October 8, 2017SEAL Team Ten's Alpha Squad: Capt. Joe Catalanotto (Cat), 2nd in Command Lt. Blue McCoy, Alan Francisco (Frisco), his replacement was Ensign Harlan Jones, Jr. (Cowboy), Sr. Chief Daryl Becker (Harvard), Lucky O'Donlon (Frisco's swim buddy), Bobby and Wes.
Frisco's Kid: Alan Francisco had watched the SEAL's training from the time he was a small boy. His father and siblings all had problems with alcohol and he was determined not to follow in their footsteps and became a SEAL. The SEAL team became his family.
5 years had gone by since he was wounded. He couldn't accept the fact that he was permanently injured and his knee would never heal properly. He would never return to active duty. He thought his life was over. He was offered a teaching position and felt the pressure of "those who could did, those who couldn't teach." He quit the Navy and went home to nurse his wounds.
Frisco didn't know any of his neighbors and Mia Summerton was one of them. She was a high school history teacher and knew that he was in the military. She stopped by to see if he might be interested talking to her class at school but was disappointed in his attitude. She could tell he was angry and resented any offer of help she offered. He was in a lot of pain and had to rely heavily on a cane to walk.
She was outside working in her garden one morning and saw him arguing with a woman. The child, Natasha, saw her and came by to talk to her. Mia found out that the 5 yr old was his niece.
Mia noticed that they were having trouble getting groceries upstairs and offered help after Frisco had tried to set up a pulley system and the grocery bags busted open. She gave him her cloth bags to use. Frisco came to rely on her bit by bit and she was happy to help. She didn't believe in guns and war and that was something they agreed to disagree about.
Tasha had a hard time learning that she couldn't leave his place without telling him. She was used to taking care of herself because her mom was an alcoholic and didn't pay much attention to her. Frisco had to explain to Tasha that her mother had been involved in a car accident. She had to go into court ordered detox as a result.
Tasha went to the beach early the next day and met Thomas King. Thomas had been a student of Mia's and had gone into the ocean to get Tasha. Frisco didn't trust him at first but they became friends and Frisco began teaching Tasha how to swim. Thomas and Mia occasionally helped Frisco but it was at their insistence rather than Frisco asking for any help. Tasha often played like she was a Russian princess and Thomas' last name was King. Tasha told Frisco that she was going to marry him when she grew up because a princess needed a king. Thomas found out and told her that they would talk again when she turned 26.
They went and purchased some furniture for Tasha. A man called Dwayne paid them a visit. Tasha had already told Frisco that they had lived with him and that he had hit her. Dwayne picked a fight with Frisco and took him down by kicking him a couple of times in his bad knee. He left before the cops came and Frisco ended up in the hospital with more pain and swelling in his knee. Mia came by to help him and to keep an eye on Tasha. Tasha got sick that night and Frisco had to go to Mia and ask for help getting Tasha to the Emergency room. Mia was falling for Frisco and she knew that he wanted her too. They ended up having sex that night after they got home from the hospital.
He went to see his sister to find out why Dwayne was looking her and she told Frisco that she owed him $5,000. He had left Tasha with Mia and Dwayne went into his condo. Mia called the police when she heard him break in. He tore apart the condo but didn't make it to the bedrooms before the cops came and he split. He told Mia that he would take care of Dwayne and she knew he was wearing a gun.
They went to a friends cabin and they got into an argument after she told him that she was in love with him. He was trying to push her away. She was on her way back to the cabin when she ran into Dwayne. Dwayne had knocked Thomas out and taken Tasha. Now he had Mia and Tasha. He had her drive them to one of his houses. This time, Frisco was not too proud to ask for help.
He called the captain of his SEAL team and they all came to his aid and rescued them. He was going to have Tasha for awhile because her mother was going to jail. She had taken $50,000 from Dwayne and was going to be charged with other offenses for helping him.
Frisco asked and Mia agreed to marry him after he told her that he was going to become a SEAL instructor. He also told Mia that he was in love with her. Frisco had become whole in his mind again. Her motto became his. "Those who are taught, do. Those who teach, shape the future."
Everyday, Average Jones: Melody Evans, Kurt Matthews and Christopher Sterling were hostages in a foreign embassy after rebels had taken control of their American Embassy. The SEAL's had been sent to rescue them. Kurt and Chris seemed more concerned as to how much money would be paid for their ransom and what TV shows they be invited on. Melody wanted to get out and cooperated. They had to knock out Kurt and carry him out. He and Chris were afraid there were too many of the enemy to get free. They were willing to wait. The SEAL's had other ideas.
They split up and Melody remained with Cowboy, from Ft Worth and Harvard, who had attended Harvard because the helicopter that was supposed to pick them up never showed. They had a lot of ground to cover and Melody never complained though her feet were raw and bleeding from her new shoes. Cowboy had to kill 4 guys and disable a few planes. They escaped in one and flew home. Cowboy recognized his attraction to Melody and kissed her before they were separated to be checked out. He told her he would see her at dinner that night.
7 months later found Melody living with her divorced sister and very pregnant. Her and Jones had spent 6 days and nights together before he was called back to duty. She was now living her her childhood home in Massachusetts. Her neighbors foster child had thrown a baseball through their dining room window. Jones called and left a message telling her he wasn't too far away and wanted to see her. She called and told him she was busy but he took time off and came to visit. She was talking with Andy and started to run after him and it was Jones who caught him. He didn't recognize the woman chasing him and when he saw that she had fainted, he went to help her out. That's when he noticed that it was Melody.
Jones returned to the base on Monday morning and asked for a 30 day leave for personal reasons. It ended up where the team was given a teaching assignment that wasn't working out. The team was to be assigned to Alaska and they instead all requested a 30 day leave. Jones went back to camp out in a tent in Melody and Brittany's backyard. He met Andy and decided to teach him a few things like not to drink, how to build up his endurance and how to fight to defend himself. He asked Melody to marry him and she refused. Not because she wasn't attracted to him but because they didn't know each other and she didn't want to tie him down with a wife and kid he didn't want.
Andy and Britany didn't get along at all until she was left with him as he was doing some research in the library and Jones left her with him to check on Melody. Melody had a hard pregnancy and was often finding herself dizzy and sick. Jones went to check on her while Andy was in the library and they went inside to find he and Brittany playing video games. Brittany told him he was welcome to come over anytime and use her computer. Andy did that until one day the sheriff came by and entered Melody's house to accuse him of breaking into a house. Andy was upset because he thought that no one believed that he didn't do it. Andy had found out that the guy always picking a fight with him had done it. Andy went to the quarry and dove in to scare the guy while Andy used the time everyone was looking in the quarry for him to leave town to see if he could find his father. His father was at an Army base that housed the worst of the lot. He didn't recognize Andy and didn't want him around. Melody and Jones figured out that he might be at the bus station and found him there. They took him back home.
There was a meeting and his foster family's house and Britt was going. She told Melody that she was going to try and adopt him. That was the day after they brought him back to town and Melody was supposed to start her Lamaze classes. Jones ended up taking her. He was planning on telling Melody that he had fallen in love with her but couldn't work up the courage. She asked him to stay the night with her and knew that she was in love with him.
Jones left back to his team the next morning. Melody acted like she didn't care much and he left with a broken heart. He felt that Andy had jumped in the quarry and run off because of him. He felt like he wouldn't be a good parent because of he being a SEAL and being gone so much. He gave up on asking Melody to marry him and agreed that he would settle for visitation.
He was grouchy and easily agitated into fighting when he returned to his team. They were called out almost immediately. Harvard talked to him and told him that he was surprised that he had given in so easily and that it was obvious that he was in love with her and should have told her. He tried calling her on the phone but was cut off before he could say "I love you." They went to South America to rescue a group of people whose plane had been hijacked. He returned to find a stack of messages from Brittany. Melody had been dreaming and woke up covered in blood. She was in the hospital needing a C-section but wouldn't sign the papers. The placenta had separated and was causing problems. Jones flew straight to Massachusetts from his mission and got her to sign the papers. He told her that he loved her and wanted to marry her, not just for the baby's sake. He didn't want her to postpone the procedure because he life was at risk and she meant too much for him to lose her.
They named the baby Tyler and she was no longer living with her sister. Brittany had adopted Andy. Melody was living with Jones near the base where the team was currently stationed. Melody had asked that Harvard be his best man at their wedding.

