In a war that history would forget, their love will be remembered.
In the final year of the Korean War, two strangers—Frank Nunez, a principled junior officer and second-generation Puerto Rican immigrant, and Geri Vincent, a fiercely independent Army nurse from rural Illinois with a haunted past—meet in a moment that changes everything. Their whirlwind romance becomes a lifeline amid the horror of the Korean War.
As Frank is thrown into the brutal chaos of combat, his newlywed bride tends to the broken and the dying in a military hospital overwhelmed by casualties only a few miles from the front-line trenches, all the while fighting her own private war against childhood trauma and a bitterness that threatens to destroy her young, fragile marriage.
A devastating loss sends their lives spiraling apart, and when Frank goes missing in action during one of the war’s fiercest battles, Geri must confront the grief, guilt, and long-buried fears that have shaped her identity. Left to navigate the agonizing purgatory between hope and despair, Geri faces the emotional wreckage of war and a final battle for her own soul.
Spanning battlefield trenches, Army hospital wards, and intimate confession, The Yawning Hill to Heaven explores the complicated grace of love. Not just a war story, not just a love story, but a spiritual survival story told with stunning emotional depth and unflinching realism.
The Yawning Hill to Heaven is a sweeping tale of courage, love, and the power of forgiveness.

5.0 out of 5 stars Riveting
Verified PurchaseI admit to being biased. The author is a friend of many years.
I had no idea of the backstory of his life and that of his parents - who I never met. He has done a great job of keeping the story moving and showing the raw elements of a young couple living through tumultuous times. Imagine being 22 or 23 years old and going through what they endured!

5.0 out of 5 stars True Korean War Story
Verified PurchaseInformative novel on the Korean War.
I've never read anything about the war and found the book's focus on the author's parents' actual experiences interesting. Great read, easy flow!
