SUMMARY:

He's got a living, breathing dilemma...

In the midst of running an undercover CIA mission, Navy SEAL Lt. Garth Vale finds an abandoned baby, and his superiors sure don't want to know about it. The only person who can help him is the beautiful new doctor in town, but she's got another surprise for him...

She's got a solution...at a price...

Dr. Bronwyn Whitescarver has left the frantic pace of big city ER medicine for a small town medical practice. Her bags aren't even unpacked yet when gorgeous, intense Garth Vale shows up on her doorstep in the middle of the night with a sick baby...

But his story somehow doesn't add up, and Bronwyn isn't quite sure who she's saving-the baby, or the man...

MY THOUGHTS:

After reading previous books by this author, I was a little excited to jump into her story telling of romance.  While the book was nice, it wasn't a great  read for me. 


While the characters were detailed nicely and the author tried to make us love them, they each fell a little flat for me.  It seems the series started out great, but by the time you get to this book it is too predictable and boring.  I honestly had to force myself to finish the book just so I could read the ending that I knew was coming. The story was slowly paced and even when the plot seemed to pick up, the pace always returned to a lull. 


Overall, if you have read the series then you might has well read this one if you are someone who likes to see a series through.  Otherwise, if you haven't read any of them yet, go ahead and give it a pass for now. 


MY RATING:


 
  If the library doesn't have it, don't worry about reading it! 2 STARS

I almost got this one from Amazon's Sunshine deal yesterday but the reviews on Goodreads turned me away. Thanks for your review.

I have enjoyed the first three books in the series, but when pages are missing it is frustrating. I love reading on my kindle but I thought I would be skipping missing pages. Please fix this problem. I would have enjoyed the book more with all the pages.