This contains books 3 & 4 from Suzanne Brockmann’s Tall Dark and Dangerous series which is in the process of being re-released as 2-in-1’s with fancy new (and sexy) covers. With their delicious alpha male heroes and just the right amount of action, suspense and melodrama to keep you coming back for more, these well written quickie romances are totally addictive.
Using proper military jargon Brockmann gives us larger than life Navy SEALs, capable of anything it seems except falling in love easily. With each story just different enough from the last that it feels fresh and unique while still connecting the series as a whole. The love scenes are soft yet still erotic (requiring just slightly more imagination and without the dirty words) and her amazing dialogue will draw you in, making the whole falling in love within days seem plausible. While each can be read as a stand-alone as with all romantic series they seem to work best when read in order due to the continuing or evolving story arcs. This is a fun, sexy, exciting series and I dare you not to fall for any member of SEAL team tens alpha squad.
First up was Frisco's Kid (Tall, Dark and Dangerous #3) and this story hit my soft spot as I love a tortured hero. Injured inPrince Joe Frisco has been undergoing operations on his shattered knee ever since. He’s just been let go from rehab however, being told he’s as fixed as he’s ever going to get. Frustrated, angry and in constant pain Frisco refuses to accept this outcome or the teaching job he was just offered, retreating instead to his 2nd floor condo where he hit’s the bottle. Before long his well meaning neighbour Mia is sticking her nose in, trying to assist her rude and often drunk neighbour. When Frisco’s wayward sister dumps her 5 year old daughter into his care he feels helpless, however this forces him to turn to Mia and a friendship soon develops. When it appears that Mia might have genuine feelings for him Frisco panics; he’s a shell of the man he used to be, what could he possibly offer her? As Frisco pulls away his sisters nasty ex-boyfriend turns up and kidnappings, gunplay, and car chases ensue with Frisco calling on alpha team for backup.
In Everyday, Average Jones when the American embassy Melody Evans is working in is overtaken by terrorists it doesn’t take long for the Navy SEALs to come to their rescue however it does take them 2 days to reach the middle eastern border and a flight to freedom. During those tense few days Melody comes to trust her daring and charismatic rescuer with her life. Blaming the extreme circumstances on the ensuing week of passion they share together in Paris. However Melody doesn’t want a relationship with a hero who risks his life on a daily basis, she plans on settling down with a everyday, average man. So when Jones gets called back to duty she thanks him for the laughs and breaks things off.
7 months later Jones gets reassigned to the east coast and because he hasn’t been able to forget about Melody he looks her up. Shocked to discover that she’s pregnant but being an honourable guy Cowboy Jones dons his dress whites and asks her to marry him. The only thing is she doesn’t want him and no amount of camping in her backyard or doing normal suburban type things will make her change her mind. My least favourite in the series, this started with so much potential but after the ‘secret baby’ storyline emerged I couldn’t stand the heroine or the ongoing conflict between her and Jones. However we do get a lot of interaction with the rest of the SEAL team and some great supporting characters.

