4.5 StarsYou know what’s cool? When one of your favorite authors co-writes with an author you’ve never read and you discover a “new” author to love. While I’ve read and loved L.A. Witt’s offerings for awhile now, I’d never read Cat Grant but after reading The Only One Who Knows, you can bet I’ll be checking out her backlist. Growing up around military bases, I can’t help but love M/M romances involving hot as hell military men and oh boy, does this one fit the bill. Navy SEALs, an officer and an enlisted man, and one in a supervisory position over the other, can you say rule breakers? But damn if that doesn’t just turn the heat up and make me want to read that much more and I’m so glad I did. A detailed and smart plot, two ALPHA men who both love being in charge and titillating forbidden sex make this one intelligently sexy story!Chief David Flint has seen many a man come through SEAL training but only a few have shown the capabilities needed to lead but he sees that in Lieutenant Josh Walker. While Josh struggles with the physical aspects of the training, Chief Flint is there to keep him in line and kick his ass when needed. When an act of kindness finds them alone and sharing a mutual attraction, the rules fly out the window as they give in to the desire and passion they both crave.There was no doubt of the passion between these two and when the reunite after years apart, it burns that much brighter. It was fascinating to watch their power plays during their intimate moments especially given their military ranks. I appreciated that they both realized there was more to their relationship than sex and it was worth the risk to stay involved and while that worked for the most part until a team member gets wind of their unorthodox relationship causing all sorts of questions.A rough mission, tough decisions, serious injuries, and military careers on the line round out this already full and sexy story making The Only One Who Knows a must read.Review copy provided for an honest review.
