This was one solid and very well written book. I liked it from page one.Starts with Lt. John Tucker, Skins Team, Platoon Bravo.. Tucker is a US Navy SEAL. His team and the team known as Water Dogs are on a mission. A sneak and peak in a villiage to help set up things for the Army pulling into the area. Man does it go wrong.Tucker is a big guy. He's 6'5" with blond hair and very blue eyes. He's also gay. Tucker is secure in his sexuality and its never interfered with his ability as a SEAL. Tucker doesn't think any of his teammates have any idea about his sexuality. Its still don't ask and don't tell but one never knows.On landing the Skins are attacked and many of his teammates are now dead and missing and he has no idea where the Water Dogs are. He's pretty much on his own and he's worried sick about his teammates.Tucker makes his way to a building. He's got a bullet graze on his thigh but other than that and the fact the heat, sand and sweat are a nuisance he's pretty much okay physically.Once in the building he sees two other SEALs there. One of them is Lt. Commander Alex Jackson. Water Dogs, Platoon Delta. The other man, Franklin, is badly wounded and will die.Tucker and Jackson spend three days in that buildiing. Three days with the heat and Franklins rotting corpse.  Three days for Tucker to view a Jackson he finds very interesting. Three days for Jackson to wonder about Tucker. A Tucker he finds very interesting.Jackson has black hair and green eyes. He's broad shouldered and one good looking guy.Jackson is straight. Or at least he has always thought he was. He's had sex with many woman and never, ever thought about having sex with a guy.  He's beginning to wonder as he and Tucker spend those three days waiting for the Army to arrive.So begins one damned fine and very well written book.This one has Tucker, Jackson, the Water Dogs, a mission involving a sub, training, Jackson trying to decide what he feels about Tucker, Tucker wanting to give Jackson space to decifer what he feels, the Water Dogs who know all about Tucker but don't care and one damned fine and well written story.Five Stars and then some
