About this ebook

Mission: Accept is a 2021 Readers Favorite Award Winner: Gold Award in the Military Fiction Genre

Mission: Accept is the second story in the Rise Again Warrior series but can be read as a standalone novel.

Dana Donahue might be Shane Logan’s cousin, but she’s nothing like him—she’s quite the opposite of him. Her thoughts focus on what money and people can do for her. She never approved of Shane joining the military and knows little about the world he has lived in for most of his life. All that will change when she has to ask him for a job after her father cuts her off.

Derek Stall lives on the streets by choice—not circumstance. Memories of what he did under order sometimes haunt him, other times give him the strength to move through one more day until he can finish the mission he started.

A chance meeting between Dana and Derek will lead to an unlikely friendship that might just save his life, but the drastic differences between them could be the dividing wedge that keeps them apart.

When Derek feels he has to leave Rise Again Warrior to complete his mission, he begins to realize that he could be leaving behind more than just a few friends. Could he be leaving behind the possibility of a healthy future before he finally accepts his past?

The next book in the Rise Again Warrior series, Mission: Repair, will be released in November 2020 for Veteran's Day.

Ratings and reviews

Ms. Eaton is a new author for me, and after reading this story , I have become a fan. Aside from an engaging storyline and interesting characters, what grabbed my attention was the theme. While the brave men and women are willing to put themselves in danger to allow us at home to live in a free country, we forget that they need our support upon their return. Especially, because many suffer not only physical but also emotional and psychologically. Kudos to the author for that reminder. I was entrusted a copy of this book. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

Mission: Accept by Stacy Eaton is the second book in the Rise Again Warrior Series and definitely worth reading if you love stories that revolve around military, family and friends. Dana has no idea what it takes to make it in the real world because her parents have always given her everything she wants and needs, but her father has had enough with her selfish ways. He is cutting her off and expects her to get a job so he suggests she ask her cousin Shane who started and runs RAW, a place where former military personnel can go to heal emotionally, mentally and physically in order to make their way in the civilian world. Derek is a homeless veteran by choice and wonders why Dana even bothers to make an effort to be nice to him until one night he saves her from being attacked and she does everything that she can to make sure that he survives. They form a bond, but since they are so different the friendship is really unstable and might not last not only because of their many difference, but also because of his past. I really enjoyed this story and look forward to reading more in the future. I was given an ARC from the author/publisher. All conclusions are mine and mine alone.

I cannot say enough how this book effected me. Dana is being cut off and gets a job with her cousin Shane at Rise Again Warriors. Dana meets Derek as a chance meeting and it will change their lives. Derek lives on the streets by choice, he needs to finish his mission. The military have it tough and this book is just more of an eye opener for people. I cannot wait to read the rest of the series. The characters are so realistic, and the story flows really well. Job well done. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
