3 ½ stars. Very enjoyable beginning and end. The middle part about Rachels healing and problems with Ethan was a little slow.STORY BRIEF:Ethan and Rachel were married. Rachel went to South America with a group of relief workers. On her way back, the plane went down and her wedding ring was returned to Ethan. Hes been mourning her death for a year. All of a sudden an anonymous package arrives showing pictures of her as a prisoner in the jungle of Columbia. Ethan and his brothers (all formerI knew Maya Banks could write historicals. I love her historicals. Well, let me tell you, the woman can write romantic-suspense too. And she throws some angst in there and well, I'm a goner and in love :)For me, this had the right mix of suspense, action, angst and romance. I admired Rachel and her will to fight. If I were in her place I would have probably given up and just let the bad guys kill me. Ethan was a wonderful, protective, tortured hero who had so much guilt that I don't know how the
4 to 4 ½ Captivating Stars I really enjoyed this book. Why on earth it took me so long to start this series is beyond me.
Opening Line: " He'd hoped if he drank enough the night before he'd sleep right through today."Ex-Navy SEAL Ethan Kelly is hangover again, it's been a year since his wife Rachael was killed in a plane crash in South America and he can't seem to move on, the pain as fresh as the day she died. Ethan has cut himself off from his large family and refuses to have anything to do with his brother's top secret business, that of KGI (Kelly Group International) With their expensive military backgrounds
I loved this book. The writing was solid. The plot was solid. Ex SEAL Ethan's wife, Rachel, died in a plane crash a year ago but he gets some info that she is not dead but being held by a drug cartel in South America. He and his brothers, who have a spec ops type agency, go to get her back. She doesn't remember that their marriage had been troubled and Ethan doesn't want her to remember because the trouble was all his fault and he wants a second chance to do better.There wasn't a lot of suspense
3.7 starsY'all, the first 50% of this book was insanely good (It looks like the vast majority of you have read this already since I'm Way Late Lana to the party but remember how good it was?!) and I didn't even want to pull myself away to notch an update on here. I loved how this was romantic suspense but flipped a bit with the woman, in this case our former military dude's wife, being the one taken captive and held for a year; she was the one dealing with the trauma of that situation. I also
Story Rating 4 StarsCharacter Rating 4 StarsRomance Rating 5 StarsAction Level 4.5 StarsHeat Level 3 StarsOverall Rating 4 StarsThis book took off right from the beginning and kept me interested all the way through. It was exciting and had me tearing up in quite a few spots too. I absolutely loved how this story involved the whole family. They were just so caring for each other. I can't forget to mention all the hunky brothers and friends. The few love scenes were done well with some good heat
