Review: A few too many US military-isms that confused me a bit, but a great tale underneath it all

I was lucky enough to get an ARC of General Misconduct, the next book in this series, in which at the very end, these leads, who in that tale were secondary characters, got their HEA. The guys were likable and honourable enough that they made me want to read their own tale, which didn't disappoint.I liked that both tales were concurrent, so that there was mention of the other set of leads too, but that both tales can be read as standalones. This is a tale with enough hot sex to satisfy, but it's also a tale that seemed real, that I could believe in. It had emotions galore - love lost, love found, the love for your child, that makes you endure and sacrifice... It had real characters who were upstanding and decent, but who had human failings, which ultimately could have meant losing the loves of each other's lives, but the strength of their heartfelt emotions came through in the end.What I love about LAW tales is that you don't just get hot sex and characters you can relate to, but that you get a great tale, one with an actual plot and HEA. The only reason for me that this loses a *, is that it was a little too full-on with US military acronyms that I as a Brit struggled with, and because though the author did eventually go into detail, this came a little too late, and by then I'd skipped parts of the book.Still, it's a great read.Ebook courtesy of Samhain in return for an honest review.
