Be prepared to be taken on a fast paced, over the top, action packed ride with Conner and Shawn and the Shadow Unit Team.
You will be plagued with addiction and biological poison, loads of guilt and a sh*tload of demons from the past... Just to name a few.
You will be sewn back together with courage, loyalty and love. Not only from our MC's but the entire unit.
Some of the stories are a bit over the top, but a lot of fictional action is, and I don't think I would have it any other way. The romance after the 2nd book became a little too much for me, but it didn't make me dislike the stories any less, I just seemed to skim through the sex scenes a little faster to get to the more action packed thrills. Don't get me wrong, they were well written, and I loved what Jamie did in the first 2 books with the guys using the memories to keep sane. I almost wish she would have done that throughout the series, but it was impossible in the last 2, so I understand why it stopped.
I do believe the 4th book is my favorite so far. I did NOT see that coming. I think that was more intense then being in an actual war zone.
I also think these books were written to be read as standalones, as there's a lot of recapping to catch those up who haven't started from the beginning. While I think you can read them as SA's, I don't think you'll get the entire emotional climaxing between Sean and Conner and the entire Shadow Team Unit.
I also have a feeling there may be a spin off of the Ghost Unit :)
All around, I give the entire series 4 stars. . If you love action packed stories featuring sexy military men, then I would definitely check out this series!!
