GRR Reviews Claiming Her SEAL (ASSIGNMENT: Caribb by Kat Cantrell

Claiming Her SEAL definitely flip the trope when it was the ex-SEAL being the chasee, not the chaser. It was about comparing personal demons and coming out stronger for sharing the burden is what made life worth living.

Dex Riley, ex-SEAL, now runs a diving excursion company in the Caribbean with many of his ex-SEAL buddies. He sees women in two types: those who don't ask questions about what he used to do... or those who wish they never asked. He was not surprised when a resort guest, Emma Richardson, wanted him for a vacation fling... But he was surprised when Emma was not repulsed by his demons... as she had some to share as well...

Fortunately there is no SEAL abuse in this novel (which I define as making SEALs do stuff they would never do) as these are ex-SEALs and the romance actually was quite good. It's a charming tale, not too deep, not too angst-y. But beyond the novel trope flip, it's a pretty standard fling to a thing romance.
