I’ve just buried my husband. I was going to divorce him and now he’s dead.After five years as a military wife, Sienna is moving on. She’s keen to leave behind the misery of her marriage to Rob but for some reason the past won’t let her go. It doesn’t help that her closest friend, Nick, is also a soldier. Unfortunately Sienna is struggling to deny her attraction to the sexy soldier, even knowing … even knowing there can be no future in it. When the injured soldier admits he wants her just as badly, and has always wanted her, the fight to control her feelings becomes harder.
And now she’s learning things about her late husband that surprise even her. When the secrets of Rob’s life come to light, Sienna finds herself involved with some very nasty people and Nick is determined to protect her, no matter what.
As the danger grows to both her heart and her life, Sienna needs to decide if it was the military that was the problem or her late husband. Is Nick worth the heartache of being a military spouse again? And will he be able to protect her from the ring of drug dealers slowly closing in?
Author’s note: This had been updated to reflect that this is based on my experiences as a British military wife after much feedback. International readers will find there are significant differences between the US and British military. I hope this doesn’t detract from your enjoyment.

I did enjoy this book as the characters and plot were believable. I enjoyed the dual POV format. What I disliked about it, there seemed to be way too many sex scenes at times and not enough of the plot coming through. Sienna seemed too indecisive.
Not Another Soldier is a military romance by Samantha Holt. Ms. Holt has provided readers with a well-written book. I love the characters in this book, especially Nick. Sienna just burried her husband but couldn’t grieve for him since she had plans to leave him. Nick is her late husband’s best friend, but her best friend too. Nick and Sienna’s story is loaded with drama, humor, sizzle, action and suspense. I enjoyed every page of this book and look forward to my next book by Samantha Holt. Not Another Soldier is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.
Sienna had just lost her husband Rob. Nick has been in love with Sienna. But Nick is a soldier. Sienna doesn’t want to deal with military life. Nick has a hard time staying away from Sienna.

A really good romance with lots of heat.
This is an interesting book about Sienna, a recent widow, and Nick, her husbands best friend. Sienna had just convinced herself that it was time to leave Rob when he died, leaving her numb and in shock. It’s a tale of taking control of your life and making choices that will make you strong and happy. It also has a twist of intrigue that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.

This was a beautiful love story between a soldier’s widow and his best friend.
Nick has been in love with Sienna from the moment he and his best friend, Rob, met her. Unfortunately, Rob got the girl, but never treated her right. After his death, Nick seizes his chance.
Sienna is certain of only one thing – she’s done being a military wife. No matter how hot her chemistry is with Nick, she just can’t go back to living at the mercy of the military. But she can’t walk away from Nick, either, and as their romance builds a dark threat looms over them from her late husband’s secret life.
There’s plenty of steamy action between our lovebirds, in addition to nail-biting life-and-death suspense as they try to survive against all odds. This intense story was truly unputdownable, and I especially loved the HEA and heartwarming epilogue. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
A great storyline with well defined characters. It is not very fast paced and has a lot of internal dialogue. The topic of mental abuse is dealt with in a significant and sensitive way which gives great credence to the author.
