This was an interesting read. It was pretty casual and a quick read.
Recommended for some light reading.

A fun, sexy, very-modern romance by Caro! Loved the humor and the sexy interactions of Thane and Chloe are fun to read.

I love a good Harlequin romance and this book did not disappoint. I enjoyed Chloe and Thane’s book and just loved the banter between these two it had me laughing out loud at times this was a wonderful sweet quick romance and I would recommend it to all romance lovers it had a good plot and great characters i really enjoyed it

A story of two people e-mailing back and forth similar to the got mail and the older movie with notes shop around the corner. Thane Carter is a First Lieutenant assigned to Fort Hood Military Police and is a Senior Platoon leader. He is one of three right now there should be four. Just graduating from West Point Chloe Michaels is assigned to Foot Hood also. Not knowing that they are talking to each other over the internet sometimes about the other one ads to the story. When a chance encounter between happens before she is to report for duty. There is a connection made but she is suddenly surprised by his abrupt departure and his sudden coldness in attitude towards her. Going with the flow, it is not until she reports to duty that she understands because they are working together. She is upset now because he could have at least told her. It continues to become more uncomfortable until the two online people agree to meet and like the other movies he realizes that she is the person he has been writing too. Now he must work on fixing the problem and what he does is good. The rest of the story is good leading up to the end. I liked the characters especially the two first sergeants in the story. Overall a good book.

Great book! I finished reading it very quickly because I just couldn't put it down!

The Lieutenants' Online Love is a You’ve Got Mail type story with a military bend to it. Caro Carson’s take on this is an entertaining read; not too deep but not boring either. Diversion from reality if that is what your life needs at the moment. This is the type of story that helps you leave that all behind.

Two hardworking diligent Lieutenants who might never have hit it off without this super-duper little app. The plot is easy flowing from one event to another with just enough military lingo to keep it real and interesting. You are counting on a HEA for Lieutenant Thane Carter and Lieutenant Chloe Michaels. This book delivers with plenty of banter between the two along the way.

The Lieutenants’ Online Love presents an interesting dilemma for Chloe and Thane – what happens when the co-worker you cannot seem to get along with ends up being the very same person who is a totally different person in the online relationship you wish could turn into a real life forever love? Add to that problem both are military police with very rigid rules about dating – then you’ve got an interesting story and an enemies to lovers who already are falling in love online… yeah, it’s complicated.

I enjoyed Chloe and Thane’s romance. It’s got witty banter, the ability to show your true self while holding back some things that will make life and career incredibly complicated. Watching this couple work through their online love and real life careers made for an interesting, at times, laugh out loud enjoyable experience. I rarely make comments about the story I’m given to read whether I’ve purchased it or receive it through NetGalley it’s the author’s story to tell, not mine. I will simply say that there were times when the military slang and terminologies were not common to me and because of that I feel I might not have given the true importance to some parts of this story that they deserved. That’s not a mean-spirited criticism, but a wishful observation.

The Lieutenant’s Online Love releases in Mass Market Paperback (on Amazon) on April 17, 2018 – (again on Amazon) it is part of the Harlequin Special Edition Box Set for Kindle readers on May 1, 2018. So just because it’s not available for your e-reader today, look for it in a couple weeks.

I would recommend this story to any Contemporary Romance or Military Romance reader who enjoys lively banter, hidden identity, enemies to lovers romance and a very good love story.

*I received an e-ARC of this novel from the publisher via NetGalley. That does not change what I think of this story. It is my choice to leave a review giving my personal opinion about this book.*

While Chloe has finished West Point, MP school, and travels to her new post, her friendship with an on line friend has kept her going. Since Chloe knows nothing about him, she feels open to discuss everything. Chloe doesn't realize that soon he might be part of her life. I received a free copy of this book from the publisher through Net Gallery. This was a fun read that I enjoyed very much. I enjoyed getting a glimpse of a MP's life. The relationship between Chloe and Thane had its ups and downs. This was a sweet clean romance. I recommend this light read.

Thane Carter has been in an anonymous online relationship for months with Ballerina Baby. Little does he know that the new Lieutenant assigned to his MP unit is none other than Baby! This realization brings about huge problems that stop any thoughts of a closer relationship between the two. This story made me think about a military version of the popular movie, You’re Got Mail! The author does give an insight into the life of an MP, officers and military dating rules. Nice story with a predictable ending.

The Lieutenants' Online Love by Caro Carson is available from Harlequin, Special Edition. An egalley of this book was made available by the publisher in exchange for a honest review.

