Just a brief little overview and then I’ll get into my review of the first book.
Scott Maclaren is a Scottish Special Forces soldier who has
had to overcome so many tragedies in his life.
His wife divorces him for another man while he was still in the hospital
recovering from injuries(including a broken back).
He then travels overseas to visit his grandparents and that’s
how his story begins. Luckily with three years of physical therapy, Scott was finally back to living a somewhat normal life, however a lonely life. He takes to the internet and finds Katie Johnson, a school teacher who he falls hard and fast for. Scott’s devotion and love for Katie will take him across the world once again to the Middle East. He takes a bodyguard position to secure the life of Britney Parnell. Britney is of course a very young, pretty, businesswoman. Of course, this causes problems between Scott and Katie.
The story follows Scott and Britney’s time in Baghdad as
well as his devotion to his girlfriend Katie.
The book is jammed packed with lots of action, adventure, and satisfying love scenes.

Please check him out. He’s really a nice guy who likes to interact
with his fans. I'll be hosting him on my blog in March. I'll also be back before then with my review of the second book.
I liked book one but had a little trouble getting into it. But glad I read it by the time I got to book two :)
ReplyDeleteI had a hard time with it too, but I'm glad I stuck with it. :)
DeleteGreat review! I loved the book too and I agree I wanted to shake Katie a couple of times also. Since I never read a m/f romance written by a guy before I didn't know what to expect. A mans view of romance and sex is different then a women's view. And it was refreshing, written like real life and not 12 pages of fantasized foreplay. And he made me cry...I love it when a book makes me cry.
ReplyDeleteYeah the whole guy writing romance thing really threw me for a loop too. I was really surprised by it. :)
DeleteI really liked this book, but the second one is my favorite.
