 I didn't know of this book until it started popping up into my feed quite frequently, so I decided to check it out. Thank you reviewers! 
 Bobby and Annabelle (Belle) were high school sweethearts who had plans to grow old together after Bobby completed his boot camp. But once he left, Bobby thought that an early marriage might not be good for them. His letter to Belle stated as so, which he later regrets immensely. Heartbroken, Belle left the town where she was an outsider. With an abusive father, she had no one to turn to. Fleeing Sylvania, Belle made something of herself and joined the ATF. Bobby on the other hand, continued with his military duties until he was shot in the knee and later recruited to join Ex Ops. 
 Bobby and Belle meet once again when they join forces to bring down drug/weapon cartel. Their first reunion didn't go as Bobby expected as Belle acted as though they barely knew each other. Wanting to explain his regret about letting her go and to know why she disappeared on him, Bobby was determined to get her back. Until a bombshell was dropped on him and Belle's secret was exposed. 
 This is where Bobby's character dropped some major points for me. His attitude towards Belle did a complete 180 turn around. He went from wanting to get her back and protect her from any harm to wanting to strangle her and stabbing her in the heart... I mean really Bobby? It continued pretty much towards the end of the book and it got tiring. He was a COMPLETE JACKASS. I get that he was hurt and his resentment is understandable, but his reactions was JUST. TOO. MUCH. 
 Belle on the other hand, was pretty consistent. I really liked her character. She had her flaws, she made mistakes, but she owned up to them. I wished she wasn't so hard on herself thinking she didn't deserve someone like Bobby. Honestly, I think she deserves even more. So you better take good care of her Bobby!! 
 I loved the two person POVs from the hero and the heroine. The different perspectives worked really well. I also like the authors writing and dialogue. Looking forward to reading more on the other characters in the book. Can't wait for Riley's book! I hope Declan and Teagan get their own book as well.
