Ian and Faith
I thoroughly enjoyed this story and Faith is so strong, intelligent and just an awesome lady. I know the story started out as her wanting to help Ian have a place to heal from his injury and it actually worked out for them and his team that she was not only one of their teachers, but that the house she bought and renovated was big enough for the team members to live there was well, but also crazy that she never realized that tenants before her had actually hidden drugs and money from a dangerous Mexican cartel, but luckily for her and her Seal team family the evil cartel got what he deserved. Happy reading.

I really liked how Ian came off as old and grumpy at the start. It was fun to watch him get put on his ass just by meeting Faith. Faith was fun, such a breath of fresh air and these SEAL's really didn't know what to make of her, but they knew they wanted to be around her. It was fun to see Faith make a point of getting to know the boys and how they all knew it was coming, were determined to not tell her things, but in the end they all spilled.
The happenings at the house were crazy! It was such a good thing Faith had Ian and the boys at her back. They were able to help her in so many ways, but especially when the danger in imminent.
Loved to see how this one ended, with the house becoming SEAL central and Faith taking care of her boys, people that genuinely appreciated her, not like some.

2.5 Stars Underdeveloped & Predictable
This was an underdeveloped, predictable and somewhat cliché military romance. I did like the alpha male characters, overall, but the older female lead character was way too sappy, and anything but mature. There were many contradictions within the characters, and the underlying mystery was less than intriguing. Additionally, the sensual scenes were lacking…just not enough detail/description to connect you to the romance..very PG-13. This romance just needs to be more developed, and made more enticing. DNF at 65%

Beautiful
This is not just action packed it's romantic. Faith rents a room to Ivan who is a injured Navy SEAL. Soon they discover her newly bought historic is being destroyed, then her life is threatened. It's Ian to the rescue along with the rest of his team. This is a great read. There is foul language but otherwise it's clean.

Loved this!
Mary Kennedy, I love your books. Your books are engaging, beautifully written and I fall in love with every character except the bad guys. Reaper Security is another score, I am on book eleven right now. I caught a burb offbeat for this book and I had to read it. Time well spent. Five stars!

Ian & Faith
Yay!! I am thrilled to start another series by this author. I absolutely loved Ian and Faith together and seriously loved the parental role they take with the Seal Team. The brotherhood is strong but a mommas love is stronger.

great book
This is a well written, interesting story with some twists and turns. I enjoy the way Mary Kennedy integrated all the characters here at the beginning so the series can be a cohesive whole.

Usual high standard
Great story, read in one sitting as I couldn’t put it down. I really like the danger she brings to the story, making it interesting and off course the humour
