It's Always Been You Jessica Scott




What's the book about:

She plays by the rules . . . 

Captain Ben Teague is many things: a tough soldier, a loyal friend, and a bona fide smart-ass. He doesn't have much tolerance for BS, which is why he's mad as hell when a trusted colleague and mentor is brought up on charges that can't possibly be true. He's even more frustrated with by-the-book lawyer Major Olivia Hale. But there's something simmering beneath her icy reserve--and Ben just can't resist turning up the heat . . .

. . . and he's determined to break them

The only thing riskier than mixing business with pleasure is enjoying it . . . and Olivia can't resist locking horns--and lips--with Ben. He's got more compassion in his little finger than any commander she's ever met, a fact that makes him a better leader than he realizes. But when the case that brought them together awakens demons from Olivia's past, she will have to choose between following orders--or her heart . . .

My thoughts on the book:

Ben is so not happy about the changes taking place he is not happy about the hirer ups not knowing the first thing about what its like to go to battlefield and come back broken and then watch your buddies go through hell. He has a plan and he plans to stick to it and he doesn't care who gets in his way he plans to help everyone he can and still be an active member of the ARMY. Olivia Hall is ready to face the new challenges before her and she will stop at nothing to make sure there are not special treatments or cover ups on her watch, she has seen what that can do and she is not about to sit by and let it happen again. She is willing and ready to take on the first case and persons who stop her from protecting everyone involved. She just is not sure she's ready to bump heads with someone as stubborn as Ben is she truly ready to go head to head with him and not back down.
This is a really fun book. It shows the not so pretty stuff that goes on in the military and the things people don't always see. It keeps you on the edge of your seat and has you turning every page just to find out whats going on. There is a ton of chemistry in this book between not just the main characters but the people involved. I found myself laughing and crying it truly is a heart breaking story at some points. You really can not go wrong with this book. I have to say this is my favorite book out of this series so far.

After the War Jessica Scott (Homefront series #2)



What's the book about:
A terrible loss…

Captain Sarah Anders lost her husband to the Iraq war and has nearly lost the career she loves. Sent to Fort Hood, she only wants to do her job and take care of the daughter she’s raising on her own. She never counted on running straight into a memory she’d tried to forget. A love he never forgot...

Captain Sean Nichols never got over Sarah. He simply tried to forget her amidst the war and the chaos of combat. But when she’s assigned to investigate his unit, he comes face to face with the woman no war or any amount of time could make him forget.
A dark secret…
As Sarah gets closer to the truth, Sean must accept that actions he took during the war may end the tentative love building between them. And even if Sarah can forgive him, Sean may never be able to forgive himself.

My thoughts on the book:
Sarah has has a lot of loss in her life and she is ready to start over again and give her daughter the life they both deserve, the only problem is she has a mouth that gets her in trouble and she runs into a person from her past she is just not ready to face ever again. Sean has his own demons he has to deal with when two guys in his unit seem to be facing there own demons and he keeps getting thrown into the middle since he's there boss and he is so over it. The only problem he is facing is having to work with Sarah the one person he was never wanting to see again, accept he has a secret of his own he needs to make sure he faces before he can be honest with himself and Sarah. This book is really good it had me on the edge of my seat the whole time and I found myself turning each page wanting so much more the ending was amazing and the book is really worth the read. If asked to use words to describe this book it would be intense, amazing, lots of romance and a little bit of erotic but over all AMAZING. This book and the first one Homefront are both books you will not want to pass on.

Homefront Jessica Scott


What's the book about:

A breathtaking new series from USA Today Bestselling author Jessica Scott

He’s always loved her...

First Sergeant Gale Sorren waited a war and half a lifetime for a chance to be stationed near the ex-wife who left him years ago. When he finally musters the courage to see her, the life he imagined she was living was nothing close to reality. 

She’s never stopped loving him...

Melanie never stopped worrying about Gale each time he headed off to war. But he’s never been there when she needed him and she’s had fifteen years to steel her heart against him. 

When Gale moves to Fort Hood, he finally has a chance to make things right with Melanie and the daughter she raised without him.

But Mel can't trust her heart to a man who has always let her down.

My thoughts on the book:

Jessica Scott has done it again and wrote an amazing book. This book will not disappoint at all. This book is for some one over the age of 18 in my option. 2nd chance and a chance at love are not what you always think of when you think of coming home from war and having to deal with some really tough things, at least thats what Gale Sorren believed. Melanie built a wall and she did not need anyone in her life but her daughter and even then she wonders if her daughter would be better off with out her and then she comes face to face with the past that she just was not ready to take on.
This book was AMAZING I had a hard time putting the book down. The book did have some really strong language and deals with some really tough issues. However the book was not so intense that you feel over whelmed by the thought of reading of these issues. I love how this author did an amazing job with the storyline and the chemistry through out. The will power in the book was amazing. 

I was given a copy for my honest review.
