Very romantic book all the way around. Just what I was looking for after some lighthearted stuff. The emotion continued throughout the book even after the hero figures out that the heroine is still alive. These two fell in love early and never fell out even when separated for years.His love for her was just all consuming. She was still in danger and he was committed to keeping her safe.

The action scenes were very well done. Sometimes, authors make their heroes SEALs and then waste that aspect of their character. Here he is an ex SEAL and uses his skills to save her in a very real way.

Also the reason for the bad guys chasing this family for years is well set up. I also enjoyed the FBI agents who were working on solving their case from a different angle unknowing where the trail was leading.

Most of the story is told from the hero's POV which I particularly enjoy. Characterizations were very well done. Writing flowed well. Plot moved right along and made sense.

Loved it. ( )

Typical early Sharon Sala fare. ( )
