This is the 11th book in the series.
This book is better after having read the prior books due to meeting our hero and heroine in them.
Our hero has loved the heroine from afar for years after realizing the person he thought of as a little girl had grown up into an adult. However, she's years younger than him and he was a POW with her father and has a strong bond with him, so its a no go zone. However, the feelings haven't gone away and were getting harder to be around her and not act upon them. Then to see her with others...
Our heroine had a girl crush on our hero. However, over the past few years its changed from a crush into love. However, he won't have anything to do with her because of how much younger she is and because he works with her father. Its so frustrating! However, when she passes out and comes to with a dead body of one of the hero's squadron that's been left behind and our hero is second in charge.
Our hero runs to her aid as her mother is on bed rest and due to give birth soon and her father is deployed, so he's the only one around that can help her. Upon being checked out they find she was given a drug to knock her out. However, he can't leave her unprotected and feels like someone's out to get her.
Will they figure out who it is? Why they are doing it? How can they get around the hero and the heroine's father being friends but the heroine and hero need each other? Or will it fail and they won't be together?
The hero and heroine are both likable, however the story line was pretty good but not register in my memory as to what it was about. Because of this, I had to skim the book to remember what the plot was and things that happened within it.
I did like how the ending turned out and how the main characters handled the emotional stuff. The parental sides of the heroine's father (if you remember him from the past book) is hard to believe because of how he was in that book.
Its a good read, but again, it didn't keep well in my mind, so I didn't have much of a connection to it.

I started reading this series last year and found it to be quite dated, lots of home-makers with brave military men. Even when that wasn't their role it had that vibe. So I stopped reading them.
But I decided to give the next book, this one, a try. And I didn't have the same issues.
Nikki is a teacher, seven months ago she had a night with Carson but he left the next morning and never called her. Carson is 12 years older, her father's superior officer, and an alcoholic. His night with Nikki was a low point, waking naked in bed with a beautiful girl who he knows is off-limits and no recollection of what happened - awkward!
Then Nikki wakes up in bed with the dead body of her ex-boyfriend on the floor - and no recollection of what happened. Nikki is clearly a suspect, but then accidents start happening and she is in danger.
Whilst looking after Nikki Carson becomes her friend but soon they both realise that they still have feelings for each other.
As usual Carson thinks he knows best but unlike most heroines Nikki calls him on his attitude.
The suspense is mild, the romance is PG but it was a nice read and it has made me more likely to read the rest of the series.

ooooookay I have some problemto stay awake myself reading this book, really slow for the 3/4 of the story.
Plus I didn't feel any passion between hero and heroine. The were a bit spent and so the problem to stay awake.
low on the suspence grade too.
Onl the ending was a little better hence 3 stars. Onto the next one!

Perfect amount of mystery, suspense, and romance. Just when you thought all the suspense was over there was another twist in the story. Kept you wondering down to the very last page. I think I would have rated higher if I had read previous books in this series. I just didn't know what the book was talking about when past experiences were brought up. Cover = hot haha
