Customer Reviews
No cliffhanger – stands alone. Great SEAL story!
I’ve read and enjoyed all of the Take No Prisoners stories. Like all of the others, this one can totally be enjoyed without having read any of the others (but you should read them because they are great).
Declan O’Shea (known as Irish to his friends and team members) is on a mission with the rest of SEAL Team 10 to take down a really bad guy in Somalia. Dr. Claire Boyette is working with a Somalian doctor to help take care of the people devastated by the actions of the one that Irish’s team has orders to kill.
The mission goes bad and Irish is thrown from a helicopter where Claire finds him mostly unconscious. She risks her safety to hide him and take care of him. Irish wants to find his other teammates and find out if they are OK.
Irish and Claire see a lot of action and adventure as they try to make their way back to the US base where Irish hopes to find the rest of his team alive and well.
This story kept my attention all the way through with plenty of twists to keep it interesting. Elle James does her usual superb job of telling another great SEAL story.
I purchased a copy of this book as part of the SEALs of Summer 2 boxed set.
Seal’s Defiance
Claire and Irish were a pretty good team. Harrowing moments with al-Shabaab on their heels. An extremely quick romance began and the two of them gave us action and adventure and a little romance on the side. Good ending.
Suspenseful short story
3.5*
This is the first book (short story) of Elle James' that I've read and I really enjoyed it. It kept my attention and the story flew by.
Irish and Claire meet when she recuses him after a failed mission when the copter he was in crashes in Africa. Hiding him in her tent in the bush where her and another doctor are caring for the women and children who escaped their captured village. When Claire and the Dr. Jamo are taken to tended to the wounded from the failed attach its Irish's turn to rescue Claire. Escaping they must make it through the bush to the safety of the military base hundreds of miles away.
This story has hot alpha males, hot sexy time and nail biting suspense. It can be read as a stand alone book but I think it would of been more enjoyable if read in order of the series.
