Summary: A Beautiful Story!
Review: ...Okay, maybe Wes Skelly isn't quite as Tall as his SEAL counterparts in the earlier books...but he's just as wonderful. Yes, he has a semi-tortured past, but it helps us realize why he was such a jacka** in the earlier books. And yes of course we love him in the end! Ms. Brockmann takes us through Wes's maturing process in "Night Watch" and helps us understand more about our hero. The heroine is wonderful (of course) and the story is more than "fluff." As usual, Ms. Brockmann is not afraid to attack emotional issues, and she does it with style! This is a fabulous continuation of SEAL Team Ten! And I certainly hope Ms. Brockmann continues to write more stories for this category. I did have one complaint for Silhouette (not for the book - but for the title). What were they thinking? "Night Watch?" Suz's title was much better! "Wild, Wild Wes!" I know the publisher has an eye on the current market, but come on! ALL the books in the series have our hero's name in the title...until now. And I know publishers are famous for changing perfectly good names, but this is a SERIES! They should have left the name alone! That said, buy the book! Add it to your collection of TDD (if you can find all 11)...and you'll read them again, and again and again! Thanks Suzanne Brockmann, for another charmer with heart! LOVED IT!

Summary: A more accurate title would have been ALL ABOUT WES!
Review: Girls, if you're the saving type - you know, stray kittens, kicked puppies, men with low self-esteem so afraid of their emotions that they choose not to feel them - then Wes Skelly is the hero for you! He's so emotionally closed down that he only allows himself to feel much of anything when he's drunk (not a pretty sight!). This guy's going to need the mother of all savers! And Brittany Evans is a saver if ever there was one! A woman who adopted a thirteen-year-old "juvie" to save him from foster care (he's now nineteen and a baseball prodigy) she's also a nurse and a very nurturing sort. But she's not nauseatingly sweet or annoyingly good. She's smart, sassy and on occasion a smart aleck and I liked her a lot. She fully recognizes her weakness for guys like Wes and so she tries to keep things light and casual when they are set up on a blind date. A sweet friendship results and it is clear that these are two people that truly like each other. All's well until she tries to help this intense emotional cripple to see the good and the positive in himself. Well she's really got her work cut out for her as we hear all about (she's a "talk it out" kinda gal) every issue Wes has: low self-esteem, height sensitivity, the death of a sibling, a cold, distant father, his possible drinking problem and his unrequited love for the wife of a friend. Phew! This guy either needs some serious therapy or an abundance of friendship and support from the most patient, understanding woman in the world! Lucky for him he meets Britt. Don't get me wrong, I did like this story. But if you've got little patience for this particular brand of tortured hero, consider yourself warned. I'm a bit of a sucker for them myself on occasion, even though at times his problems seemed over the top. But Wes is a very likeable guy and worth the effort, though it seems Britt is doomed to a life of reassuring him (it seems she wouldn't have it any other way). And though I like Britt's character, we find out little about her other than what I've described above, that she's a great mom, that she's divorced from a guy who cheated on her and that she's jealous of Lana, Wes's unrequited love. Contrasted with the mountain of stuff we learn about Wes, she seems a bit short-changed (a chronic problem of almost all Brockmann heroines). But their friendship is sweet and their passion is hot! The background story of Lana's TV star sister's stalker, mainly serves to provide the expected, exciting SEAL Team Ten climax of the story. If you are a fan of the Tall Dark & Dangerous series, I think you'll like this book. It's a quick and enjoyable read and it pretty much wraps up all the guys from Alpha Squad, though we are briefly introduced to "the new guy" Rio Rosetti. Could book 12 be in the works? A recommended read!

Summary: Hot, Hot, Hot!
Review: I love Brockmann's navy seal series and this one is just as hot and intense as all of the others! The characters are strong and yet you get a glimpse of the vulnerability that adds just the right amount of senusality to the mix. The story continues where the last book left off and includes all of the previous characters that have generated such a great following. Keep up the great writing, so we can keep up the great reading!

Summary: The best Brockman has written. I'd give this 10 stars.
Review: I'll start by saying this is the story of SEAL member Wes Skelly and his relationship with Brittney Evans, another SEAL-mates sister-in-law. It starts as a blind date and progresses through their relationship. One of the other reviewers sums up the whole plot so I'll skip that part and delve into why I loved the book. First, I absolutely fell for Wes. He has problems, like the rest of us, and is trying to deal with them. I loved the way he felt comfortable enough to open up to Brittney about his fears and problems. Brockman gave these characters such emotions it was almost like they were real. Like the time that Wes confessed to Brittney that he thought he was an alcoholic and that the only time he thought he could say his feelings was when he was drunk. Second, I really liked Brittney. She was funny, sensitive and mature. This was a surprise, since I had been having problems liking the heroines of Brockman's most recent books, which I found very annoying. Brittney was different. She wasn't stuck on why her and Wes should not be together. She had small insecurities but nothing overwhelming. I have been reading all of Brockmans "Tall, Dark and Dangerous" books and this has to be the best one yet. I even liked it more that the first one "Prince Joe" and thats saying alot.

Summary: Brockmann's best
Review: I've been reading Suzanne Brockmann for a while now, and I think she does the humor thing well (but not as well as Jennifer Crusie), the sex thing in a way that's really quite extremely very (I can't think of another intensifier, but you get the idea) hot, and that usually doesn't make me cringe (sorry, I start laughing when sensitive things get laved and suckled), and the testosterone-blessed alpha-male thing like nobody else, but this is her first book that I don't have ANY quibbles with. And I really fell for Wes--maybe because he WASN'T tall, dark and handsome, he was short, fair, and his face was "...a face. Not stunningly handsome...but not Frankenstein's monster, either." When the two of them begin feeling the attraction, they start describing each other as beautiful/handsome, but this feels quite appropriate. The inner dialogue of both characters seems very authentic, and the conversations always read very smoothly--none of the jarring turns of phrase that can take you right out of a storyline. And it was a compelling story, because they were easy characters to care about. Only after reading it again did I start having any 'wait a minute' moments--like, why did Wes bring along a dress uniform to LA in the first place? How can he reach into his pocket for his wallet and the condom in it when...maybe this one should be left to the imagination. But I couldn't really even call those quibbles, I just had to admire how smoothly such details were slipped by me the first time. In fact, I just had to admire it by rereading it over and over again.

Summary: Romantic Times Review
Review: Navy SEAL Chief Wes Skelly is in California doing a favor for a friend when he accepts a blind date with the sister of another pal. Brittany Evans lets him know right away that she's not looking for anything romantic, and that's fine with Wes. But time together might change both their minds. Suzanne Brockman once again demonstrates an immense talent for well-developed, multilayered storytelling in NIGHT WATCH (4.5), a surefire hit.
