My Review:
This is a perfect evening story. I stayed up late for it, but didn't feel too guilty since it only took an extra hour. When you think military story, you think alpha tough guy male and the woman he's after. But this was so much better than that. Sam is military, but he's supposed to be hiding it from Sheri, on orders from her brother. He's doing a favor by being the manny for Sheri's twin 7-month-old sons.


There are a bunch of secrets here, including that Sam's had a crush on Sheri for years (after only one meeting). And I mean, it's a tongue tied, stumble around, sort of crush. It was so cute. Yeah, Sam was a tough guy and took his job seriously, but he messed up all the time and fumbled around trying to get his bearings. We could call him a nervous MacGyver who knows how to order take out when necessary.


Sheri was a good, solid character. She's confident and self-sufficient, but also vulnerable and stubborn. She doesn't always see the best in herself, but she makes no apologies for who she is. She's tough when she needs to be and I liked how confident she was in her own sexuality. I found her very attractive for that reason alone.


I can't wait for the next book in the series. This story gave me lots of happy feelings and was worth staying up for.
