review 1: 4.5 out of 5 starsAs anyone can tell from my list of recent reads, I love romance novels. It's pretty much all I read these days. And I don't care how unrealistic they may be, I love every well-written HEA, love-at-first-sight, true-love, etc. story I can get. What set Striking Distance apart was the depth and maturity of the relationship between Laura and Javier. I seem to remember seeing a quote from the author somewhere that she wrote two pages for every page that actually made it into the book. Perhaps that's the reason that this one seems so much more layered than many novels I've read recently (including the rest of the I-Team novels which are already some of the best out there), or maybe it's just that there's so much more knowledge of the supporting characters six+... more books into the series. (Lordy, how I love seeing them in each progressive book.) Even the epilogue stood apart from others in that it brings us much further into the future than usual, adding to the depth of the characters' relationship. Whatever the case, I think this was one of, if not *the* best in the series. (And having "First Strike" out there as an extra was just icing on the cake. It was both nice and sad to see both characters in a much lighter time but what it really did was add that foundation for everything that comes afterwards.) Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys romantic suspense.
review 2: It was...fine, I guess. Hot SEAL hero, tough yet feminine heroine, etc. It felt to me, honestly, like most of the high-octane passion was reserved for what the protagonists had suffered, rather than their romance. Not that the romance wasn't good, but for every page devoted to their growing bond, etc., there were two or three pages making sure I remembered how Heroine had been held captive in Afghanistan, or Hero had been forced to watch a friend die. It bordered on emotional porn in spots. less
