Light Up the Night The Night Stalkers M L Buchman 9781402286971 Books
I love M. L. Buchman! He brilliantly writes truly strong and intelligent women with wonderfully unique and kick ass skills! He also writes smart and humble men as their counter points and that's exactly what you find in Tricia and Billy. I love that Buchman does thorough research on military life and his descriptions on missions and military equipment and weapons is mind boggling. I feel like I'm truly learning something new and that his military scenes are accurate and therefore exciting and action packed. Throw a bit of romance in the mix and I'm hooked! I also love that he makes his main characters more equal and they are more like partners than just a lovely dovey couple. They are each talented and strong in their own way so when they get together, it's that much more interesting to witness two fully grown adults share their strengths and vulnerabilities with each other. I get tired of the New Adult genre of young, clueless (and usually damaged) kids who have no direction in life play relationship games. Or worse, the alpha male man whore who meets the virginal innocent and suddenly he changes his playboy ways to be with her while beating up every male who even glances her way and she "saves" him by her sweetness and kindness while giving her V card to him with the speed of lightening. This is not Buchman's style! Billy has every right to act the big tough alpha male. He is a SEAL after all. Butt he's not. He's skilled and crazy good at his job but that's it. On a ship full of other military special operators, he's just a guy who's really good at his job. Tricia could easily act the arrogant SOAR pilot, one of only a handful of women who do this job. But she's not. She's just trying to stay sharp so she can not only stay on the team but make a good reputation for herself as a good team member. Like I said, two fully grown adults! And like I said in my heading, more please!

Light Up the Night The Night Stalkers M L Buchman 9781402286971 Books Reviews
Another winner from this author, one of my favorites. I can hardly wait until the next book is released. Some of the information in the books is technical stuff but it doesn't interfere with the story. As a result, I know a lot about helicopters and the Night Stalkers - who are not imaginary and who are often involved with Navy Seals and Special Ops.
This is the fifth full-length novel in the series. By now I've come to expect the great action scenes that make me feel like I'm right there and the great heroines. Buchman does military romance very well, never short-changing the setting and action or the emotional thread of the story. I can't wait for the next one! Highly recommend to those who enjoy military, suspense, action romance.
I have enjoyed all of the Night Stalkers series, and I definitely liked Trisha and Billy's story. Against the backdrop of military missions they learned to understand and rely on one another. I like the way Buchman creates strong characters and focuses on their military skill as well as the relationships they become involved in. Looking forward to reading the next book in this series.
Loved it! Just as good as the previous books in the series. This is a great series, if you haven't tried it or military type action/romance this is the one to start with. Great action and great romance without being over blown.
This is the 5th book in the series, they are all pretty much stand alone but, as with any series you have a better understand of the surrounding character's if you read them in order.
This book is a fantastic way to use your time and money! These books are definitely some of the best that I have ever crawled into during a month long one click binge!
My Review
I've been a fan of this series from the very beginning. The technical aspects in this one did get a bit too much this time, but that could have just been my mood because I've enjoyed the technical aspect in the other books. Regardless, I just got where I was just scanning that part of the story because the romance in this one was fantastic.
Bill is a SEAL. He comes into contact with the NightStalkers when they are called in to rescue hostages from Somali pirates. Bill has been embedded undercover with the pirates for several months, but his mission is about to go to crap when Trisha saves him in her Little Bird helicopter. He's not exactly happy with the rescue since it blows his cover and that was before he discovered that it was a woman doing the rescuing.
Like all the Night Stalkers, Trisha is an incredible helicopter pilot, but she's new to the group and has some things to learn about teamwork. She's always been the best and reacts that way. But now in a team where they are all that good, she needs to react as part of the team so that they all perform better. It's an adjustment for her. Trisha was a complex character. She grew up as a very wealthy Bostonite, but chose to run with a gang and live on the street rather than deal with her parents. As a result, she's an interesting mix of really tough girl socialite.
I loved these two characters together and loved how we got to know their families and backgrounds in the story. I loved how they react to one another and just how good both of them are at reading other people. Bill's knowledge when Trisha gets shot gave me goosebumps. They were simply right together. I also enjoyed the fact that this book took place on an almost deserted ship...it created an interesting ambience to the story. And I've said it before, any of these books where Michael makes an appearance is good in my view. I love the connection between him and Trisha.
This is also an amazing book in that it spotlights the mission in Mogadishu that went so wrong twenty plus years ago. My husband was in the Air Force and was part of the responding mission to that incident, which was my first deployment as a military spouse sitting at home watching the horror on CNN. I liked that the book brought it to light again, because those men that lost their lives and were wounded sacrificed so much. They deserve to be honored and not forgotten. Mistakes were made and good men lost everything because of it, but this book brings hope (even in a fictional world) that those mistakes were learned to save other lives later. It's hard to believe that country continues to be such an incredible hotbed of international crimes. Hopefully, someday that will change.
I was worried because the epilogue of this book was written like it was a final book in the series...with a glimpse of everyone from the past stories, but I was happy to see on earlier today that there is another book listed as coming soon in this series. Yay! I love the Night Stalkers and still have hope that Michael will find his HEA soon, too!
I received a complimentary copy of this book in return for an honest review.
