Customer Reviews

A decent book that doesn't quite live up to the rest, but with fun moments and some action interspersed with the romance
This book was fine. Probably the weakest so far in the series, but decent. I don't begrudge the time I spent with it at all, and fans of Cam and Blair will want to read it, if only to experience the next step on their journey. I long for the depth of the early days of the relationship, though.

Honestly, it's a testament to the strength of the characters that Radclyffe creates that I'm still interested in them and their friends. Particularly as I often get impatient with books that spend too much time on secondary characters, and not enough on the main protagonists, as this series has tended towards.

And there is a lot about their friends in this book. We get regular insight into, or at least spend time with, the relationships of Stark & Savard and Diane & Valerie. And we get the introduction of Dana Barnett, a reporter the White House orders embedded with Blair's team in order to cover her upcoming nuptials. And the return of Emory, who bonded with the team in Boston during an attempt on Blair's life. Dana is a really interesting character, in my opinion, at least as far as providing an outsider's perspective on Cam and Blair, and I enjoyed having Emory fleshed out a bit more. I couldn't help but think Emory and Dana should just get their own book, though.

The romance was top notch, for all that, with a couple of significant moments between our protagonists, and some sweet moments for the other characters. But there was a ton of build-up to the possibilities in the final confrontation, and even though I really like how it was resolved from the character-implication side of things, I feel like it kind of developed and died out very quickly. It was almost anticlimactic, and less cleverly plotted and foiled than I'm accustomed to with this series.

So it was a fun read, but no new ground was really broken, and I think it could have been plotted out a little more tightly. And as I said, with all of these interesting characters, sometimes you feel they should just have their own stories told, rather than taking time and focus away from Cam and Blair. Still, if/when another book comes out in this series I'll certainly jump right back in and buy it right away, anyway, and fondly remember the best times and character insights provided, while hoping for more.

Fabulous Suspense! Wonderfully erotic!
From the opening page the tone was set. This was going to be another terrific entry in the Honor series highlighting Cameron and Blair.

I loved that the author brought all my favorite characters from this series together in this novel. The new romance between Emory and Dana was HOT!

Chapter two was an excellent intro back to Renee and Paula - they are a tremendous couple! Fabulous having so much Valerie and Diane. And not just the couples but dialog between friends Blair and Diane and ex-lovers Valerie and Cam humanize the people.

As always the author provides a chuckle at just the right moment.

The ending will knock your socks off.

I really don't think I stopped reading until the end - I remember at some point being handed something to drink!

Too Many Main Characters
This book is beautifully written, like all of Radclyffe's other books. I love the Honor Series and have reread the books numerous times. However, I wanted to read a story about Blair and Cameron not this new Dana character, or the five or six other main characters. I stopped reading the Safe Harbor series for this very reason. I want to read about the two characters that were introduced in the beginning of the Honor Series, not the other couples they have met on the way.

Advice for Radclyffe make another book for the other main characters. Stop pushing so many people into one book.
