting on an unexpected level and helping each other heal each other's wounds, one with deeper wounds than the other.

While I enjoyed Soul To Keep, I felt that some of the story was a little rushed and the ending somewhat abrupt. A little more added to the ending would have made it more enjoyable.

Still, I give it a 4.5 out of 5 stars and I do recommend it.
