This book had A LOT going on in it. Probably a bit too much. And it had a lot of elements that I like in it, but for some reason it didn't quite work for me. It was a good romantic suspense. Lots of action. Lots of romance. But for some reason, I couldn't really like the couple too much. Maybe because they had too many doubts themselves and they took the concept of on again/off again to the extreme. It was just a lot.

But, the story as a whole is pretty interesting. So I'll see how the next book works. This book may have been the one to set up the rest of the series. It was the one to introduce the brothers, explain who and what they were, and gave us a little hint as to what to expect down the line. And maybe I'll like the other brothers stories more than Josie and Shane. I mean, I like them now after all's been said and done. But it was such a tumultuous story that it's going to take me awhile to trust these two will stick. ( )

I am very disappointed. The first few pages started off with a bang. Then slammed into an abrupt stop. Virtually every page was had repetitive info and taken up with boring filler info. In fact, even the boring filler was repetitive. ( )

I had read the third book in this series several years ago and gave it a low rating. I think that it probably suffered from needing to be read in order. I really enjoyed this one, particularly the hero. He was just well written as an amnesiac who nevertheless somehow remembered the important stuff. Basically that he loved the heroine and he would do anything to protect her. Since he also didn't forget how to be alpha, that was a fun story. She was in danger and he was in danger and there was lots of action. The story with the brothers made a lot more sense starting at the beginning. The heroine was well done as a small woman who looks fragile but who was really fairly tough. Just an all around fun read. ( )

I enjoyed this book. I have had a copy of this book for a long time but for one reason or another I never picked it up. I have been such a mood reader lately and when I saw this book while browsing the audiobooks on my library's website, this felt like the perfect time to get started with this series. I found this to be a very easy story to slip into and I found myself hooked right away. I am so glad that I finally decided to give this book a try.

The book opens with Josie arriving at the hospital, after being called about her husband, Shane. This is a husband that she hasn't seen for two years and a husband that has lost his memory and doesn't know what is going on. I couldn't wait to find out what caused Shane to leave her two years ago and what was really going on now that put him in the situation to lose his memory.

I liked Shane and Josie a lot and I really wanted to see them work things out and stay together this time around. Shane had lost his memories but the chemistry between the pair was still present from the very start. He also kept his instincts and seemed to surprise himself with some of the things that he knew and was able to do. Josie still had feelings for Shane but she was guarded and tried to remain practical. She wasn't helpless and didn't hesitate to stand up for herself.

The story was pretty exciting. There was a lot of action and quite a few scenes where the characters were in some danger. I did enjoy learning more about Shane and his brothers and watching them work together to get things done. Josie, Shane, Matt, and Nate all really stepped up when they needed to and I even enjoyed the role that the local detective played in the story. I thought that the story's romance and action were really well balanced.

Karen White did a fabulous job with the narration of this story. I believe that this was my first experience with this narrator but I will definitely be looking for more of her work in the future. I thought that she did a great job with all of the character voices and she added a lot of excitement and emotion into her reading. I believe that her narration added to my overall enjoyment of this story.

I would recommend this book to fans of romantic suspense. I really enjoyed the story from beginning to end and thought that the characters were very well done. I cannot wait to read more of this exciting series very soon. ( )

Wow. I didn't expect to like this book as much as I did. I don't usually go in for soldiers or paranormal. Although, to be fair, I wouldn't exactly classify this as paranormal. More like paranormal-light, maybe? Or, maybe lab lit (books with just-slightly-out-of-reach science in them). Well, whatever you want to call it, it was excellent! I can't wait to pick up book #2 and see what happens to the other brothers. ( )
