What The Darkest Hour is about:
It’s been one year since ex-Navy SEAL Ethan Kelly last saw his wife Rachel alive. Overwhelmed by grief and guilt over his failures as a husband, Ethan shuts himself off from everything and everyone. His brothers have tried to bring Ethan into the KGI fold, tried to break through the barriers he’s built around himself, but Ethan refuses to respond… until he receives anonymous information claiming Rachel is alive.
To save her, Ethan will have to dodge bullets, cross a jungle, and risk falling captive to a deadly drug cartel that threatens his own demise. And even if he succeeds, he’ll have to force Rachel to recover memories she can’t and doesn’t want to relive—the minute by minute terror of her darkest hour—for their love, and their lives, may depend on it
It's no surprise to any of my book friends that I've been on a bit of a romance junket lately. I find that they are fast, fun books that leave me with a stupid smile on my face and great dreams to look forward to when I tuck myself in for the night! This book starts out great and the pacing stays pretty even all the way to the end. I loved the brother's connection to each other and most especially the love and high regard they each had for the parents. This book is about more than just romance and sex. It's about family and I found that quite refreshing!
Recommend? For those that enjoy romance with some thrill seeking adventures included, brothers who are hot, hot, hot, and their smart significant others, then I think you would like this series!!
