Takes off from the start!

Oh my oh my this book takes off with a bang! In yet another amazing book from two seasoned authors we her a best friends sister sorta forbidden romance. What a rollercoaster ride.

The writing is flawless, and the words are so captivating, the plot had so many twists and turns and none that I was expecting, and many shocking moments. I really enjoyed this book and it kept me engrossed throughout. I really loved the characters and the way they interacted with each other. This is a fun, hot, romantic must read book and I would definitely recommend this book to anyone.

Authors Blurb: Former Navy SEAL and true crime author Simon Stone needs a break, not a girlfriend. After initial success with his first book, his reputation was smeared by a backstabbing ex and now he’s looking to redeem himself. Alisha Lewis, the sister of one of his former squad mates could be his ticket to his next bestseller. She’s sexy, smart and just happens to be an investigative reporter working on what might be the perfect story for his next book. A smuggling operation in a local auction house is intriguing, but so is Alisha. After the adrenaline rush of a stakeout gone bad, they share a night of passion, one they both agree was a mistake especially after a cop buddy tells Simon that the story is all a fabrication by Alisha. But that one night of passion has lasting consequences when Alisha learns she’s pregnant.
Alisha’s life has certainly been better. She’d been on the cusp of exposing a major smuggling operation and now she’s pregnant and thanks to Simon confronting her in the middle of the newspaper office she’s been pulled off investigative stories. She’s got more than a bit of a grudge, so while she feels obligated to tell Simon about their little surprise, Alisha makes it clear that she doesn’t need his help. She didn’t expect him to insist on coming along to keep her and the baby safe. And she definitely didn’t expect to need his protection when they stumble on an abduction in progress. Soon, they’re up to their necks in crooked cops, kidnappers, and the kidnap victim’s abandoned baby. Not to mention the red-hot passion that continues to flare between them. It’s enough to give a girl fits. Worse yet? As they work to solve the mystery, Alisha realizes she’s starting to fall hard for the sexy SEAL. But will they be able to survive long enough to fall in love?

This book has everything I love in a book. Then you add that it's beautifully written and believable. It is easily a five star read. Written in dual POV my personal favorite this story flows so incredibly well that the next thing you know your 80% into the book and loving every second of it. The believable way the characters interact is perfect. Run, Hop, Jump or use your (1 click) finger to do whatever you have to do and get this amazing book. It'll break your heart, you'll want to scream with frustration and it'll let you discover that love just might conquer all. The chemistry is steamy and sweet and oh so romantic.

Thanks Netgally for letting me read and review.📚💕

As usual this author brings you to the book. Describing scenes at times made me feel like I was part of the book. I loved how Simon admitted to writing a romance book but could not use it in real life. Highly recommend this book.

When 1 crime journalist and 1 ex navy seal- book writer run into each other, what do the have in common? The need to find that 1 perfect story to establish them in their chosen profession. But when an unexpected complication comes about, can Simon keep Alisha alive long enough to make both their dreams come true?

I received a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley. The opinions expressed in this review are completely my own

There is just something about a former Navy SEAL that gets to my heart. (Could be because I’m a daughter and sister of former military members of the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines.) Military men are protective, strong, and single-minded when it comes to getting something accomplished.
In the case of this story we have a former-Navy-SEAL-turned-author who becomes involved with a female investigative reporter of crimes. The story she’s following involves what she believes to be is a forgery of antiques. Unfortunately it involves a whole lot more. With the addition of a baby (whose father has been kidnapped), our Heroine discovering she’s pregnant (by said former SEAL), and the addition of the “whole lot more”, our Hero has to figure out how to protect, and save, everyone. This story was romantic, tense, sweet, heart-pounding, and sigh inducing.
