WOW, is all can ever say about anything Danielle Jamie ever writes! You always feel every single emotion at every point in her books. This is no exception! Going into this book knowing that Brittan doesn't get her happily ever after with Cane, is upsetting once you read how amazing they are together. Their chemistry is magic. This only makes you cry harder when the tragic news comes. I cried right along with Brittan, feeling like I lost a loved one. This story really hits home. I'm sure we all know at least one or two people who served for our country in the war on terror, or any war for that matter. I for one know quite a few, some close, and some not. I'm very thankful for all who serve, past and present, and always pray for their safety. I found myself hoping and wishing Cane would return home unharmed, even knowing it wouldn't happen. When Brittan meets Jordon, the sparks go wild! I loved seeing Jordon stay by Brittan's side no matter what she did or said. Even at her worst, he helped her through. Danielle really knows how to connect to her readers. You literally feel like you are living the life of these characters. I love an amazing read with so much connection. Brittan and Jordon's journey is obviously not easy, but they do get the happily ever after they both so much deserve. What a roller coaster ride it was, and I loved every second of it. I will rave about this book for as long as I can, and recommend it to everyone. Tempt My Heart is an absolute MUST READ! Five amazing stars from me.
