"If you like James Bond you're going to love this book. ...Suspense...scorching hot sex scenes. A must read."--Once Upon an Alpha on Blowback
In the heat of the Nevada desert, the most elite military pilots in the world are about to engage in some friendly competition. Only this year, someone is changing all the rules...
RAF pilot Dexter Stone has been through his fair share of sticky situations. After living through a crash in enemy territory where no one expected him to walk away, the Red Flag training exercises should be a piece of cake-assuming he can keep his mind on the mission and not on the smart mouth of his gorgeous American competition.
As one of the few women in a sky full of hotshot flyboys, Maj. Eleanor Daniels has worked day and night to earn a coveted spot at Red Flag. And she's not about to let some cocky British bad boy distract her from winning. But when the games take a deadly turn, he may be her only hope for survival.

Cocktails and Books received this book for free from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect our opinion of the book or the content of our review.

I enjoy a good military romance and this one definitely had the workings to be something great, but I found myself bored with it at times. Dex and Eleanor were great, it was the situation they were in. I needed to know who was behind what happened to them and why. They spent quality time in the Vegas desert because of a civilian contractor and some shady government types, so why didn’t we need to know why it happened and exactly who was behind it?

The romance between these two moved very fast. One day they met and we jumped to proposals about perfect places to get married. I get when emotions run high that things could move fast, but I wanted a little more realism to their relationship.
