Same problems. I'm learning to ignore exclamation points. The dialogue kills me. But it's the head hopping that makes me want to throw my kindle across the room. I feel like, while these books poke at important things (mental health, ptsd, anxiety, etc), it seems to solve all the issues with touch and/or sex, which... er... doesn't sit well with me. I have finally figured out what this series reminds me of, though. It's basically a gay military soap opera. If you go into it knowing the technical issues and accepting that it's daytime television on paper, it's not a bad way to spend an afternoon.

Another great book in this series. Each book just gets better and better as another little piece to the puzzle is revealed. And with each book I cannot wait for the next book to come out. This book left me wanting the next book to come out as soon as possible.<br /><br />Delta Force and Team Panther are back again but this time it is Team Panther’s Team member Micah’s story. Poor Micah has PTSD and is not doing well with it. He knows hat some of the nightmares are coming back to him because he is in the process of trying to get Delta, his former team member that passed away, service dog released to him from service. It has not been an easy process but Micah knows that he cannot leave Delta and he will not give up until he has him. After a lot of patience, Micah has finally been able to get Delta released to him and both he and his girls are now able to start working together.<br /><br />When someone Micah knows from his past seeks gim out for help, Micah cannot turn down Hawk. Especially when he finds out that the mission that Hawk is going on is to save Hawk’s love big term boyfriend Creed. What Micah does not expect is for Hawk to make some offhandedly comments along the way about the three of them hooking up once they rescue Creed. <br /><br />Micah never expected that to happen but the idea is definitely appealing to him. So when it does happen and feelings start to get involved between the three of them, Micah is cautious but optimistic as well. <br /><br />While on their mission to save Creed, some new information that goes back to Micah’s team mates emerges as well and now no one is safe until they figure out exactly what is going on. Along the way, other things are revealed and questions are answered and more questions come to light and danger is never far from any of these men. Can Team Panther and Delta Forces figure out who is good and who is not before one of their inner circle ends up dead?<br /><br />This was another amazing read in this series. Each book has kept me on the edge of my seat throughout the whole read. I honestly cannot wait to get my hands on the next book as soon as it is available. Annabelle Stone has done an amazing job on this series.<br /><br />Was given this galley copy for free for an open and honest review

Living with PTSD and trying to hide the aftermath from his loved ones, Micah uses the strength and bond with his retired military dog, Delta, to get by. But being sent on a mission to retrieve a captured comrade leads Micah to figure out that he can also rely on others. But will Creed and Hawk open up their relationship and add Micah as a third? Can Micah accept being part of a triad and allow them into his life and his heart? With beautifully written characters and an emotional but heart warming storyline, once again Annabella Stone pulls the reader into the lives of these alpha men and honestly I do not want to ever leave them. Brutally honest and filled with angst and trepidation, this book is a must read.

Book 4 in the series I have to say is my favorite. That said the writing style takes some getting used to but by now I know to expect it. These three guys made an interesting storyline and I do hope we get to see more of them. Its a HFN but a very satisfying read. 4.5 stars. Rounded up to 5 stars because the series as a whole is worth reading.

