(I've shelved this as LGBT+ because, while the focus couple is F/M, there are a few mentions of same sex couples or poly relationships.) Honestly, I'm not surprised this is my least favorite Huff book to date. Torin is, my opinion, at her best when she is riding heard on a bunch of subordinates and superiors. In this book...she really doesn't get the chance to do that. Much of it is taken up on a ‘rescue Craig' mission. (And, Craig, you bore me. I have next to no feelings for him and am just disappointed because I actually prefer Torin when she's single.) And Torin's team is comprised of ‘old-hands' - AKA: the few surviving Marines of her company. (Of which there weren't many. At all. But, hey, we get one of my favorites back!) I do have a general idea of where the series will head, now, and I will admit, even if we seem to have strayed from the beginnings of the series, I am rather excited for it.
