Strike Back

Echo Platoon #4.6

by Marliss Melton

He hunts terrorists on land and online, but he can’t get his love life together.

Stuart Rudolph is more than just a Navy SEAL. In his spare time, he uses his unsurpassed computer skills to protect American interests. Moonlighting for Ghost Security Group is supposed to keep Stu too preoccupied to obsess over Hilary Alcorn, the woman he loved and foolishly lost. If only he could start over…

Hilary Alcorn longs to get her mojo back. She hasn’t been the same confident girl si\nce Stuart Rudolph captured her heart and then broke it. Dating her mysterious next-door neighbor seems like a harmless first step. Wouldn’t you know, Stu shows up, claiming her neighbor is a terrorist. Ridiculous!

As the dangers of Stu’s work impact the woman he loves, Stu uses every skill in his arsenal to save both their lives, hoping all the while it isn’t too late to claim Hilary as his own.

Strike Back (Echo Platoon #4.6), my tenth read from author Marliss Melton. Enjoyable, tightly woven & well-written romantic suspense. I'd received a free Audible copy of Take Cover (Echo Platoon #4.5) and read it & enjoyed it greatly and decided to read the series. “I received a free copy of this book and I'm voluntarily leaving a review." Author Craig A. Hart's narration adds to the enjoyment of the book. The gifting of this book did not affect my opinion of it. I'll be reading more from this author and in this series. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

I am glad this Seal named Stuart had his story told. While I will give credit that having a story told about a Seal that has Asperger's was a great exercise in diversity, I was not overly enthusiastic about his overall character build.

Nice Short Story

I have read several of Marliss Melton's books and all of them are lovely exciting stories. I hope to see her in print again very soon...

Way too predictable. Just a very short story.
