My Review:
This story opens with a bang. Literally.
Dalton is on leave from his duties as a SEAL, and while hiking int he woods he hears a gun shot. But it isn't aimed at him. It's aimed at a woman on horseback.
This situation throws Dalton and Aurora together. He's convinced that the shots were no accident and is determined to protect her.
What I liked...
Dalton's backstory was flushed out well by the author. He was leery about getting into a relationship and once the reasoning is revealed, it makes sense as to why he's cautious.
Aurora is sort of a 'horse whisperer'. Her specialty is taking in abused horses and rehabilitating them. She has a calming way about her, which Dalton needs.
I also enjoyed getting to know her grandfather. He was a character in and of himself.
What I didn't like...
Aurora made a really stupid decision in the story. I get why she did it, so it wasn't completely out of character, but it was stupid nonetheless.
Would I recommend this book?
Yes! If you like contemporary romance, especially military romance, you should enjoy this story.
