Hard Landing

The Echo Platoon Series, Book 2

By: Marliss Melton

Narrated by: Armen Taylor

Navy SEAL Brant "Bronco" Adams adores women but never lets himself get too close to any one of them - until he meets sweet, classy Rebecca McDougal.

Rebecca is the wife of Mad Max, Brant's commanding officer and safely off-limits - until she confesses that she's desperate to escape her nightmare of a marriage and that Max isn't the upstanding commander they all think.

Emboldened to protect her, Brant skids head-long into Mad Max's plot to do him in. Suddenly, the former playboy will assume any risk to give him and Rebecca hope for a future of their own.

enjoyed this book

If you could sum up Hard Landing in three words, what would they be?

a good installment

Would you be willing to try another book from Marliss Melton? Why or why not?

yes I have read her series Navy Seals . this was just as good. It was set in the small world.

What about Armen Taylor’s performance did you like?

Great narrator clear and I could tell who was who

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

You could. I usually listen when I walk

Any additional comments?

this was a good story. I Liked the hero Bronco. He found out his friend Rebecca was in trouble and did not hesitate to help. I am not sure I like the part where she was still married, but her husband was not a nice person I will read/listen to the rest of the series. The author writes a good thrilling mystery/romance

Hard Landing

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. The story was a good one. It had romance, intrigue, a couple of very bad guys. The author seemed to know a lot about the military and the seals in particular which added depth to the story.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Hard Landing?

The scene where everything came to a head with the bad guys with the big rescue of Rebecca who was certain that she was going to die. This was a nail bitting, pins and needles kind of situation where I kept wanting the good guys to come save the day.

Which scene was your favorite?

At the end when Broncho and Rebecca were in Hawaii discussing their future and future wedding.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Just when you don't look for it, love shows up.

Any additional comments?

The only negative I have with this book was the narrator. He did an overall good job but there were times I noticed when he was supposed to be the voice of Broncho hints of other voices he was using would creep in.

Navy Seals & Romantic suspense !!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, story is well paced and Narrator reads the story quite well.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Bronco Adams. The character is written with human flaws, he's not totally invincible. He knows he should not be attracted to Rebecca because she not only married, but married to his commander. When Rebecca's life is threaten he puts himself in danger to protect her. He wants to bring justice to those who are after power, control and money.

Any additional comments?

In this story you know from the start who the bad guys are but Marliss Melton keeps the story moving at a good pace with turns that keep you listening until the end. She also makes you want to hear Bullfrog's story next!

A new series author I really enjoy!

A new series author I really enjoy! In a similar note as Suzanne Brockmann (a fav of mine!) and who doesn't love a good Navy Seal story.

Great military romance!

This is my first book by Marliss Melton and definitely won't be my last! This book has everything I love including a sexy hero, strong heroine, danger, and a hot romance. The book is action packed and grabbed me from the beginning all the way to the end of the book. I found I like the other SEALS in the book and am looking forward to reading each of their stories. I do like that the story has the SEALs going out on a mission so we can see a little into their relationship. I hope to see more of Bronco and Rebecca in future stories.
Although this book works fine as a standalone, I did find myself wishing I had read or listened to book 1 in this series. The narrator for the audiobook does a great job and I would definitely listen to him again.
