Description

Fiction. Romance. Suspense. HTML: When U.S. Navy SEAL chief Wes Skelly was sent to L.A. on assignment, he agreed to go on a blind date with beautiful single mother Brittany Evans, sister-in-law of a fellow SEAL. After all, he had been secretly in love for years, albeit with a woman who belonged to another man. So what did he have to lose? Plenty, it turned out. Because suddenly the woman he'd thought he could never have was available. However, so was Brittany--and not only that, she was in danger. Because of him. He knew he could keep her safe. But why was he increasingly certain that he was the one in danger?

I really liked this book. It was only my second book to read in the series and I thought it worked fine as a "stand alone" story. I had read Taylor's Temptation about Wes' sister and I didn't think Wes was an appealing character, but I changed my mind with this book. It was a quick interesting read.

knows him inside out, who's hung out with him when he's gotten drunk, who's been portrayed as very perceptive about motivations. Not to mention his psychologist not-girlfriend. And he finally figures out why he feels so bad about his brother's death _now_? Isn't that just a trifle convenient? Dunno. The romance is pretty good, though the external threats are - not particularly believeable; the characterization is as good as usual - but somehow this one never quite triggers suspension of disbelief for me. Good, but not as good as the rest.
