A hardened military machine, Bram Magnus is a tough, combat-ready, all-American hero who never surrenders. But the one thing he can’t fight? His smoldering, intense attraction to his girlfriend’s younger sister. He’s always kept his feelings locked deeply down. But when his girlfriend betrays him the night before he ships off to Afghanistan, Bram has one chance to show the woman he’s resisted for years that he wants her as fiercely as the first day he saw her.
Ever since her older sister first brought home the soldier with steely hard muscles and piercing eyes, Jaelyn has wanted Bram, and when her sister casts him aside the night before he leaves, Jaelyn can’t resist one steamy hot kiss with him. But danger is not far behind, and even as a deadly enemy hunts them, their relationship only grows more explosive. It’s all Bram can do to keep Jaelyn safe, but with a threat this powerful, will they pay the ultimate price for their passion?

My Rating: 4 stars
Take To The Limit brings us back into the Special Ops world of some very fine men, their ladies and their enemies. Brian and Jaelyn will have a lot to face together between family and enemies. This story is intense, yet I expect nothing less for these heroes.
LeAnn and Brian weren’t all that serous, yet cheating the night before he was to leave to face his next tour was definitely a seriously crappy move. While Brian had always been attracted to her younger sister, Jaelyn, he’d held back for obvious reasons. But Jaelyn took that control away when she showed him exactly what her feelings were with one steaming, serious kiss. Now everything has changed, two people who actually want to seriously be together get that chance… until enemies unite to make sure that no one has a happy ending.
Take To The Limit is an intense journey of new love and the actions of men out for their own versions of revenge. Of course, one family member causes trouble as well but that is nothing compared to kidnapping… or worse if their plans are successful.
I enjoyed this romantic suspense story on several levels. It’s always good to be back with the ‘crew’ of an ongoing series. And while the relationship between Brian and Jaelyn may have seemed taboo it truly wasn’t at all. He originally picked the wrong sister, life happens and we learn from mistakes. The real tensions come from old enemies pairing up to make life hell. The danger is off-set by the growing love between our couple. All they have to do for that happy ending is survive.
Once again, I enjoyed my time in this world and would recommend Take To The Limit, and the entire series to any reader who enjoys tightly woven plots, vile bad guys and one likable couple who will work their way through drama to their own happy ending.
