Seal's Promise by Sharon Hamilton

This is one of the entries in the Hot Alpha SEALS Anthology and I was gifted with a free copy of it in exchange for an honest review of the story.   This is a short read and like all of Sharon's SEAL books, it highlights the closeness of the men in the SEAL team and their devotion to each other and their families.  This story started off with the loss of one of the brothers and goes on from there to show how his closest friend keeps the promise to watch over  the wife and unborn child of his fallen brother.  I found it to be a very moving story but told with a simpleness and humor that made it both emotional and fun to read.  I think it brought home to me just how tenuous life can be and that those who choose to love and be a part of a SEAL's life also become a part of something larger.  It moved quickly and seemed to happen if a short time span, but the way it was told and how the characters were explained, it was believable.  Life is short and each day is precious and Ms. Hamilton is one of the best in bringing those life stories home in a realistic, in your face manner. I thought this was a well written, touching story well worth the time spent reading it.  I look forward to her next installment to her SEAL team books.  Pick this one up today and enjoy!!
