Lets start of by saying this is a new author for us a we throughly enjoyed our first read by them.We enjoyed it so much that after finishing this story and that of Avenged we purchased two more books in the MacKenzie series.We are looking forward to reading more about those MacKenzie men.

I love it when a story starts off with hooking you from the very first pages.I think what did it was that those characters that did it.I loved them all especially the girls with their sense of humor and especially Candace's grand-mother she was just a hoot.

This novella had tons of drama going on from the very beginning.If it was not personal drama,wedding drama,grand-mother drama it was something else.I loved getting caught up in it all.It's been awhile since I read a romantic suspense book and this was the perfect read to ease me back into them.Candace and Ryan were easy to relate to.You were able to feel the emotions of this couple and you could sympathize with them and the troubles they were experiencing.You could see that this couple (Ryan and Candace)really loved one another so your heart broke for the turmoil and unhappiness that was causing the gap in their marriage.They were such a sweet couple.I can only imagine what its like being married to a military man constantly worrying if their safe or not and not to mention the loneliness for the both of them they must be experiencing.

The story was surrounded around a couple of friends getting married Erin and Wade in attendance of all their mutual friends but then the story took on a new life of its own with its other character's taking the focus off them.I have never read a story like that before it was quite different and I liked it.But,when all the men decide to hunt and camp  for an evening things took a major twist when the men  stumble upon something not right putting them all on high alert.

I am not sure what it was or how it happened but I was drawn to Candace's and Ryan's more than any other character's.It was just something about this couple  perhaps their chemistry or connection to one another maybe their love story of falling in love in a war zone.I just love it when a couple find love in the worst possible times it just makes their story more endearing.I was really attracted to Ryan their was something that drew me to him instantly perhaps it was his sweetness, alluring voice or those bedroom eyes but , that man got me all hot and bothered.
(laughing out loud)

I always pick a favorite character in a story even though Candace and Ryan were my favorite couple Ruby caught my eye as well.Ruby Candace's grand-mother turned out to be a character that made me laugh with all her antic's and smart mouth and witty personality. She was a hoot to read about.I loved that she didn't give a crap what others thought of her.I loved how she new how to have fun.I also loved that their was more to Ruby then anyone ever new.That was really a nice surprise when her secrets start coming to life and giving us one of those OMG moments where your mouth is hanging open.Your saying out loud really Ruby ? and than laughing..I loved that moment.Way to go Ruby !

This was an intriguing story that had its ups its downs.I loved that all the character's had so much in common  being military and government men and women with amazing personalities.I also enjoyed the other men and wives who added humor and loved their camaraderie with one another.This just added to the story that gave us more than a few chuckles .This just made the story me enjoyable for me.The plot and the character's drew me right in from the very beginning making it a page turner for me that I read cover to cover in one sitting.I love when your are able to connect with the character's that you read about and as you can see I was able to do just that. This makes for more of a interesting read when you love the character's your reading about.An amazing plot with character's that were love- able funny,smart,protective and possessive and down wright intriguing.My kind of read...

I love a story when the author has done and amazing job that has you thinking about the character's even after the story had been done and over. Though out  the day more than once something came to mind of what I had read and had me smiling..

(grin) 

5 stars from us!

Lets start of by saying this is a new author for us a we throughly enjoyed our first read by them.We enjoyed it so much that after finishing this story and that of Never Surrender we purchased two more books in the MacKenzie series.We are looking forward to reading more about those MacKenzie men.

I love this stories plot and it character's .I found them to be engaging, funny, playful,serious,heat-broken,dangerous,regretful,lost,protective,love able,sexy,sweet,caring making them  so intriguing to read about.

I love when two lost soul's find each other and share a connection with one another and have amazing chemistry together.A chance meeting where a couple happens to come into each other life when I just so happens when both are at their lowest points.I love when people who have made bad choices in life are able to find someone they can relate to making it possible where they can finally bare their souls to one another and who would  be able to understand  what they are going through. To sympathize with their past life choices..What I loved about both Echo and Ben is that they owned up to their past's without making excuses and just moved forward to try and make themselves better for themselves and others around them.When shredding their secrets there was no judgement  just sympathy and understanding.Each of them just owned who they were and I really liked that about them.

I always have a favorite character in a story that I pick and mine is going to be Ben.Echo was a favorite to but Ben tipped the scales for me because I loved how he found himself doing things so out of character for him.I saw the most change in his character then any other.Ben could be grumpy,serious,dangerous,deadly,selfish self absorbed and had a huge ego but we saw a totally different side to him when it came to his interactions with Echo.He just amazed me and  had me smiling at every turn.How could this deadly predator treat a women with affection , be gentle and kind and handle her with care and be possessive of someone he just met  and yet be a stone cold killer on the other hand.Ben was instantly attracted to Echo and fought it at every turn knowing he was no good for her knowing that there was not going to be any kind of future for them.What I did love is that he regretted his past for once in his life just wishing he had been a better man and worthy of Echo.I really liked how he teased Echo and called her pet names especially when he gave her the name pop tart.Why that name ? Because he love them. Sigh..I was totally drawn to him with his dangerous aura that sexy grin and that sweet protective side of him making him irresistible .I guess you can say that I fell for him just like Echo did.We always love that certain sweet  knowing it's bad for us yet loving it anyways.We just can't help ourselves its just our one and only sinful indulgence! (laughing out loud)

I have to say that I loved everything about Echo as well.I found her to be sweet ,kind ,love able,sexy,lonely.I felt Echo's pain and suffering at the loss her sister and her guilt at not being able to save her.She took her sisters death to heart and should not have.That guilt only made her resentful , angry and wanting nothing more than to seek revenge for the person she felt  contributed to her sisters death.I loved how Ben helped Echo deal with all of that and put things in perspective so she would be able to heal.I love the chemistry this couple had along with their amazing hot and sexy interludes.One of the things that surprised me the most about Echo is that she never felt afraid of Ben even when she was in no condition to defend herself.They simple bonded and a trust had be formed right from the onset.

I believe that fate put this couple in each other path.The funny thing about fate is that it is not always kind.Even though there may not be a happy after for this couple their being together brought healing to those two lost lonely souls and put them on the a path to find the happiness they were both seeking out of life.I loved this story from beginning to end with all its twist and turns ,it's up and downs ,it's amazing character's that were interesting and you were able to relate to. I was drawn to them from the very first pages.I found myself smiling more than once and chuckling every now and then making it just another fun and fantastic read for us.

I will be looking forward to this author's other works as well. A recommend read to all !

5 stars read from us!
