**NOTE: I was VERY impressed with this 1st time (well, for me) author!!! It's obvious she thought her story through & didn't leave any "gaps" or inconsistencies. This story just didn't have creativity & suspense going for it, it also had a sense of intelligence. Can I just say... I SO APPRECIATED that!

=======================================
COMMENTS/NOTES: This book was a surprise like for me. Book's kudos:

1. The heroine!

2. The heroine! - FINALLY! A heroine I could appreciate. The h is just as 'rough' around the edges as the H is. She definitely isn't a pushover, & she gives as good as she gets. She's not some clinging gal. She wants her space just as much as the H. I enjoyed reading a h like this for a change. She wonderfully "tough" & yet feminine at the same time. Something I find most authors have a hard time balancing. 

3. The H & h were on 'equal footing'. Because of how wonderfully this author portrayed this h, the H&h both were equally intimated of one another; thus, "justifiably" equally impressed with one another. Us readers weren't expected to accept this couple just because the big, bad alpha H & his magical peen grunts "MINE" to the h. 

4. The story's flow & intelligence. This author did a well thought out story. To me, it was a combination of a biker book from the H's aspect, & a good military suspense from the h's aspect.

5. No "game" playing between the H&h. Luv'd how honest they were with one another. It saved this reader a lot of frustrations.

Nicely done SF!
