He’s taking it all back
His honor, his freedom, and the woman he loves

Rafe Montfort was a decorated Green Beret, the best of the best, until a disastrous mission and an unforgivable betrayal destroyed his life. Now, this deadly soldier has returned to the sultry Georgia swamps to reunite with his brothers, and take back all he lost. But Juliet must never know the truth behind what he’s done…or the dangerous secret that threatens to take him from her forever.

It took Juliet Capel eight long years to put her life back together after her husband was taken from her. Now Rafe is back, determined to protect her at any cost, and it’s not just her heart that’s in danger. The swamps hold a secret long buried and far deadlier than either of them could have imagined…

My Rating:  4 stars

I’ll say upfront that I do not believe that this book or this series is going to be for every Romantic Suspense reader.  I say that not unkindly but while most Romantic Suspense or Mystery books go from point A to point B and so on with a few twists – the reader is not going to find that in Every Deep Desire.  There is a lot going on in this story.  A lot.  Which means many characters to keep track of and definite world building in the beginning.  I expect that in the first book of a series, but there are additional twists, code names, legend and lore that are also added in that, at times, seems a bit too much to appreciate when I’m trying to keep it all straight in my head.  I also believe that it would help greatly if you have at least some knowledge of Shakespeare’s works.  You don’t need to know them word for word, but a light understanding will help during some scenes.  There are twists, turns, betrayals, surprises and constant danger around every corner in Every Deep Desire.  You will definitely be kept on your toes with this story.

I enjoyed Rafe and Juliet’s story.  Yes, there were moments when I wanted to have a stern talk with them each, and I often mentally shook my head at what was happening.  Yet this couple had that magic touch that says they belong together, they simply have to figure out how to do that with their past.

If you enjoy a deep plot with twists and turns that will be completely unexpected.  If you can keep a large cast of characters straight in your head.  If you can immerse yourself in this world – then I believe you will enjoy Every Deep Desire.  I’m looking forward to where this series will go in the next book.  I may re-read this one before I dive into the next one though, we’ll see when the time comes.  I’ve been vague about the plot on purpose for I believe to really get into this book you need to experience it for yourself first hand.  I did enjoy it and if you give it the chance, I think you will as well.

*I received an e-ARC of this novel from the publisher via NetGalley. That does not change what I think of this story. It is my choice to leave a review giving my personal opinion about this book.*