Tall, Dark, and Fearless comprises two stories about Navy Seals who are part of the elite Alpha Ten squad.
The first part of this book: Frisco's Kid centers on Lt. Alan "Frisco" Francisco who was injured in an operation five years ago and has been in intense physical therapy to recover from a knee injury that has left him disabled. Readers follow him as he mourns the loss of being an active duty Navy Seal who has been dedicated to saving and protecting others. The central conflict is whether Frisco can accept the fact that he can no longer serve in the field but still serve in other capacities.
Frisco is angry and bitter after he is released from the VA hospital and returns to his apartment to wallow in his despair. He is forced to walk with a cane and endures constant pain as he continually pushes himself to try to regain his former mobility. He withdraws from his world feeling that he is just an “empty shell” of the man he used to be. However the unexpected entrance of his neighbor Mia and his five-year-old niece, Natasha, who is forced upon him while his sister is in drub rehab. Mia initially wants nothing to do with Frisco because of his cynical attitude towards life in general. He feels frustrated that he is forced to ask for help and has to rely on others to assist in taking care of his niece. Frisco and Mia’s relationship starts out rocky but as they gradually get to know each other, Mia finds herself drawn to this man who carries so much emotional baggage:
He was everything she didn’t need. His wounds so deep and so catastrophic. She could handle his physical limitation… It was his emotional baggage-the bitterness and anger he carried with him-that had the bulk and the weight to engulf her and drag her down too. (pg 209)
A plot is further complicated by a villain who kidnaps Mia and Natasha forcing Frisco to call upon his former teammates for help. A powerful story that reinforces the concept that you are only helpless if you refuse to ask for help.

