A second chance romance with a Seal and the woman he left behind. A great story reminding life needs to be cherished and a series that is a great read.

ARC provided by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
I think this will be the last Katie Knight title I will be requesting and reading.

I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. I love a spicy romance, especially with a military man.

This was a pretty middle-of-the-road romantic suspense book for me. The premise was interesting, especially given the POV of the bad guy (YIKES) and the fact there is a child involved, and while I don't usually gravitate towards second-chance romances, this one had some redeeming qualities! A few things got repetitive and it was heavy on internal monologues. Logan really made this story for me, I have a feeling my rating would have been much lower without him!

I loved this book. It was full of suspense and emotions from lovable characters. I definitely can’t wait for the next book!

Brilliant fast paced adventure with all the top ingredients! Second chances, adventure, thrillingness, excellent characters, narrative to die for and depth of written word that had me racing along not wanting the ride to end.

Ben and Meghan have great chemistry, they meet in the least expectant way and when the worst happens it is on! The authors have scripted one of the best stories I've read in a quite some time; the kind where you don't want to move onto your next story quite yet.

If there's one book you need to read, make it this one!

This is a great second chance romance with a lot of drama and intrigue. Even after eight years apart, there was still a lot of chemistry and emotion, and I will definitely be reading this author again.

Her SEAL Rescuer is only the second time I've read a book by Katie Knight and Leslie North, and while I wasn't over the moon about the first book of hers I read, this second chance novel of romantic suspense was far and away and huge improvement over the previous one, and it gets 4.5 stars from this reader.

Ben Steele and Megan Foster fell in love when they were both students at UCLA Berkeley, possibly drawn together at first because they were native Alaskans, but when Megan was ready to take their relationship to the next level--suggesting that they move into an apartment together, Ben, who'd been abandoned by his birth mother, and shuffled from dreadful foster home to dreadful foster home, got cold feet, and immediately enlisted, eventually becoming a Navy SEAL, and building his own "family" among his SEAL brothers.

Megan, brokenhearted at losing the love of her life with no explanation, entered marketing, but found it wasn't fulfilling, and she ended up becoming a live-in nanny to a couple of famous and wealthy physicians, falling in love with her charge, their adorable little boy, Logan. She accidentally loses sight of Logan while waiting to board a plane at the airport in Anchorage, to reunite him with his parents in Fairbanks--he'd been too ill to travel with them when they left. When she does find Logan, she shocked to see that the man he's being consoled by is a someone she once knew and loved, Ben Steele, the man who broke her heart 8 years earlier, and left her without a backward glance, although she's never gotten over him, nor he her, but although he's never explained his reasons for leaving her, the situation is awkward at best.

When it's time to board the small plane, Meg, Ben and Logan find themselves the only passengers, but after chatting briefly, without ever really addressing the elephant on the plane, except for Ben apologizing for the way he left Megan 8 years earlier, what sounds like an engine problem is actually a bomb and the plane crashes to the ground in the middle of nowhere Alaska, leaving the pilot and his lone crew member dead. Miraculously, Ben, Megan and Logan survive the crash with little more than bruises, but when Ben inspects the wreckage of crashed plane and finds shrapnel, he know for certain that it was a bomb that exploded, and discovers that there's still another larger bomb aboard the plane. He and Meg quickly grab what might be useful to them and Logan, blankets, warm clothing, food and water, as they flee the crash site, fearing another explosion, and they begin their search to find shelter in the frigid Alaskan wilderness--having no idea why anyone would want to blow up the small plane, and hoping that the GPS beacon on the plane is undamaged and that rescue in on the way there.

Ben and Megan both try to keep young Logan from knowing just how dire their situation is, not knowing if or when help will arrive, or who is after them. They eventually learn that that the target of the explosion was little Logan, and the bomber/antagonist is the father of a little boy whose son was severely injured, and that Logan's parents, wealthy and highly regarded surgeons, are the ones he blames for his son's death, also poisoning the mind of his teenage son with his hatred, bitterness and need to avenge the death of his son, by killing the son of the surgeons who were unable to save his own son, and wanting to make them suffer the way he had suffered.

What follows is one intense novel of romantic suspense, one that kept me reading non-stop until I finished reading this novel at 4:00 a.m., and my only issue with this novel is that Ben's inner dialogue about his lack of trust in long-term relationships and in love itself, and his feeling that he's unworthy of being loved because it was drilled into his head by his last set of horrible foster parents, becomes increasingly redundant and was way overdone. Otherwise, this novel was one exciting, well-paced, well-plotted, well-written and heartfelt read with fully developed characters, and I'm happy to recommend it.

I voluntarily read an advance reader copy of this novel. The opinions expressed are my own.

