Fatal Heat: A Navy SEAL Novella (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
This was a pretty suspenseful novella written about another one of my favorite "subjects" Men in Uniform. Paige Waring is a plant geneticist who is working on a project that ends up going VERY array. Like bad things happen to good people array. She lives in the apartment next to her Uncle Mel with her love able "obedience school dropout" k-9 Max, who provides a fair amount of humorous K-9 antics to the story. Then she meets human Max, former Navy SEAL, who is temporarily living in her Uncle's place to rehab. The two meet up and the attraction is combustible.Overall, this was a pretty good read. It was short (94 pages) but there was a lot of action, suspense and romance packed into those pages. I guess the only thing I didn't really care for was the borderline Insta-Love. Things progressed a little faster than I thought they would in that department and it was a slight turn off. A surprisingly heart-tugging story. While recovering from career-ending injuries, Navy Seal Max meets Paige, a female scientist and her dog, named Max. There's an immediate attraction and sparks begin to fly between the two when Paige is kidnapped and held hostage on an island. Both dog and SEAL work together to find and rescue her. Lisa Marie Rice has written this short novella extremely well. The pain and suffering Max goes through in his recovery is so touching and tears at your heart. The relationship starts full throttle and doesn't lose its power but it's believable. Everything seems hurried; after all it's a novella and a short one at that. I really enjoyed reading this book.