The second story in this book is called Everyday, Average Jones and focuses on Lt. Harlan "Cowboy" Jones who is part of a rescue mission that brings home three hostages who have been help captive by terrorists in a foreign country. Cowboy takes responsibility for assisting one of the hostages, Melody Evans in returning to the U.S. As they work together to escape, Melody grows to trust and depend upon Cowboy to keep her safe. The attraction between them intensifies, and once the rescue mission is complete Cowboy and Melody spend 6 passion filled days together before Melody returns home and Cowboy is sent on another mission. Melody enjoys their time together but considers this to be just a fling, and she has no plans to continue seeing Cowboy ever again. She tells her sister, Brittany, "What I felt for him wasn't love. It was hero worship."
Jump ahead seven months later and we find that Melody has become pregnant with Cowboy's child. She plans to keep the child but does not tell Cowboy about the pregnancy. She's up to being a single mother. However, over these past seven months Cowboy realizes he doesn't want to let Melody go. When the team is sent to Virginia for a training assignment, Cowboy decides to look Melody up. Eventually Cowboy discovers that he is going to become a dad and the central conflict resolves around whether he and Melody should marry for the sake of the child. Melody believes that passion and lust are not enough to make a marriage work, while Cowboy believes that a child needs a father in his or her life. The story line isn't original, but what makes the read enjoyable are the unconventional ways Cowboy uses to try to convince Melody to give him a chance.

Readers follow him as he mourns the loss of being an active duty Navy Seal who has been dedicated to saving and protecting others. The central conflict is whether Frisco can accept the fact that he can no longer serve in the field but still serve in other capacities.
Frisco is angry and bitter after he is released from the VA hospital and returns to his apartment to wallow in his despair. He is forced to walk with a cane and endures constant pain as he continually pushes himself to try to regain his former mobility. He withdraws from his world feeling that he is just an “empty shell” of the man he used to be. However the unexpected entrance of his neighbor Mia and his five-year-old niece, Natasha, who is forced upon him while his sister is in drub rehab. Mia initially wants nothing to do with Frisco because of his cynical attitude towards life in general. He feels frustrated that he is forced to ask for help and has to rely on others to assist in taking care of his niece. Frisco and Mia’s relationship starts out rocky but as they gradually get to know each other, Mia finds herself drawn to this man who carries so much emotional baggage:
He was everything she didn’t need. His wounds so deep and so catastrophic. She could handle his physical limitation… It was his emotional baggage-the bitterness and anger he carried with him-that had the bulk and the weight to engulf her and drag her down too. (pg 209)
A plot is further complicated by a villain who kidnaps Mia and Natasha forcing Frisco to call upon his former teammates for help. A powerful story that reinforces the concept that you are only helpless if you refuse to ask for help.

The second story in this book is called Everyday, Average Jones and focuses on Lt. Harlan "Cowboy" Jones who is part of a rescue mission that brings home three hostages who have been help captive by terrorists in a foreign country. Cowboy takes responsibility for assisting one of the hostages, Melody Evans in returning to the U.S. As they work together to escape, Melody grows to trust and depend upon Cowboy to keep her safe. The attraction between them intensifies, and once the rescue mission is complete Cowboy and Melody spend 6 passion filled days together before Melody returns home and Cowboy is sent on another mission. Melody enjoys their time together but considers this to be just a fling, and she has no plans to continue seeing Cowboy ever again. She tells her sister, Brittany, "What I felt for him wasn't love. It was hero worship."
Jump ahead seven months later and we find that Melody has become pregnant with Cowboy's child. She plans to keep the child but does not tell Cowboy about the pregnancy. She's up to being a single mother. However, over these past seven months Cowboy realizes he doesn't want to let Melody go. When the team is sent to Virginia for a training assignment, Cowboy decides to look Melody up. Eventually Cowboy discovers that he is going to become a dad and the central conflict resolves around whether he and Melody should marry for the sake of the child. Melody believes that passion and lust are not enough to make a marriage work, while Cowboy believes that a child needs a father in his or her life. The story line isn't original, but what makes the read enjoyable are the unconventional ways Cowboy uses to try to convince Melody to give him a chance.

