Review: Fairly enjoyable but not as good as I thought it would be

I like this author and this series, and elements of Bull's story were enjoyable. I thought both Bull and Marly were sweet and easy to like, and they were good when together. And I love heroes like Bull, those big, gentle giants, huge all over; strong, gruff, and protective military men. I also really liked that Marly is a shorty. In many romances, the heroine is usually tall and model-like, and it was nice to read one who's only 5'0. I like that contrast of big and tall with petite and soft.But other parts of Bull's story did leave me wanting more. I wanted to see Bull and Marly be together more. I needed more face time, more of a connection. Kind of felt that, I was almost there but not quite. Also, the amnesia thing (see blurb) was a bit of a throwaway and not used to full effect; I think Marly could have handled that situation in a more interesting way, adding some conflict/tension/fight to the story. As for the sex, I wasn't totally hot and bothered by it. Not a bad read, fairly enjoyable but maybe could use a little more to it.
