A review by jasmyn9
Accidental SEAL by Sharon Hamilton

4.0

The think I liked most about this book was the way the characters related with each other. We have humor, misunderstandings, loyalty, and betrayal. The SEALs on the team are very close and I loved how you could see that every time they were together. We get to know most of the team to some extent - it was a great way to introduce them while still focusing on our main character, Kyle.

Kyle is a hard man - but that makes sense because he's seen and done things that were necessary, but not easy. But he seems to melt just a little when Christy is around. She seems to understand him without him having to really say anything. Their first meeting was a bit rough, and I'm not sure I would have been able to get over it like Christy had. There were a handful of times that the characters acted a bit - over the top, but this is a fantasy and it definitely kept the book very entertaining.

I had a hard time relating to Christy at first, but she definitely grew on my by the end. She's a tough little princess-like girl that knows what she wants, at least most of the time. She is put under quite a bit of stress and has a good mix of cracking under it and fighting back.

As with many military romances, there was a lot of action. But in this book it was spread out and given in doses that were easy to absorb without getting too much. It was very well done and the military story arc was incredibly exciting.
