I was really looking forward for this new installment of the series and wasn't disappointed. Ryan and Candace's romance is a great addition to the series.  I absolutely loved how these two strong willed personalities would make things work out between each other and that they were willing to take risks for their love. Great!Why not 5 stars? Unfortunately there were several details that bothered me:- Candace is very strict with rules. This is explained by her family background but was there a concrete incident that led to this behavior?- Ryan was a very private person concerning his family. Why? Any skeletons in the closet the reader should know about?- A lot of military jargon (abbreviations) that are explained in the back of the book but somehow "interrupted" the atmosphere of the book.- Candace's grandmother was a great character, her very "specific gesture" towards Ryan however was in any case out of any context, even more so because it wasn't elaborated at all.- I'm a total fan of "happily ever after" and should a book not end like that it really gives me a hard time. "Tactical Strike" didn't disappoint in this respect but the ending was very very sappy and nearly destroyed the previously very carefully crafted relationship between Ryan and Candace.- Finally, the biggest disappointment for me was that I didn't find out what repercussions the main characters' relationship would have on their careers. I thought that these two were so career oriented that their professions would be a major component in their lives, hence would deserve at least a little paragraph to what would happen to their jobs.However and in any case, an absolutely recommendable read - can't wait for the next installment!
