Love After War is a literary fiction book by author Cheris Hodges.
Club owner Adrian Bryant discovers his biological father is hotel magnate Elliot Crawford, his life slowly unraveling. Crawford shunned while he and his mother argued, Adrian hatched a high-profile plan to ruin the Crawford name – and the reputations of his two half-brothers. To protect the woman he loves from the hell he intends to free, Adrian must let her go. Photographer Dana Singleton is heartbroken and confused by Adrian’s behaviour. She abandons their relationship, she sets out to uncover the truth – and a dark side of Adrian that she never knew existed. The stakes are high, she’ll have to ask herself if she can love a man so capable of revenge – or if he can learn to forgive…

In Love After the War, Cheris Hodges does a great job of showing how rejection is the birthplace of contempt. Adrian Bryant’s character successfully demonstrates how revenge can rob someone of peace. He doesn’t get the satisfaction he’s looking for by exacting revenge on his “sperm-for” father and half-brothers because it doesn’t change the past. In Dana Singleton, Hodges shows the saving power of forgiveness and how it frees the forgiver.

The lesson Dana can impart to Adrian, as she forgives the hurt he’s caused her and lets go of the dishonesty he nurtured while trying to punish her father for refusing. Her love shows him how to let go of the past and embrace a promising future. Through the dynamics of their relationship and Adrian’s relationship with his estranged family, readers see the value of a second chance even when it makes no sense to embrace it. Love is the only thing that brings peace after the battle against self, the past and the injustice of life. Hodges added too much steam to show the chemical reaction between the two. Love After War is a story of redemption by fire and heart. I hope this story inspires Richmond Crawford.
