After a night of partying on his yacht, she awakens to discover she’s stumbled into a sting operation to lure the bad guys into the open.

FALL OUT by Zoe York:
Drew Castle is a Navy SEAL with a bad case of indifference. Until Annie Martin shows up on his doorstep, scared out of her mind, and all of a sudden, keeping her safe becomes the most important mission of his life. And this time, he’s on his own. Annie knows that letting Drew whisk her away under the guise of protection is a recipe for disaster, but he's the only person she can trust. Drew's strange mix of laid-back bossiness takes some getting used to, but as they escape to a Caribbean hideaway, she finds herself wondering what it would be like if they came together at a different time. As the threat is resolved, a new danger arises: one of passion, heat and desire so overwhelming neither can resist, no matter the cost.

Returning home after a disastrous extended deployment, Navy SEAL Brody Battles struggles with nightmares and government secrets building a wall between him and his wife, Devyn, especially when a security breach compromises his identity. While they’re adjusting to being a family again, an old enemy waits in the shadows, salivating for the sweet taste of revenge.

For Navy SEAL Mack Riley, rescuing a family in Colombia is not as hard as seeing the admiral’s daughter again. He’d sworn a vow to steer clear of that heartbreaker. But since the family was taken hostage on Jenna’s watch, she’s determined to join the rescue team. When the admiral orders him to protect Jenna, Mack is forced to keep her as close as body armor. In the heat of battle, love Mack and Jenna deny breaches their defenses. With missiles locked onto their coordinates…can they save the family and get out alive?

MY IMPRESSIONS OF THIS BOOK:

As a reader drawn to those sexy and supportive Navy Seals, this anthology gives us plenty to drool over.  From countries abroad to closer to home these story are action-packed while balancing a believable romance.  My favorite of the bunch is Seal's Embrace and involves a charming warrior trying to win over the nurse, who not only outranks him but has been hurt in the past.  When he's hurt in combat she finds herself inexplicably drawn to him even more against her will and needing him to save her when zealots take her hostage.  The characters are all strong-willed and larger than life in this story, as well as in the others.  The battle scenes are vividly depicted and keep you immersed in the heart-pounding action too.  From start to finish this is an engaging selection of stories that are surprisingly fully fleshed-out.  Fans of sexy warriors will be drawn to this anthology as well and I commend each author for their inclusion in this very worthwhile endeavor!

My rating for this is a B.

*I received this book from the authors in exchange for my honest opinion.
