SEALs Honor: A Military Romance (Take No Prisoners Book 1)

Premise was a bit trite, and Im not sure after all the other commitments in their lives, they would have made this one.

Enjoyed this novel very much, especially with twists and turns in the problems that arise in a three-way romance. Ms. James pens a good plot that keeps me interested. I always love a good military romance, too!

‘Seal’s Honor’ Take No Prisoners Series – A Military Romance By: Elle James RT Book Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥ RT Cover Rating: ♦♦♦♦♦ Reed Tucker (Tuck) to his buddies, raised on a Texas ranch, a U.S. Navy Seal, the best of the Navy’s best, the most highly skilled, highly trained elite group in the Navy. Hard bodied and good looking, of course are there any ugly SEALs? I don’t think so. He was taught to respect women, take care of them, keep them from harm, but never get too close. Tuck, part of Strike Force Dragon, a six man team assigned to the Middle East hunting and taking out Taliban insurgents, a hard, dangerous and deadly job but one he loved. But he does have one hang up, he harbors a deep fear of commitment with women. His parents, divorcing and remarrying several times has left a bad taste in his mouth and he just does not believe in love. He doesn’t think love is real and thus has not let himself get close to any woman, and there have been plenty in his young life. Not until Delany walks into his life. Delany O’Connell, a highly trained and skilled Army Black Hawk pilot, the first female to be assigned duty as a pilot on co-op missions in the war. Part of the 160th Aviation Regiment “Night Stalkers”, she could fly her bird into the worst of the worst of situations, bound and determined to do everything right, no mistakes that could cost human lives. Lives of her flight crew and the elite Navy Seals that she transports. Delany has always had one rule, not to get involved with damned SEALs with their massive biceps and quads; she was not into long term relationships with men who may not come home. She knows the risks and has been there and done that and wasn’t going to repeat it. A good looking woman, blond hair, a little slip of a gal, but built like a rock and could take care of herself in most situations due to her intense military training. Delany and Tuck end up in up on a training mission in Little Creek, Virginia, home to the Navy SEALs where they become friends being in such close contact with their training and soon their friendship escalates into a sexual relationship. Not a big problem with either of them as they both have agreed to not become overly involved, never to let their hearts enter into the equation. But as fate has it, you can imagine what happens. This is a romance book after all. They find themselves in Afganistan involved in a highly dangerous mission op that turns their lives upside down. With another Seal proposing to Delany, Tuck not admitting his true feelings for Delany, the twists and turns in this book will keep you glued to the pages. I really, really liked this book. It’s very military based which I felt right at home with as I’m so closely involved with the military myself. The author uses a lot of military lingo in the book so you might find it a little confusing at first, but you’ll catch on soon enough. There is a lot of fighting action in the book that will give you a good insight to what military live is like along with the hazards and dangers that our men and women face each day fighting in the name of freedom. The author did her homework, and even though it’s a rather short book you will gain a new respect for the military way of life. There was only one error that I saw in the story as far as grammar boo boos and I thought that the editing was good in that respect. The author keeps the story moving, it doesn’t drag and bore you to tears. There are a lot of twists and turns in the story line and the characters are lively and will bring you into their lives through telling their story. The sex scenes in the book are very clean, not raunchy and in good taste from the author. Which is refreshing to me, after reading some that get so down and dirty it’s kind of sickening? All in all though it was a very good read I wish that it would have been a longer story though as it was definitely my cup of tea.

Just read this wonderful book by Miss James!! She takes the reader on a ride of honor and suspense I side the military..The chemistry between Tuck and Delaney is strong but they fight what is growing between them...their friend Cory gets in the.picture he falls for Delaney and wants to.marry her but she loves him as a brother, she loves Tuck who is honored bound by not getting in the middle...A must read for truth, honor and.love!!

I enjoyed reading this book, but it took me a while to get into it. It kept you on your toes and wondering what would happen next. It had a nice, surprise ending.

This one has been on my Kindle for a while and I finally decided to read it. I am a big Elle James fan and this book lives up to what I expect from her. I dont do spoilers that being said you need to get this one and check it out. I encourage everyone to get this one. This is a well written story and the characters are awesome. Give this one a chance.

Tuck and Delaney certainly have a rough road to their HEA. Commitment phobics, they cannot declare and enjoy their love. Delaney commits to Reaper after a tragedy in Afghanistan because of fear for his life. Tuck reluctantly honors Delaneys commitment through guilt. It takes tragedy and honor on both sides to find their way. A serious war theme, yet simply written and entertaining.

The story of Navy Seal term. Reed is in love with Delaney but Delaney is to marry Tuck. Tuck and Reed are in the same term when Tuck is hurt in a mission Delaney can not broke the engagement. Can she do it or will she marry? Story to slow for mr.

Very erotic book with SEAL adventure. Elle James writes all of the books that keep you reading until you pass out and sleep. This was a real page turner and I had a hard time putting it down. You wont be disappointed!

** spoiler alert ** I liked this book and was glad for the twist at the end. It totally caught me off guard. This is the first book I have read from this author and it wont be the last. The characters are well developed, to the point that I wanted to yell at Tuck to open his mouth and save himself. It is a fast paced book with Alpha males and a gutsy and sexy female pilot. If you love hot military guys and a sexy heroine, this is the book for you. Delaney OConnell (Razor) is one of the very few women pilots who fly the Seals into missions. She is Army, a pilot with the 160th. She is very career oriented and tries to not do anything that would hurt all her hard work. And sexy Seals are definitely something that could hurt her position. Reed Tucker (Tuck) is a sexy Seal. He and his best friend Cory joined the military together and have come up through the ranks together. He is very interested in Delaney. Cory Nipton (Reaper) is Tucks best friend and a fellow Seal. He is interested in Delaney as well. Delaney is on probation as he only female in command flying for the 160th SOAR. Her job is to fly the Seals into their dangerous missions. She has worked very hard for 3 years to get where she is. She knows that getting involved with a Seal would look very bad for her. Plus, she has been down this road before. She lost her future husband just a couple of weeks after they were engaged so she doesnt want to go there again. But Tuck was hard to resist. They had hooked up and she knew she had to put a stop to it. At a bar when they were all blowing off steam, problems arise when Cory asks her to marry him in front of the team. She does not give him an answer, but says she will think on it. Tuck is hurt by this, but does not tell his friend that they had been together. While they are deployed, a mission goes horribly wrong and Cory is hurt bad. She says yes to him to ty to keep him from dying, even though she loves Tuck, who is unable to tell her he loves her. When Tuck is invited to Corys wedding, he believes his world is ending. The twists and turns of this book will keep you guessing right to the ending. This is a fun, sexy read.
