Breath Of Heaven, by Lex Valentine is a sweet story of healing. 

Bas and Ryder are left to care for their nephews. Bas and Ryder are a wonderful couple. I enjoyed reading about them in Afterburner and I am glad to get more of them now. In fact, I absolutely love them in this sequel, more so than in the first book. I am happy to have found this little gem.

There's a beautiful discovery of what love really means, what a father really should be like, and what family means. It's a story of not wasting any time, and taking advantage of every day. It's about dealing with a tragedy, and appreciating what one has in life. There's also some fun humor, such as spirit stick!


Breath Of Heaven is downright sweet and delightful.

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.