A second chance romance, my favorite genre, because everyone deserves a second chance at happiness. This is the first book that I have read from this author.

Benjamin Steele and Megan Foster had a lot in common when they met at the University of California, aside from both being Alaskans. Ben had been taken from his birth mother by child protective services, when he was only 2, but instead of given to a loving family, he was placed from one foster family after another, who only cared about the money they were paid and told him so. Megan's father had walked away from his family when she was 7, and never looked back, but she still had her mother and siblings and had a nurturing personality. So when Megan had talked about moving in together, he panicked, didn't think that he was good enough for her and that she would eventually leave him, so he left first for the SEAL program.

He thought about her often and she was never able to get over him, so eight years later when they meet at the Anchorage airport, it is awkward. He has been with the SEALs and she had burned out of working in marketing and was now a nanny for Logan, a cute little boy, child of two doctors. They end up as the only passengers on the small plane, which crashes mid flight. But it wasn't an accident; an evil man wants revenge on Logan's parents, and doesn't care who else dies in the process. The three of them are the only survivors and it will take all his SEALs skills to get Logan and Megan back to safety. Will they take their second chance, or will pride and fear keep them from voicing their love for each other?

Exciting action packed story, with suspense, romance, easy banter and a cute toddler. I read an ARC from NetGalley.com and this is my unbiased and voluntary review.

This was a completely enjoyable story with strong characters and a quick paced narrative. The revenge plot was a little over the top, but not so much that it had a negative impact on the overall story. As far as the romance between the characters, it's pretty much what you would expect - which is fine in my opinion because I'm not reading romance for the surprise endings, I know the characters are going to get together and just enjoy watching that relationship come together and grow.

Well written.
More than a simple romance, a second chance at love... with the one you want. Interesting and captivating. Strong characters.

Beautiful cover, I mean gorgeous!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC of this book. This is my honest review. All opinions are my own.

This was an interesting book. It was well written and kept my attention all the way through the book. Lots of mystery and drama.

I loved this book. It was so cool to read about a SEAL and the woman he loves to get a second chance.

Meg and Ben are such a strong couple. They make it throw a plane crash with a little boy called Logan! What caused the plane crash? Can the three of them make it back to civilization?

I read this book as an arc from NetGalley

The story had all the elements needed in a good romance novel …, romance, humor to tie it all together. I enjoyed this author's style of writing …there was a nice flow to her words. I would definitely look for more of her work in the future.

A lovely and enjoyable romantic read, I love a Leslie North romance and these are so much fun when she teams up with another author too. The usual great romance we know and love but a fresh feeling voice, great fun and a great ride.

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for a free copy for an honest opinion

Her Seal Rescuer is my first novel by Katie Knight but will certainly not be my last. In fact, I liked it so much that right after finishing it I scooted over to Amazon and bought a bunch more of hers. Not only was the story well written, it was fast paced with a great flow and characters that were like able and believable in their roles. The characters, Ben, Meg and little Logan were well fleshed out and their backgrounds were clear enough that you knew who they were before getting to the nitty gritty of the plot. The plot was well done and extremely believable and easy to follow...none of those 'wait, what?' moments where you feel like you missed something. Each part of the story flowed seamlessly into the next. Those are things I look for when reading a new to me author. I like to get lost in a book when reading and Her Seal Rescuer did that from the very first page and didn't let go until the very end. Even though I sat down intending to read only a few chapters before bed I ended up reading straight through to the fabulous epilogue which had me closing the book with a sigh and a smile. It was THAT good! I would recommend this book to anyone who likes a good well written story with plenty of action and characters that you'd like to know in real life.

This book was everything I wanted and more...romance, suspense, action, and humor.
Ben and Megan had been in love during college, and upon graduation Meg thought they would move onto the next phase of their lives together. Ben was scared of the intense feelings he had for Meg, and instead of sticking around left her and joined the SEALS.
Years later they had a chance encounter on a flight to Alaska where Megan, working as a nanny, was escorting a little boy to see his parents. When the plane crashes, and Ben realizes it was no accident, it will be a race against time to save the three of them from the men who wanted them dead. But, when things are all settled will he leave Megan once again?
I received an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Her SEAL Rescuer started out with the same intensity and anticipation as previous Katie Knight stories, unfortunately for this reader, this was also the story I liked the least, and the first time I found myself skipping bits to get it done. While the plot exciting, and the characters were likeable (especially the adorable toddler Logan), this story was at least 30% too long due to the repetitive inner dialogue by both Megan and Ben. A subject can only be rehashed so many times before it becomes annoying. Luckily, the ending was good and salvaged what was just an OK story.

Her SEAL Rescuer, is a second chance romance introducing us to previous high school sweethearts Ben & Meg. A good short read, well written and executed with great characters and a storyline that kept me engaged throughout.