Frisco's Kid - This series just keeps getting better and better. Frisco's Kid is a wonderful romance, with an edge. Some real, still very timely issues, are spotlighted. Wounded warriors, their very real personal battles and alcohol dependency affect on families are two of the major ones.
Frisco nearly lost his life 5 years ago saving a worthless prince who was in Bagdad when the USA invaded. Frisco was left with a shattered right knee and having to face the rest of his life without the one thing he loved most, the SEALS. After 5 years the Navy has decided that Frisco is not going to recover more than he already had and discharges him from the rehab center. Frisco is angry and more than a little scared. He no sooner moves back in to his condo that his next door neighbor, Mia, shows up. Frisco did not make a favorable first impression, to say the least. The next morning Frisco's sister, Sharon, shows up needing to leave her daughter with him. Just what he needs. Mia happens to witness the whole lovely scene. As it turns out, Tasha is just what Frisco needs to take his focus off himself and his limitations. She also helps to bring Frisco and Mia together. In addition to Tasha, Sharon left a very big problem behind. Frisco has to accept he now has limitations and ask for help. He comes to realize that there really is no "I" in Team.
Everyday Average Jones The beginning and the ending are 5 star. The middle... lacked a lot for me. Overall it was a good book, not as good as the previous books, but still a good book. I especially liked that in this book SB wrote about the actual SEAL mission.
Melody is an Administrative Assistant for an Ambassador in some armpit middle eastern country whose government has been overthrown. She and two others are being held hostage and SEAL Team 10 Alpha Squad is sent to the rescue. Cowboy Harlen Jones is tasked with the convincing the hostages to go. Melody instantly trusts Jones, the other two have their doubts. Melody and Jones really, really hit it off and end up spending the next 6 days in bed. After that Melody says had a great time, so-long to Jones. Fast forward 7 months and Jones decides that he still has a thing for Melody, contacts her, she rebuffs him, he shows up in her hometown and she is...very pregnant. Jones does the math and decides it is his baby. The rest of the book Jones is trying to get Melody to marry him.

2 stars for the first story and 3 for the second. I wish the writer had a few more chapters to each; both ending felt rushed. And the first story was very condensed, but the characters were interesting.

Ugh. Mia and Melody DO NOT DESERVE EITHER MEN.
Mia is to left wing for Frisco. He views are completely screwed up regarding his profession. The only thing that came out good regarding her was the fact she helped him realize that he could do anything even if he could go back to being active duty seal. The entire time I was reading was was going through her head I wanted to slap her. I really Liked Thomas though too. Frisco you could really feel the pain he suffered. I could never imagine being disable after doing so much good in the would rescuing people from harm. I really liked him and am glad that he choose his new profession and finally started asking for help.
Now onto the careless and cold hearted Melody.I can't stand her. In the beginning i truly had high hopes for her. The way she trusted Cowboy completely. How she stood up to the other hostage about what him and his team do. The we forward seven months and she doesn't care to tell him she is pregnant. How selfish of her. Then she practically tell him to goes screw himself she doesn't need him. She knew he grew up with a father hardly there. Why the hell would he do the same. How could she think so low of him. You could tell from the first time them met he loved her. GAH. I wanted to slap her she. She still doesn't deserve him even after everything that happened.
I love Cowboy though. He peaked my interest in the first book prince joe. He has this way about him. He went through the means to do the right thing. He loved her he just couldn't find the words, instead he showed it by doing rather than speaking. I could tell he cared about Alan he truly wanted to do that kid right by teaching him how to train to go into the military, by teaching him how to learn respect.I wish he was the one who would have adopted Alan though. He could have used a male figure in his life permanent not just a female.
I'm worried about the next couple of books because there are been so far no females besides maybe Lisa I think her name was who married Blue. But other than that most of the women have been cold hearted and do not deserve these men.

Tall, Dark, and Fearless
Public Library 4/24/15.
Frisco's Kid
2.9 Stars. I wasn't sure what I was really expecting from Frisco's story but this wasn't it. The other books in the series have a pattern and this one doesn't fall into that. I really wanted him to get better physically but the story had more todo about accepting his limitations and learned to ask for help. Don't worry you still see his old SEAL team when the action happens and catch some bad guys.
Everyday, Average Jones
2.7-2.9 Stars. So this is how the story goes... Boy rescues girl from hostage situation they get friendly. Girl gets pregnant and doesn't tell boy. Boy shows up for a surprise visit and really gets a surprise. Boy wants marriage but girl doesn't want anything from him. When Mel first ends their relationship/fling she makes very good points. However she refuses to even try after she finds out she's pregnant and she wasn't even going to tell him. I understand not wanting to get married for the sake of the baby but not even wanting to try made her look selfish and unreasonable. I really liked the beginning of this story but as it went on I liked Mel less and less. Up until this point you haven't really gotten to know Jones/Cowboy so I didn't expect to like him as much as I did (Mel didn't deserve him). You also learn a bit more about Crash his swim buddy but he's in the next book.

