Afterburner (Afterburner #1) by Lex Valentine







Blurb


The specter of Don't Ask, Don't Tell hovers ominously over the romance between former USAF Thunderbird pilots, Sebastian Marchetti and Ryder Beckett.

Sebastian Marchetti has spent his life doing two things, hiding his sexuality and flying. After leaving the USAF, Bas meets active duty pilot Ryder Beckett. Bas loves Ryder enough to be his dirty little secret. But Ryder loves his man so much he'll risk court martial to be with Bas.

This story was originally part of the anthology DON'T ASK DON'T TELL.

Review 
My Rating - 3.5 Stars!


Afterburner is a super fast and short romance that takes place during the time of don't ask, don't tell. Lex Valentine perfectly captures the the unfairness, helplessness, and complete lack of rights involved.

The two men grow close quickly and soon it's clear they are a long term thing.

Afterburner is a decent DADT romance that will have you feeling the pain of being forced to hide. Personally, I didn't feel a huge connection to the couple at first, but I still enjoyed the story, and am glad I kept reading.
