Great value collection of SEAL stories

Brett - 4*

Elite SEAL Brett is sent to rescue hostages from a yacht but when he discovers one of the hostages is now single ex-girlfriend Ceci and her kids it becomes much more personal. Ceci had walked away from Brett trying to find a way to heal but ended up a widow raising two kids. The master plan for life was to stay single and avoid the pain that relationships often come with but when she sees Brett she realises she was fooling herself. When safe suddenly becomes dangerous she realises she might not get a chance to correct her mistake - will everyone stay safe and can Ceci fix things?

This was a sweet story of the pain that can come with relationships and how communication is key. Add to that danger, determined killers and a hot SEAL and you get a recipe for lots of emotions, soul-searching and passion. The story was fairly believable and easy to get into so that you needed to know what was going to happen next. Well written and very enjoyable.

Devlin - 4*

Devlin is in Afghanistan helping to train the Afghan soldiers and is doing some additional training on the latest drones but when a murder is committed on the base and suspicion is thrown on the drone's designer he can't stop himself from helping her. When they return Stateside another company employee is murdered and again the designer is accused of committing it. Thing is Bristol never wanted to take time off her schedule to take the latest models to Afghanistan she finds herself without her notes, her best friend and now is being unfairly accused. Can Devlin keep Bristol alive, her business alive and her reputation intact?

This was a sweet story showing how the SEAL family pull together to help each other (and those they love) to thwart the bad guys and let the truth speak for itself. I loved the way the relationship between Devlin and Bristol built up to something far more meaningful. Well written and very enjoyable, this had a lovely HEA at the end.

Easton - 4*

Easton is looking forward to this trip to the Canadian wilderness for joint military training, but when he meets photographer Summer taking photos for the new marketing materials on the trip, it takes on a new twist. Summer knows she gets so taken with the art of what she is doing she can be seen as forgetful, but she loves to travel and can take care of herself if she needs to. So when she is stalked and is attacked, Easton realises she needs help from him to stay alive which gets much worse as the violence escalates and he comes close to losing a woman he can't stay away from. Can Easton keep her alive and can Summer get fully under his defences?

Goodness Easton fought the attraction all the way even though it was obvious how he felt (if only he could admit it to himself). I think Summer would infuriate me to the point of screaming at times, although I'm sure everyone knows of someone like her in life. Well written and very enjoyable, it was great to see a woman keep one of the SEALs completely confused. I'm just SO glad he came to his sense at the end!
