I'll be honest, the first book was an okay read, but this one felt kind of repetitive a bit. I can see the appeal, but I just couldn't enjoy it as much.

The last (thankfully) book in this series offers nothing new. Rehashed "plot" and characters, flimsy romance, and iffy suspense.

Leslie North writes FAN.TAS.TIC Seal stories and I adored this one. It's fast, action packed and I really liked the characters.

What's it about:

Ex-Navy SEAL Jace Stevens has never shied away from trouble and with the madman framing the Brothers-in-Arms for murder still on the loose, Jace is ready to put an end to the killing for good. Only one person stands in his way: a tough-as-nails FBI agent who suddenly won’t let Jace out of her sight. But the dark-haired beauty is more than just a complication. Jace can sense there’s something special beneath her buttoned-up exterior, and he can’t wait to get his hands on it.

FBI agent Felicity Belasko always gets her man, and this case should be no different. She knows the SEAL suicides are really murders, and she’s sure there’s a connection to the Brothers-in-Arms. But are they suspects…or potential victims? When her investigation leads to Jace Stevens, she can tell the blond troublemaker is masking something even more dangerous. He wants to stop the killer on his own, but Felicity can’t let that happen. Wickedly handsome Jace may be making her wild, but she always plays by the rules.

As the heat flares between them, a killer plots his next move. Can Felicity and Jace find a way to work together, or will a madman continue to get away with murder

My thoughts
This is the last book in the Brothers of Arms Trilogy, surprisely I loved this one ,which is why I give it a five stars , now I want to go back and re read the 2nd book and give it a second chance. With this one I had no trouble growing to the characters, infact out of the 2 books I've read of this series,I have to say that Jace is my favorite character and so is Felicity.love how they come together , and how the story brings together all the characters of the book series , with that said I would love to say thinks to NetGalley for giving me a chance at reading and finding a new series that I want to at to my ever growing library.In a change for my honest opinion.

DNF. Perhaps because I hadn't read the previous books in the series? I just couldn't gel with the characters.

This bring the third book in the series that I hadn't cared for and trying to read the others without any interest, I put this book to the side...
I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Jace and Felicity are so fantastic together. This book is full of action, adventure, love, lust and just plain hot stuff. I love alpha men and the strong women who get them and keep them in line. Another great read by Leslie North and one you definitely need to add to your TBR pile.

In the conclusion of "SEAL Guardian" (Brothers In Arms Bk 3), Jace is front and center while working to find out who is sabotaging the 'Brothers-In-Arms' compound. Enter FBI agent Felicity, who is working the case of supposed suicide of veterans, and the heat begins to rise to blazing. Felicity believes the supposed suicides and the sabotaging of the compound are connected. She also believes the suicides are killings. Jace and Felicity start working as a team and are a force to behold. The action is swift, the dynamics between them is hot as they work together to solve both the killings and the sabotage. There is a well written HEA for Jace and Felicity and a great conclusion for the 'Brothers-In-Arms' compound. Each book can be read as a standalone. If you are a romantic suspense reader, I recommend all three of the books in the series. I would like to thank NetGalley and Relay Pub. for gifting me "Seal Guardian". My opinion is my own. This is mine 4.25 Stars!

Jace has been left holding the reins at Brothers In Arms. With one friend undertaking physiotherapy and another now working as his fiancees bodyguard, he has been left to deal with the day to day running of the facility. But with further SEAL deaths nearby, the Feds have now arrived on his doorstep.

Felicity, said Fed, has a feeling that the deaths of the SEALS are part of a larger story and with her partner travel to speak Jace and his partners about their involvement. But with budget cuts, she is left to run the investigation pretty much solo and with no back up, except for one very sexy, but revenge fuelled former SEAL!

Great resolution to the trilogy. All the bad guys accounted for and all our heroes with HEA! Felicity was kick ass and totally just what jaded Jace needs! Leila is a force of nature as usual and gives a real pop of familial comic relief. Loved it!

