Shielding Aspen by Susan Stoker












4 Star

Aspen wanted a man he went on a couple of dates with to leave her alone.  She has asked and justified why they won’t work but he won’t take no for an answer.  After yet another spurned advance she walks up to a man in a bar and kissed him.  Using this random man to deter the guy she ends up with another soldier.  However, this one is a good one.  Brain has never had much luck with women.  He was too smart and too awkward.  When a random woman kisses him in a bar, he is enthralled with her.  When their relationship continues to deepen the could have been was not happy and was determined to make her and everyone else’s life miserable.

I enjoyed this book for the most part.  I didn’t really feel like the bad guy was really a bad guy.  It was more relationship book than here is this big bad guy that they will need to be rescued from.  I really liked Aspen’s character.  She was struggling with who she was and whether she should stay in the Army.  Brain frustrated me.  He was very smart but very stupid man.  Aspen made him a better person.  The ending literally sets up the rest of the books in the series and now I have to wait an indeterminate time to get all of them.  I really need to stop reading that last couple of pages of her books to not torture me with the wait.
