GRR Reviews Seal's Professor by Piper Sullivan

SEAL's professor failed to follow reality, and had the bodyguard failed SEVERAL times at his job. Overall, it's just a STUPID novel.

Delaney Watson is a modern day genius that can rival Einstein, and is teaching at Stanford at a young age of 25, while doing important research that can revolutionize power generation as we know it. Her genius also made her a target for espionage... and sabotage. Enter Bennett Atlas, navy SEAL (active) assigned as her TA (teaching assistant), undercover, of course. He's model gorgeous, big, charming, and protective. And she fell for him, hard. He can protect her from harm, but can he protect his own heart?

Right off the bat, the fiction departed from reality in a major way. SEAL, esp. active duty SEALs, CANNOT be deployed within the continental US, even for undercover assignments. SEALs are not cops or spies. They are SOLDIERS (or sailors, as they insist) That's against the navy's equivalent of the *Posse Comitatus* act. For that matter, Atlas is a LOUSY bodyguard. Not only he left Laney got manhandled at the dance club, he failed to detect the saboteurs trying to burn them out of her home (too busy bonking her hours before). And in the end, he resigned from the SEALs to marry her. Whop-pee-dee. Happy, yes. STUPID? Absolutely.

The version I originally downloaded was over 1000 pages. I'm glad to see in the current version, the "bonus content" had been nuked, leaving a 135 page "short novel". But really, there are much better SEAL romances out there.
