Do or Die

Author: Suzanne Brockmann
Stars: 4.5
Review by: farmette

This was good...listed as TSI book 18, but not really.. introduces a new set of characters.. from a different SEAL team..!!..but, they do refer to TSI and FBI people that we know and love...Sam, Aylssa, Jules are mentioned and Yashi plays a role.. the new people are SB interesting and the book grabbed.. the good guys win the battle , have the best sex ever and get married, or at least exclusive.. interesting pair of characters in this book are 2 men married to each other, and their almost new born child.. hard to get a babysitter when you need to go on an op.. the previous book (#17) included an interview with SB and she was asked if she "flew the rainbow flag".. much to my surprise she said NO.. she said she flew the American flag that was all inclusive and accepted everyone.. that answer is at least a cop out, or at most wrong.. she provided that answer in 2009, and while the Supremes have changed things some, it still is not as true, as i at least would like it to be.. a much better answer would be to acknowledge, that, she flew the rainbow flag to call attention to a vey large group of loved and respected people that face serious discrimination.. and still do.. she mentioned some time ago she was the first romance writer to include gay relationships.. she was, and she has continued to have a gay man relationship in each book.. not to be picky, but it might be time for a gay woman or two..
