Thoroughly enjoyed.
Great Read!
STRANDED WITH THE SEAL is a great novella to read if you are looking for a fast-paced book. It is a military romance and is full of mystery, danger, plus suspense. There was not a dull moment, but a lot of steamy ones!
Navy Seal Trevor Hawkins (nicknamed Hawk) is on a mission of revenge. He is driving dangerously fast up Warsaw Mountain in a blizzard on roads that have not been plowed. This is his window of opportunity to get the man who tortured and killed his best friend right in front of him. Nothing would stop him, except when a red car with a beautiful woman, was stranded on the road a head of him. He couldn’t keep his car from sliding right into her. There was an awful accident. His mission now had to change to saving her life. Before blacking out, she gave him a name of Olivia Grayson. He carried her to the nearest dwelling which was a deserted cabin. He did this with injuries of his own. When she finally did open her eyes again she had amnesia and remembered nothing. Hawk was left with more problems than revenge. He had to be heroic to all the problems facing him and his beautiful mystery woman.
If you are looking for an entertaining fast read than this book is for you. It left me wanting to read more books in the series, too.
Fast Pacing And Unrealistic Characters Wrecked This Story – 1.5 Stars
This book had a good premise and a few exciting moments. However, it was too short, and the fast pace made the story progression awkward. If you like an insta-lust type of story where the characters are quick to sleep with each other, you might be okay with this. To me, the best romances are the ones that take a little time to develop.
As for the main characters, Olivia and Hawk seemed shallow and not at all appealing. The scolding and the accusatory way Olivia initially treated Hawk could not be blamed on her accident. He was trying to help her and she acted like a harpy. She also had psychological issues, but it still didn’t make sense why she got mad at him instead of seeing reason where the safety of innocent people was concerned. Hawk was a hot-headed, insubordinate SEAL. Also, he also wasn’t smart, turning his back on an enemy without knowing if it was subdued yet. The rest of his team were like immature adults, so I’m not interested in reading the rest of this series.
Awesome book. Great writer
Navy SEAL Trevor “Hawk” is on a mission to avenge his teammate’s death when he crashes into another car during a blizzard. Olivia was driving the other car. She was running from her own wedding, but the accident leaves her struggling to remember anything. Sparks fly between Trevor and Olivia, but an enemy is quickly closing in on the remote cabin. The holes in Olivia’s memory might be the biggest danger of all. – The book is slow, and I did not feel the chemistry between Trevor and Olivia “Livvy.” There is a good sex scene in chapter 25 and a decent ending.
5 stars for great writing. It was way too romancey for me, but anyone who likes that, this will be a great book
destiny brought them together will she be able to do it again? Blizzard – car wreck -explosions – memory loss
Loved the interaction between Hawk and Olivia. Characters drawn to each other in an impossible situation. This book was fast moving and told a story from several different viewpoints. HEA included.
This is a great action packed, suspenseful book. Trevor is a member of HERO Force and is on a mission to avenge the death of a former team member when he literally runs into a woman stranded in the blinding snow storm they find themselves in. She is thrown clear with minor injuries and amnesia and he has an injured knee while their vehicles explode. Trevor finds them a cabin to stay in and the woman remembers her name is Olivia but nothing else. It seems the she is running from something and someone is looking for her. There is some chemistry between these two and they can’t seem to deny it.
Plotting her escape, Olivia does not realise just how close she is throwing herself into danger. Stranded on the side of the road, the last thing she expects is for another car to crash into out in the middle of nowhere. Unfortunately, the resulting explosion causes more damage than either Oliver or Trevor could have anticipated. After experiencing memory loss, the flashes of memory that Olivia experiences force her to question her safety. The story is fast-paced and suspenseful, keeping me intrigued throughout. The attraction between Olivia and Trevor is believable, especially given the circumstances but one does question whether they took safety measures seriously. Although part of a series, this book is a standalone and comes to a happy conclusion.
Good story line and great characters!
This was my first Amy Gamet’s book, and won’t be my last. This is the first book in the H.E.R.O. Force Series, a Military Romance. Trevor and Olivia’s story is suspenseful, fast-paced, and intriguing. They share an instant attraction and a strong chemistry. The storyline is captivating. I loved it! Janelle Tedesco did an amazing job with the narration. I love her voice. Now, I’m looking forward for the next book in the Series.
Stranded with the SEAL
H.E.R.O. Force, Book 1
By: Amy Gamet
Narrated by: Janelle Tedesco
Trevor and Olivia are caught together under the worst circumstances, an accident, a blizzard and amnesia! This ex-Navy seal and runaway bride have incredible chemistry and a lot more in common than they realize. Amy Gamet has kicked off this series with an action packed, suspenseful listen with just the right amount of romance. Her characters are so much fun to get to know. Olivia is vulnerable, but has an inner strength and a will to survive. Trevor is your protective alpha, strong and brave. I am loving the camaraderie between the men of Hero Force and can feel the stories building as their relationships grow.
Narrated by Janelle Tadesco, the story comes alive. This is my first narration by her and Gamet castes her perfectly. She has a great range of character voices and I loved her performance.

4 solid stars
I probably should have given this 4.5 stars.
The intimate romance scenes could have been kicked up a notch. They were close to ‘Fast Food’. Nice, but not hot and steamy. They are what I would call ‘Adult’, but just barely.
The writing and flow is off the charts perfection.
Loaded with surprising twist & turns.
Great mystery and crime elements.
Very well done suspense. Loaded with action.
I’m impressed enough that I am reading Book#2 now.
