Noyes: Book Review"},"content":{"rendered":"

\"Ask<\/a>Ask, Tell by E.J. Noyes<\/b><\/span> highlights the inner struggles of a woman\u2019s heart caught in the crossfire of love and duty. This is Noyes\u2019 debut novel, and she is fast becoming a favorite on my book shelf. <\/span><\/p>\n

Captain Sabine Fleischer is a skilled and dedicated U.S. Army surgeon deployed in Afghanistan. She is also one of the thousands of troops who is forced to serve in silence because of the military\u2019s anti-gay policy of \u201cDon\u2019t Ask, Don\u2019t Tell (DADT).\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

In her Unit, Sabine deals with a lot as a soldier in a war-torn country. Soon the casualties of war turn more personal as Sabine\u2019s long-term relationship ends unexpectedly. She knows she should feel more sad for the loss, but someone else has garnered her attention. And lately, those secret desires are becoming harder and harder to suppress.<\/p>\n

Colonel Rebecca Keane is an enigmatic career officer who runs the surgical unit like clockwork. She is well liked and respected, and she walks a fine line between professionalism and personal connection. Sabine knows Rebecca is way off-limits, but she can\u2019t help fantasizing about her. Especially when Rebecca starts giving Sabine subtle hints that she may harbor the same feelings. When Sabine takes an unexpected trip home, she is able to gain clarity on her break-up, as well as the intentions of Colonel Rebecca Keane.<\/p>\n

Will Sabine be allowed to express her feelings for Rebecca? Or will both women be forever bound to duty and let their desires go unfulfilled?<\/span><\/p>\n

The Characters<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

Noyes\u2019 characters embody what I would expect from an LGBTQ soldier. They have their outward fa\u00e7ade they project to their fellow troops, then they have their true identities hiding below the surface. <\/span><\/p>\n

Sabine is a model soldier. She is well-liked and is damn good at her job. She is also quiet, reserved, and a mystery to all except her best friend, Mitch. This is by design to show how much Sabine has to hide so as not to give away her sexual identity. While her actions are required to keep her military position, it is not without its consequences. One of which is an unrequited attraction to her commanding officer that can never be experienced or explored.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rebecca is not only an amazing surgeon, she is also a great leader. Like Sabine she is a mystery, yet we aren\u2019t entirely sure why. Noyes gives us is Sabine\u2019s view of Rebecca \u2013 her talent, her intelligence, her beauty, and most importantly her wedding band. As the layers of both women are peeled back to reveal the truth, you feel a strong sense of understanding and compassion for how much of themselves they must hide in order to serve the country they love.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Writing Style<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

I really love how Noyes is able to get below the surface of the DADT legislation. She really captures the longing, the heart-break, and especially the isolation that LGBTQ soldiers had to endure because the alternative was being deemed unfit to serve by their own government. I applaud Noyes for getting to the heart of the matter and giving a very important representation of what living and serving under this legislation truly meant for LGBTQ men and women of service.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Pros<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

Noyes totally blew my mind from the first sentence. I went in timidly, and I came away awaiting her next release with baited breath. If that\u2019s not a pro, I don\u2019t know what is.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Cons<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

I really didn\u2019t want it to end. Luckily, Noyes is releasing a sequel soon, so my con will be no more.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"annas<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>The Conclusion<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

I applaud Noyes for tackling the subject of \u201cDon\u2019t Ask, Don\u2019t Tell\u201d head-on and giving us such a great love story. Her writing is crisp, witty, and she has a firm grasp on the art of storytelling. If this is how she starts her writing career, then she has a bright future. Please pick up this amazing story and be introduced to a very talented and amazing author.<\/span><\/p>\n

Excerpt from <\/b><\/span>Ask, Tell by E.J. Noyes<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

I\u2019ve wanted Rebecca Keane from the moment I first saw her perform surgery. I\u2019d only been deployed for three days on my first tour and instead of concentrating on our patient, I found my eyes drawn to the strands of wavy blond hair that had escaped her scrub cap. Wide, dark blue eyes creased when she smiled over her mask at me and I forgot how to verbalize, mumbling something stupid about a liver.<\/span><\/p>\n

My shallow thoughts about her beauty took a backseat when I saw how effortlessly she negotiated what seemed to be a lost cause. Confident, yet never demanding. Skilled and calm. She tilted her head as she asked my opinion, then her eyes held mine as she agreed with it.<\/span><\/p>\n

My want of her isn\u2019t anything deep or well thought out, but more the way you see a coat in a store window and think right away I want that. Then you remember you already have a coat.<\/span><\/p>\n
