I started this book earlier today and just finished.  It was actually the first book I've read in weeks.Alana's writing is very to the point, and I liked it. Sure the book is right under 200 pages, but everything that's written had a point. She didn't add in a ton of extras just for the sake of making it longer.Patrick is a Navy SEAL and his job is his life. He eats, sleeps and breaths it. His only company is that of Vic and Kyle, his SEAL brothers.Then he decides to head to a brothel. There he meets an American girl who was kidnapped five years prior, and who is believed to be dead. Patrick knows he has to save her, he just needs the time to figure out how he's going to do it-- especially since he has to go rouge doing it.With the help of his brothers they are able to save her and together they help get her clean and back home where she'll be safe and loved.Getting her ready to go back home wasn't easy, and during that time Annie came to depend on Pat. He was her rock, the good in a world where she had lost hope. Pat knew Annie was different from all the other women he'd ever met, but in his line of work there was no time for a girlfriend or wife, so while the feelings were there, he pushed them away.Annie learned a few things during her captivity though and two of those things were strength and determination. Both of which she would use to get through to Pat.  Luckily for her she wouldn't have to work to hard, because sooner rather than later Pat learns to stop fighting his feelings.Did I feel like the ending was rushed? Yeah, a little. But it didn't bother me too much. I would have really liked an epilogue though. Maybe 7 months later after Patrick comes back home...All in all this book worked for me. It held my attention and took me out if my rut. I'm already looking forward to Kyle and Vic's stories.