<strong>If you love suspense, fast pace, military ops but need a little strainer romance this is a great find!</strong><br /><br />Delta Force Team Panther Books 1 to 7, by Author: Annabella Stone<br /><br />Jonah's Compass, Tied Up In Steele, Malik's Redemption, Micah's Promise, Christmas Panther Style, Grif's Salvation and Jason's Justice.<br /><br />I was addicted Book 1 to 7 I couldn't put it down. It has Special Ops Military action the non stop rescue at the risk of their own lives and their families. Then add in in Military Operations telling the good guys from the bad is extremely difficult. Not to mention its all based on intel which is another challenge good vs bad. Its amazing any if these missions are ever successful. This gives a new respect ? for Mitary & Mercenaries Heros that risk it all to defend & rescue.<br />With 7 books I just can't do each book Justice so extremely brief comment on a few. Terrific written extremely well<br />☆☆☆☆☆5 Star Reviews☆☆☆☆☆<br />Book 1 Jonah & Matt, you have to read even if you skip the rest. The Don't as Don't Tell nightmare it put on LGBT Military is horrific.<br />Book 2 Steele to have Alphabet Soup (CIA, FBI, Ghost, Delta & more) and the connections to reach them impressive. More so is the one tha captures his heart.<br />Book 3 Malik & Zeke, To die to protect the ones you love the upmost sacrifice. Risk it all for love?<br />Book 4 Micah intro to Triad to build his family. Hawk, Creed & Delta K9 assist with Micahs PTSD.<br />Book 5 Allie the Pilot on Ghost Crew has her child Lexi is endangered & Pathers find out a huge Betrayl.<br />Book 6 Grif, Rock and Allie another Triad in ghis team. After Book 5 this Family holds some surprise. Life & death assist with living.<br />Book 7 Jason this is one of my favorite- i reread it twice. High walls but Major Fritz stays strong & being taken brings the walls down.<br />This series is a keeper, one you can reread over & over.V3 knidnap. Torture, sold out +, S3 mature Gay romance & Triad

Mauvais. L’intrigue passable mais le développement de la relation médiocre à catastrophique. Situations inexploitables. Deux des MC sont déjà ensemble apparemment dans une relation établie et pourtant on ne ressent ni l’affection ni leurs liens. Ensuite vient le 3ème partenaire comme un cheveu sur la soupe. Une partie de touche zizi à 3 dans une cave suite à un sauvetage toujours en territoire ennemi et c’est bon. Pas de sentiments, pas d’attirance véritable ni de discussion. Et là je n’étais même pas 20% du livre. Le couple établit veut 3ème disons que c’est plus l’idéal de l’un des partenaires, à ce stade on se demande pourquoi. J’aurai compris si la base était de l’affection mais ça sentait juste quelque chose comme ça. Quelque chose d’utile pour faire un ménage. C’est tout. Mon ressenti à 24%. L’investissement dans le ménage est plus d’ordre pratique que vraiment sentimental. Le 3ème partenaire est là pour nous tirer une larme à cause de son syndrome post traumatique. Ridicule!! C’est décevant ! L’utilisation sans fin de la bite magique et l’amour est l’unique remède connerie et mièvrerie! C’est l’un des composants de du remède... comme toujours les auteurs passent à côté et la plupart de l’histoire se passe dans leurs têtes. Les personnages sont plats particulièrement un qui fait que suivent les autres, tout ça sonne creux. <br />Je m’attendais à une bonne histoire vu le contexte. Mais je n’ai eu droit à des fantasmes d’une autre personne (l’épisode de la cave au Pakistan!!!). À j’oubliais le manque de crédibilité. Oui faire des recherches en armement c’est bien mais savoir écrire une histoire cohérente c’est mieux.<br />Être écrivain n’est pas donné à tout le monde. Je pense que dès fois vaut mieux garder ces histoires dans sa tête.<br />

It’s hard to keep up with all the twists and turns of the overlying arc in this series. It is so well thought out and we are slowly drip fed more and more of this highly addictive tale. This time it is an MMM romance between Micah, Hawk and Creed. Their triad was beautifully written. I do hope this is not the last book in this series. Everything has not reached a final conclusion. It would be nice to read about Jason, and about the the other triad of Rock, Grif and Shar. Hopefully more characters can be added. Well done Annabella I look forward to more of your books.

There’s no amount of words that can describe how much I loved Micah’s Promise<br />First, I was really doubting we were getting a triad and when it first happened I was SHOOK<br />I started jumping around like a little kid, holy mama this book was fire, I loved seeing the dynamics and everything, and how it worked so well. It blew my expectations and it became my favorite book from the series! <br />I also loved how the plot is developed, always giving us the unexpected <br />I need more of them, Micah, Hawk and Creed are just perfection, no words can describe my love for them
