Review:


I have become more of a Tawny Weber fan as I keep reading her books! So far her books have a great story filled with a lot of backstory and great swoon worthy relationships!!

This book follows Elijah who is recovering from a bad mission and trying to get his life back on track while figuring out what happened.   Elijah is an elite Seal whose life has been dedicated to serving his country.   This book also follows Ava who is Elijah’s ex-wife.  She is also working on getting her life back on track.  Elijah and Ava have a very sorted history that the author does an amazing job peeling back one step at a time. 

This book is part of the Seal stories from Tawny Weber, but you don’t need to read the entire series to follow along with the book.  This can be read as a standalone with no issues as the previous characters are reintroduced. 

The chemistry that the author creates with Elijah and Ava is awesome.  It is a second chance romance, but it works for these two!! I am totally swoon worthy over Elijah.  I love the bond that the author created between the two of them.  The author created a hard backstory for the characters, but it really connected me and brought the characters to life. 

The story flows very naturally for me and is easy to follow along with.  The author does go into some military terms, but very brood and it doesn’t feel overwhelming.  

The story follows Elijah and Ava while trying to figure out their relationship, but also involves what happened with Elijah in the military.  I loved that we got a romance with a mystery thrown in.  I love when an author combines to different genres. 

I would suggest this as a perfect beach read over the summer.  The story is very fast paced and easy to follow along with.  I found it difficult to put the book down.

I received a copy of this book from Barclay publicity to provide an honest review.  This does not affect my opinion of this book.


My Rating: 4/5




Excerpt:
An excerpt from CALL TO ENGAGE
Copyright © Tawny Weber 2017

Incredible.

That was the only word in his head as the aftershocks trembled through their bodies.

Incredible.

And then he came down.

Not in a nice, slow, gentle descent, either.

Nope, he crashed like a plane plummeting from the sky to ram into a mountainside.

He’d just had sex.

With Ava.

His ex-wife. The only woman he’d ever loved. The only one he’d ever wanted to love. The one who’d broken his heart into tiny little pieces and tossed them aside.

Shit.

His body still slick with sweat, the scent of Ava wrapped around him like a second skin, Elijah wondered if she realized that while extracting her promise of no regrets, he hadn’t offered the same.
After all, Elijah knew just how pointless promises could be. Especially the ones between him and Ava.

His body spent, his mind worn, he couldn’t find anything left to offer up on the altar of past regrets, though. He wrapped his arm tighter around her shoulders. Ava responded by snuggling closer, her thigh nestled between his as she shifted her chin into the indention where his shoulder met his chest. Her breath fluttered over his throat, soft and easy in sleep.

Regret?

Oh yeah, he knew he’d regret this in the morning. Hell—he glanced out the window, gauging the time from the angle of the moon—it was nearing dawn and the regret was already winding through him. Shoving aside pleasure, easing out satisfaction.

Closing his eyes against it, he drifted into sleep with her hand entwined with his, the twisted band of her ring rubbing gently between his fingers.

And he knew it for the talisman it was, the hope that lifted him from his nightmares.

If only for tonight.

Because nobody knew better than Elijah that tonight was all they had.
