I spent my entire life looking at the stars, but I didn’t know what a constellation was until I saw the pattern of your smile. They tell you the Army teaches you how to survive, but they never teach you how to live. Sergeant Y/N Vance had accepted a life of cold discipline and lonely nights at Fort Drum. But fate has a funny way of breaking through the heaviest armor. When a brilliant, starry-eyed communications specialist named Cruz transfers into her unit, Y/N’s frozen world begins to thaw. Cruz doesn't just see a grumpy infantry sergeant—she sees a soul worth fighting for. Trapped together in a storm, a single shared jacket and a soft, whispered confession turn a miserable field exercise into the beginning of a love story written in the stars.
