(I skipped over the sex scenes while I'm confessing also. I wanted romance, dammit!) Took back one star but the story was good.

Set in South Africa, bartender/amnesiac Lucky is recognized by a past SEAL teammate and his quiet existence is in shambles. (He was a POW.) I liked the emotions portrayed by the characters: they felt truly genuine and believable. And the villian was a surprise! Mostly because I didn't expect one as I thought this plot point would go on for a couple books. Glad I was wrong!

Another winner for Ms. August! These two men are wonderful together. Though not actually working together anymore they're right down the hall. We learAnother winner for Ms. August! These two men are wonderful together. Though not actually working together anymore they're right down the hall. We learn more about the team (specifically that Merisi is damn intelligent) and their interactions. Both cases were interesting, too. [Can be read as a standalone but the previous books are great too.]...more

I loved that these two mc's were big men, one a cop the other a firefighter. They both have strong solid frames THAT MAKE NOISE ("Whoom!") when they slam into each other to get their freak on. (Had a mini-orgasm just typing that.) This is a true favourite of mine!...more

Forget/don't think much about how "non-straights" met back in the day. This was an excellent story just from that perspective alone. And pursuit of another? Thought that's hard enough without other party getting the wrong idea and possible jail time. Sheesh!...more

As I read I felt more empathy for him and realized I WAS him: I too fell hard for Peter Kenyon and didn't want to hurt him. I'd like to believe my communication skills are somewhat better however. Great adventure-telling! Bravo!...more
