Collateral Damage by Lynette EasonMy rating: 💛💛💛💛💛
Lynette Eason never disappoints! I just love her balance between the suspense and romance (which never overpowers). Her suspense again kept my turning pages and even though my guess of a suspect was correct, I was actually shocked at the crime and this person’s heartlessness!
I loved the military setting and how the author kept the characters realistic - even though they left the military, they still struggled with flashbacks and other side effects of there stint in the military.
The author also did a great job of linking everything together - at first I was thinking how everything and everyone was connected and Lynette Eason connected the dots brilliantly.
Excited to continue this series!

About the book:
Honorably discharged from the Army after an explosion nearly killed her, former military psychiatrist Brooke Adams has set up shop to help others—but her days of helping military personnel are over. She's got her own battles to fight from her time overseas, and she's not equipped to take on more. Former Army Special Ops Sergeant First Class Asher James could handle anything that war sent his way—terrorists, bombs, bullets. The only thing that scares him now is sleep. As the shadows close in, the nightmares begin.
Finally convinced that he needs help, Asher makes an appointment with a counselor, and Brooke is pressed by her boss to take him on. When he arrives at her office she isn't there—but a dead body is. Brooke is devastated when she walks in, and Asher is a conveniently strong shoulder to cry on. But she can't take him on as a client after sharing such an intimate and unprofessional moment, can she? And he's not sure he can handle sharing his deepest fears with such a beautiful woman.
When it becomes clear that Brooke was the real target of the attack—and that her secrets go even deeper than his own—Asher vows to protect her no matter what.