I love Brockmann's Troubleshooters series, but these came first. This is a compilation of SEAL Team 10 numbers 3 and 4. These are really almost novellas, nowhere near as complex as her full novels, but they are heartwarming, sweet stories of Navy SEALs who fall in love with generally strong, interesting women....except for the heroine in Everday, Average Jones (I wish she had better titles!) Melody is rescued from a hostage situation in an unnamed Middle Eastern country by a SEAL team, including "Cowboy" Jones. They connect and a brief, but intense affair takes place. Jones has to leave for his duties, but doesn't forget her. He is honorable in all of his actions. Melody becomes pregnant, but does not tell Jones. He finds out suddenly when he comes to her hometown 7 months later to rekindle the affair. Her behavior in the wake of this is just too awful to believe. She treats Cowboy like a dog, literally!!!! Jones is in love with her, but she makes him sleep for weeks outside in a tent. I hated her! Jones can't walk away (and I'm glad he doesn't for their child) but it's so sad to see such degrading treatment. Melody does come around eventually, but it's just too late to make the story that enjoyable. Frisco's story redeems a star

Update 2021 - We finally get Thomas and Tasha's story...Yay!!!!
What a long wait...and here it is:
I think it's time for a series re-read....
Re-read 2017
Frisco's Kid is still one of my favorites in this series. Frisco's struggles are hard to swallow. The way he struggles with his injury and feels like less of a man because of it. Tasha is a cute kid and I liked how she and Frisco and Mia became a family.
(On a side note: I have to check her later books to see if Suzanne Brockmann ever wrote a story about Thomas King...)

Frisco's Kid and Everday, Average Jones... both fabulous.
Frisco's story is very tough. I like most that you get a glimpse of the pride, the heart and the soul of the man behind the Budweiser Badge. I love Mia's strength. She is perfect.
Cowboy's story is touching in a completely different way. It's fun and makes you life in admiration to the dedication Cowboy has. The same dedication he takes with him when he goes wheels.
Thanks to Brockmann for bringing to our attention the sacrifices made, the lives unknowingly lost and those forever changed.

Two great classics from Suzanne Brockmann.
"Frisco" thinks that a knee injury that ended his career as a SEAL ended his life as well. But an unexpected drop-off (his niece) and his gorgeous high school teacher neighbor are determined to show him differently.
Melody Evans spends a fantastic week with Harlan "Cowboy" Jones but can't envision spending her life with a SEAL, even if she is carrying his child. But Cowboy wants to do the right thing (different times) and maybe is even falling in love along the way.

Frisco's Kid- This was a pretty solid, standard romance. I liked that Frisco wasn't as superhero-like as the rest of the SEAL characters are. Slightly more realistic.
Everyday, Average Jones- The return of the sexy stalker hero! You know what? If you tell a man you don't want to marry him, and then he camps out on your lawn, you are within your rights to call the police. The shotgun-wedding theme was pretty annoying too. I checked the publication date- the book was written in 1998, not 1898.

Okay ... This was a hard call. Basically, it was a split. Frisco's Kid gets a 4+ star rating. However, Everyday, Average Jones was a little disappointing and gets a 3 star rating. Loved Cowboy, but the female protagonist was the equivalent of a cheese grater on my nerves. Yeah, she was the human version of the push-me-pull-you. The female just wore me down, so from my perspective, Cowboy should as least get a Navy and Marine Corp Metal awarded for outstanding non-combat heroic performance.

"An entertaining couple of books, nothing life changing but you see where Suzanne Brockman Started and how she became one of the best romance writers who centered stories around law enforcement officers. One of the interesting things in this story was the details about the injured soldier who may become an alcoholic after his injury...."
July 1, 2011
I love to discover new authors that are established, but I've not read. Suzanne Brockmann is one of them. She has a great way of ripping emotion from her characters and creating conflicts that wrap you up in her stories. Frisco and Cowboy are two such characters. I'm going to enjoy discovering her other novels.

Two interesting stories about Navy SEAL's. The first is about a SEAL who is not going to recover from his injuries and what is to become of his life; especially since he now has the responsibility of taking care of his sister's child while she is in rehab. The second is about a SEAL who is part of a rescue mission and fall in love with the woman he helps rescue.

This has been my favorite out of the series. You will melt over both men in both books! The stories could not be sweeter or more romantic. Yet, the hotness is off the charts! This book has it all! Gotta love those sexy SEALs!
