Disliked Heroine - could not relate to her and took too long to get her back story to understand why she keeps pulling back. Too melodramatic ending in Chapters 18 and 19. Some very good writing in places - engaging wordsmithing.
Loved Hero - loved the patience he showed when she kept green light/red light/green lighting him several times when they were on the verge of intimacy.
Absolutely loved that author made a point of creating a hero who was an average looking nice guy, but his energies, personality, patience and heart made him attractive.

Worst Harlequin I've read in a while. I would venture a guess that Jillian Burns is a virgin by her lack of creative writing in the embarrasingly novice sex scenes. This is a very typical romance between a young lingerie model girl and an "older" Navy SEAL (BTW the cover dude doesn't look like the image of a Navy SEAL) The story feels forced. She needs protecting and he can protect her. I don't want to give anything away but I was counting the pages until the end. Save yourself and pick a different book.
Piper is the hot model on mend after having some hard partying ways. Neil is a navy seal from a good family. When piper meets Neil, chemistry happens between them. Can piper open up to Neil about her past and can Neil lie to piper about his wife. Simple romance read.