The Lieutenants’ Online Love was a fun read. I enjoyed both Thane and Chloe and was rooting for them to be able to be together throughout the whole story. I couldn’t but the story down until I finished it because the author kept me in suspense. I wondered how they would solve not only their personal differences but the professional aspect as well. This story involved a hero & heroine who are both active duty in the Army, but the author was careful to explain the military lingo to the reader.

This story was different from her cowboy & Texas rescue stories but no less enjoyable.

I received a copy from NetGalley for an honest review.

This is a military story and its HEAVY military. You must like learning about the army to like this story. At times I stopped paying attention because it was way too army for me. It is also a very tame story. Chloe and Than never get together until the last few pages of the story. Their romance is forbidden and VERY forbidden I mean court martial forbidden so they never cross the lines.

I did not love it but it was interesting and I enjoyed the writing and characters.

What a great romance. I loved the plot, characters and setting. The author is new to me and I anticipate reading more of her books. If you enjoy a good romance I recommend this book.

This is my fist Caro Carson book in a while. I enjoyed the witty banter between Drummer and Ballerina aka Thane and Chloe. I thoroughly liked the way they appeared to have that love hate relationship. they loved each other's online persona but hated each other's real life persona. All the chemistry does mysterious things when you refuse to acknowledge it. I enjoyed the insight of military walks of life as well.

First Lieutenant Thane Carter is in a serious online relationship with someone that he only knows as Ballerina Bun. She knows him as Drummer. They have cultivated a wonderful six-month relationship where their feelings are shooting past the friend zone. When they both encourage each other to make a real-life friend, Thane spots Chloe Michaels at a pool party and meets the woman of his dreams.

A most unfortunate thing happens. In short order, Thane realizes that she is his new co-worker, where there is a no fraternization policy amongst officers. Without any explanation, he shatters any illusion that they could develop anything beyond their all-too-brief encounter at the pool party. Before long, Thane realizes that Chloe is his “Ballerina Bun”, but he feels that he’s been bamboozled.

This is a quick, light read with a sad twinge as I couldn’t help but root for this couple to find a way to be together. I'm glad to say that this romance did not disappoint.

If you are craving a clean romantic book that lets you believe that love is more about romance, friendship and respect than this book is for you. I loved that the female was not only independent but a strong woman looking for a relationship, she was very realistic. The male character was strong and even though he made some big mistakes his heart was in the right place, he wanted to respect and treat her kindly.

As an heavy romance reader I found this book to be a breathe of fresh air. I need a book without a lot of sex and more relationship.

I received this book from NetGalley in exchange with an honest review. First I must say thank you for Harlequin that I got this book to read. I would hope that this will be translate in Finnish later.

I have read many books like this, so it was OK to read. Not big surprisies but also not with big disappointment. Maybe some parts were too rushed and maybe there was used many clichés but it doesn't matters. To me it was easy to understand what some words with military slang means but people who doesn't have life world like this, it might be harder thing to understand meanings.

The characters were nice without big surprise. When you have read many books like this, it can be even boring, but to me it was good time to relax and enjoy the book. Not the biggest book in the world but good when you need something easy to read. The plot was quite awesome but it needs something which doesn't make it too similar than everything else with military theme. But after this book, I understand why it is so popular and why many people will sometimes read books by Harlequin or like in Finland, by HarperCollins Nordic if even this book will be translate some day.

This was basically "YOU GOT MAIL" in a military setting. Thane Carter and Chloe Michaels have been friends for six months now....Only they don't know it. They know each other only as Different Drummer and Ballerina Baby. Then...they happen to meet in real life, not knowing the other is the person they most confide in online....and they can't stand each other.

One thing I didn't like so much was all the military terms with little to no explanation to what they even mean. I found myself having to guess and the plot I felt was somewhat overused. And the ending felt rushed and unrealistic. When a guy deceives a girl and she finds out about it, I highly doubt any real life couple is kissing within five minutes.

I recommend this book for ages 13+ for slight swearing.

I received an arc from Netgalley. While I loved the storyline of this book I was kind of disappointed as the book didn’t necessarily flow very easy. It was hard to pick out what was being typed between the two main characters vs what was verbal dialogue or details. Maybe if the typed dialogue from the app was in bold it would have been easier to read and it would have flowed more nicely. Again I enjoyed the storyline just a little hard to read.

The Lieutenants' Online Love is You've Got Mail in a military setting.

There was enough background information about the Army and Military Police in particular that I didn't feel lost, but not so much that it bogged down the plot.

The banter between Thane and Chloe is fun, but they struggle to get along after a misunderstanding. Especially because they don't realize that they have also become good friends via an app.

I really liked the dual narration from Thane and Chloe. I think getting to see the story from both their perspectives made it more fun to read. Especially as their online personas grow closer.

I would recommend this book, and I look forward to trying more by the author!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
