What goes together better than peanut butter and jam? It's a classic match made in heaven and that's exactly what Trevor Wyatt and Megan Asher are. And just in case PB&J; doesn't do it for you...there's always "marshmallow" close by if things get out of hand (read the book - you'll get the reference).Command and Control was a good second chance at love story for the oldest Wyatt brother Trevor. I love it when the hero is just a little bit bent and broken and needs to be healed by the love of a good woman. Trevor Wyatt is a man truly haunted by his nightmares of the war and he's going to have to fight himself right along side his demons before he has any hope of getting a second shot at love with his former fiancée Megan Asher. Maybe thinking she's got his replacement picked out and getting ready to tie the knot is just the kick in the pants he needs to get his head out of them and get his girl back...if she'll have him.Stevens does a good job of portraying the oldest Wyatt suffering through his survivor's guilt and his feelings of inadequacy where Megan is concerned. He felt she deserved better than him, but couldn't stand the thought of seeing her with another guy. It was the classic I don't want you, but don't want anyone else to have you either syndrome.Megan loves Wyatt. Megan's always loved Wyatt. Megan wants another chance with Wyatt if she can break through his barriers and finally get him to open up about all the feelings he's kept buried deep inside. So she offers up a tempting proposition to Trevor when she volunteers to give up command and control in the bedroom in exchange for his promise to finally confide in her. Let's just say that Trevor would be a fool to turn down her plan and his Mama never raised no fool.So in an exchange of power, things get very heated, very fast in the hallway, the bedroom, the shower and everywhere and anywhere in between. I may have been a tad disappointed in Megan that she thought the only way to get through to Trevor was by bargaining with sex, I thought she was better than that. But in the end, the plan worked and you can't argue with results.Finally I find something very sexy about a woman who calls her military man Soldier: "You swear too much soldier"; "I'd prefer you sleep in my bed soldier"; "Hold it right there soldier", and then his responding "Yes Ma`am". Very hot!Good second instalment to the series, but not as good as the first for me.
