1.0 out of 5 stars Tedious, April 5, 2004
By 
"laurasuetoo" (Brooksville, FL United States) - See all my reviews
I generally enjoy any kind of romance with a military theme and the cover of this book quickly caught my eye. It's unfortunate, because I endured 297 pages of boredom in order to get to the anti-climatic finish.

The "heroine" of the tale, Erin MacNamera is a bland character with very few redeeming qualities. Forced to grow up as a navy brat, she refuses to engage in a relationship with a wonderful man simply because he is in the military. She is petty, spiteful, and rude in her quest to drive him away.

My biggest problem with the story is the fact that the author conveys an attitude that growing up as a military brat is a prison sentence. She fails to mention the plethora of benefits there are to being a military dependent. Most children of military tend to be outgoing, culturally sensitive, broadly educated and adventurous.

This is the first book I've read by this author and it will also be the last.

2.0 out of 5 stars Navy Brat Should be Titled Navy Bad, January 6, 2004
By A Customer
This series of books was originally published in the early 90's and probably should have been left alone after that initial publication. From the first, the outcome of this book was predictable. But, what could have been an interesting change-of-heart story; turned into a series of whining sessions. The lead female doesn't deserve her male counterpart. Her character continuously sings the sorry tune of self pity. She was truly obnoxious. By the end of the book, I wanted the Lieutenant to marry ANYBODY else. This book gets two stars for the subplots and the the perfect Lieutenant. I was disappointed with this book. Debbie Maccomber usually delivers better stories.

3.0 out of 5 stars Repetitive, March 31, 2005
By 
Annie Mae (Northern New Jersey) - See all my reviews
I liked this book even though it tended to be very repetitive. The dialogue between the two main characters seemed to go on and on and on. Also, after hearing Erin complain throughout the entire book about the fact that Brandon was "navy", I was waiting for a great ending. I felt as though the author got tired of the book herself and just ended it too abruptly. All in all, I did enjoy the book simply because it was light and airy and ended on a happy note.
