Tissues, Please!

Zak has something to prove. As a teenager, he’s been irresponsible at times, but now he is ready to become the man he is supposed to be. Becoming a SEAL has been his dream and as he prepares to leave his small town in pursuit of his goal. He cuts all ties with Amy his former girlfriend.

When Amy finds herself in the center of a terrorist attack, newly minted SEAL Zak comes to her rescue. When the tables are turned and Zak needs help will Amy be there to save him?

This story is intense and so raw! It will rip your heart out and stomp all over it. How Sharon Hamilton can weave so many emotions into one story never ceases to amaze me, but this one stands out as one of the best. If you have any love for our wounded warriors, then you’ll want to listen to this audiobook.

JD Hart narrates and as always he does a wonderful job on this fully voiced production. He brought something special to this story. The way he conveyed Zak’s feelings of anger, sadness, rage and ultimately love in this audiobook was unparalleled and I’ll remember this heart-wrenching story for a long time.

This audiobook was received in exchange for an unbiased review!

Another 5

Another 5 stars addition to the SEAL romance only Ms. Hamilton can write with her unique style. I loved reading both stories but listening to Mr. Hart telling them is another experience in itself. I laughed, I cried, I yelled, this stoy is an emotional roller coaster but with a good satisfying ending.

The author provided me with a complimentary copy of this audiobook with no expectation of a review If your looking for a great book to listen to while your driving or just relaxing this one is for you.

Another touching story about Navy Seals

What about J.D. Hart’s performance did you like?

I have already heard a few audiobooks narrated by J.D. Hart consider him one of the best narrators. It's easy to tell what character is speaking and their feelings ,by his intonation. Great choice for these books

Any additional comments?

This is another of Ms Hamilton’s Navy Seal books. I have to say that the beginning was slow and I almost stopped reading it. But , knowing it was a book by one of my favorite authors,I didn’t give up. I am glad I did because after the first 1/4 of the book, it finally caught my interest.
This story centers around Zak, a new member of the Seals , and Amy his girlfriend who later becomes his wife.
But the real story is that Ms Hamilton brings to the forefront the sacrifices the soldiers and their families make to keep us safe in this country. Some come back with physical and emotional injuries. Some so devastating that the world they knew no longer exists .
We , as a Nation and as individuals, need to do more for them. For that awareness, I thank you , Ms Hamilton.

Love, fear and heartache leaves you wanting more

If you could sum up True Blue SEALs: Zak in three words, what would they be?

Adventurous, heartbreaking, and hopeful

What other book might you compare True Blue SEALs: Zak to and why?

This book was very different from most that I've read in this genre. This story was not at all what I expected, but in the best way possible. I expected the normal guy and girl re-unite, something major comes between them, they work it out and live happily every after. In this book, the characters are so much more complex and as a reader/listener, you can't help but to feel something for each character and their story.

Have you listened to any of J.D. Hart’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I love J.D. Hart, and have listened to several of his audio books. You can tell he has a passion for his career, and brings each character to life.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

This book tugged at my heart strings. At times I found myself thinking, "this can't be it, please tell me there is more."

Any additional comments?

I received this book for free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. This in no way affected my opinion of the book, or the content of my review.

This book keeps you glued to hour seat.

Loved every bit of the two books about Zak and Amy. They have a tove that sticks through anything. I Wil be listening to this again.

Relationship test

Any additional comments?

I liked this audio book. It has the two stories of Zak and Amy. You get to see how their relationship was in high school and how it developed as they grew older and more responsible. Zak joined the SEALs and became more responsible for his actions. He and Amy got married before his first deployment. The mission had accidents happen. Zak ended up with injuries. The last part of the story is how Zak and Amy have to work through the problems that come with that. It brings to our attention how military families have a lot to go through. I received a copy of this book and am reviewing it with my own opinion. This is worth a credit!

Realistic story that has me coming back for more!

I loved the journey of Zak and Amy. This book included the prequel of them getting together, and then the main story when Zak gets injured and Amy has to deal with challenges on her own as well. I love that this story isn't sugar-coated and at times hard to not want to punch Zak in the throat, lol. Great story, narration, and writing!

great for a trip!

Would you listen to True Blue SEALs: Zak again? Why?

Once you start you will not want to stop listening. Ms Hamilton's book are always mindblowing and grab you reads. But this audio, OMG. Not only does the story grab you but the narrator changing voices and tones to go with the characters!! They always seem real but J.D. brings them even more to life. This was given to me as a gift but I guarantee I will click the extra money to buy the audio versions when I buy the book. I think this would also be a great gift to someone who drives or travels a lot. They will thank you for it. Outstanding book and outstanding narration.

What was one of the most memorable moments of True Blue SEALs: Zak?

When Zak was talking to himself about what he thought she was thinking, knowing she wasnt thinking that. So true to real life. Reading into something wrong.

Which scene was your favorite?

When she finally sees the damage and touches and kisses it.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I laughed, cried and screamed during this book. It had me going in all directions. But then coming together it was worth it.

Any additional comments?

Ms Hamilton's writings always tear at me but this audio, she picked the right narrator. He knows the characters and brings them across that you feel you know them, know their reactions, there true feelings whether it be mad, love or teasing.So worth buying.

One of my Favorites!

I loved Zak and Amy's book. What can I say I am a sucker for a good high school sweetheart story! Especially with these combination of novel and novella. So you got to see these characters grow from being an adolescent infatuation to an adult love and everything that comes with it!