I found this book to be enjoyable. The author does a very good job with her descriptions so you can read this as a standalone, but you might want to read the first two in series to make it that more enjoyable. Jace Stevens is determined to keep running the business Brothers in Arms with his two other partners. It doesn’t help that a murdering mad man is out to ruin them. When in walks Special Agent Felicity Belasko FBI, at first she’s by the book than she starts working with Jace and scenes start to really heat up. I like that we get to see the other characters from the series in this book.
This book has a great ending. The author gave us a few intense situations, suspenseful twists (some predictable), humorous banter between the brothers, and a sizzling hot tub moment. The ending gave me conflicting emotions, I was sad but yet happy. All in all, a very good read!

Good main characters with like the book blurb says a "madman" as their arch enemy. He's not just a madman but he's crazy smart. Paranoid, sneaky with some unexpected funds and control over some powerful people. And if that's not enough, he also has some military training and the patience to plan and carry out his evil
Jace and Felicity are tough "guys" in their own areas of expertise but there is also the family like atmosphere that Jace has with his fellow Brothers-in-Arms and their girlfriends. Felicity finds it easy to get drawn into that group; after awhile.

I liked this story but I gave it a bit lower rating because it seemed just be missing something at times.
Heads up there will be some rough language; we are talking former Seals here and there will be some sex too. Just in case you wanted to know.
There are some twists and turns along with some predictable parts as well.
But hang on because there is a "slamming" good ending to the book.
I always look for an Epilogue in a book and this one had a satisfying one.

Jace and Felicity.
Jace is a good guy. He had some troubles growing up, but had some strong, positive ideals instilled in him from a young age.
Felicity had a lot of guilt over a past event. She carried that guilt with her even as an adult.
This book is very short (I read it in just a few hours) so there is not a whole lot of room to establish backgrounds or progress a relationship slowly. As a result, things between the H/h move very quickly. They're both likable and seem matched. This was a quick, entertaining read.

The conclusion for Brothers in arms. The reader finds Jace with his partners working to find the ones responsible for Seals deaths and sabotage of their business. The FBI sends in Felicity as their agent to investigate and find the culprits while finding a new future.
Good series that keeps the reader's attention and pages turning.

EBook from Netgalley and publishers with thanks.

This is the story of Jace and Felicity. In this final installment of Brothers in Arms security Jace is now mainly running the business and Felicity, an FBI agent is keeping watch on Jace. The Brothers in Arms have been implicated in the recent death of former SEALS and are trying to deal with the bad press the business is getting. Jace and the other guys are trying to catch the murderer once and for all.the attraction between Felicity and Jace is hot and intense. Both are intent on finding and capturing the murderer. Felicity is a no nonsense type of girl and if you have read the previous books in this series you know that Jace is funny and carefree. She allows him to help out with the investigation. We get to see the other characters in this book as well, as they help Jace and Felicity catch the killer. Filled with action, suspense and humor this was a good read.

I voluntarily read this advanced readers copy of this book. Leslie North uses strong characters and great story lines. You will love reading about Jace and Felicity. Jace is part owner and trainer at Brothers In Arms. He is going to help the FBI agent try and figure out who is trying to ruin their business and who is behind the local Navy Seal suicides going on. Will Jace and Felicity be able to keep their hand to themselves till the investigation is done?

This is a voluntary review of an advanced copy.

I have not read the previous books in this series but it was easy enough to read this book and still understand the background. Jace and his fellow owners of Brothers in Arms were seeing many suicides of their fellow Seals. Felicity was an FBI agent who was investigating the supposed suicides as she believed that they really were murders.

Due to budget cuts, Felicity and her partner were called back to D.C. and her partner returned but she took vacation time to continue the search. Since she no longer had a partner, she allowed Jace to help her in her investigation. Good thing that Geneva has such great contacts, as she gave Felicity a huge break in the case.

This book was hard to put down as it not only had romance but intrigue and a bit of a mystery. The final showdown between the murder and Felicity was dramatic as Jace was not able to help her right away. The full explanation for the murders were given at this time and helped wrap up the murders.

The ending was sad yet happy for Felicity as she had to leave her job but she also was ready to stay with Jace even if she hadn't been injured. This was a great cast of characters and they made the book very engaging. I loved all the ideas that they had for Felicity and the business! I enjoyed reading this book so much that I am going to have to start at the first book and read it and go through the series in order!

I loved the book I loved the romance between Jace and Felicity. The chemistry between two was well written . Infact I would say that all the characters were very well written although I did not read the first book in this series. The murder mystery was well written and concluded.
