Synopsis:

Sometimes the dead do rise…

Miller Darling is one of the most popular romance novelists of her time. Not bad for a woman who doesn’t believe in romance. She’s as logical as they come, and she doesn’t believe in happily-ever-afters. What she does believe in is family, so when her brother disappears, she doesn’t think twice about packing her bag and her laptop and heading out to find him.

Elias Cole lived and breathed the life of a Navy SEAL. Now he’s “dead” and his hero’s honor tarnished. The only thing keeping him sane are the men who are like him—The Gravediggers—and the woman who makes his head spin. He’s never met anyone like Miller Darling. Her smart mouth and quick wit keep him on his toes, and damn if he doesn’t find that appealing.

When Miller receives a package from the brother who abandoned her asking for help, it’s clear she’s in over her head with the mess he’s gotten himself into. She needs a professional, and Elias is just the man for the job. Only her brother is a former SEAL—the man who left his team to die—and Elias is more interested in vengeance than saving his life.


Review:
This is the second book in the author's Gravedigger series, but the first in it I have read. First- the books is definitely for ADULT reading, due to sexual innuendo, dialogue and scenes! Secondly, you do not have to have read the previous book, as the author  gives you the background you need ONLY, to make reading this book enjoyable, You WILL have to go back and read book 1 ( The Darkest Cornerif you want ALL the background on the team!. It is a very quick read, full of snappy dialogue that helps move the plot along. Admittedly, the plot isn't real deep, but with characters that are so charming and funny, you really don't mind, as you rapidly turn pages to see what happens next. And of course that also leads to making it a good beach read! If you want something light, funny, full of romance and action, this is the book for you! 

If you like the book, book 3 in the series, Say No More, will be out next week!
