Chief Petty Officer Gabe Thorne wins at everything he
does, and he never needs to pursue women because they
always fall at his feet until the day he must take
action. Gabe's code name is Romeo, for obvious reasons:
he is a ladies' man, he never gets involved, but he knows
how to always remain a gentleman. Gabe is attending his
SEAL colleague and friend Mitch's engagement party when
he spots the only woman who ever had the nerve to turn
Gabe down: Tessa Monroe. Tessa is gorgeous, and she knows
it without being snarky: she's sexy, self-assured and she
uses men like tissues. She avoids Gabe like the plague
because she knows his type, and she doesn't want a
player; she decides when and how to start and end her
casual flings. When Gabe tries again to approach Tessa
and she brushes him off again, he understands there's
only one way to win over this woman: it's time for
Operation Romance!
A SEAL'S PLEASURE feels like the first day of spring:
bright and invigorating! The latest instalment in Ms.
Weber's long-running SEAL series is much lighter in tone
than the more recent books, which featured darker
content. A SEAL'S PLEASURE is bright and airy, vibrant
and lively. Ms. Weber's sense of humour makes a comeback
in full force: the banter between Gabe and Tessa,
especially at the beginning, is quite funny. At the
beginning, A SEAL'S PLEASURE seems like what could have
been somewhat formulaic but the author chose a different
path which surprised both me and Tessa; I think it was a
clever move, as it allows for further character
development.
I like that A SEAL'S PLEASURE features a Native American,
Gabe has a Cherokee grandfather, and it is not an issue.
It's refreshing to see non-Caucasian characters and that
it's taken all in stride; it's simply a part of what
makes Gabe what he is, the same as his hair or eye
colour. A SEAL'S PLEASURE is a bubbly, sparkling, happy,
sexy read.
Mission: Initiate Operation: Romance - and prove that one
night isn't enough!
Explosives expert and Navy SEAL Gabriel "Romeo" Thorne
makes
his living tempting fate. Pushing the limits. So far, he's
never lost—especially when it comes to women. That is,
until
his best friend's wedding, where Gabriel is suddenly
face-to-face—and deliciously body-to-body—with the one
woman
hot enough to detonate his self-control.
Tessa Monroe is used to being in control with men.
Gabriel,
on the other hand, is pretty much her sex kryptonite.
Hard,
gorgeous, dark-eyed kryptonite. Even as her defenses
whisper
"danger," lust demands she take her pleasure with him and
then run. Now they're skirting the edge of an explosive
attraction - where one wrong move could mean disaster.
