SYNOPSIS:

Buttoned-up Corporal Kaitlyn Amador is dangerous on every level. As a human, she poses a threat to Marine Captain Jax Raymond’s special Force Recon unit. Though the team has a reputation among the other recon units, only their commanding officer knows their secret. As a woman, the danger posed is entirely different. Jax can survive the temptation for only so long before his wolf takes over and pursues what it wants. Military intelligence specialist Corporal Kaitlyn Amador is the first woman in the Marines to be assigned to a recon team. And everyone’s watching her. Her mission? Not only prove herself worthy of her place in the group, but uncover the mystery of why Bravo Team is so successful. A mission that gets more difficult every time she’s near Jax…

My Review:

When Danger Bites is the first book I have read by Heather Long.  It has been awhile since I have read a book with a strong female character, especially one as strong as Kaitlyn (Kat) Amador.  I liked that Kat was strong and gave everything Jax dished out, right back to him.  I felt he had really met his match with her.  I think I liked Jax's wolf more than I actually liked him.  The wolf cared for Kat, but he as a human, seemed to want to push her down.

I will say that if you aren't a fan of third person POV, this is a bit of a difficult read.  Long is very detail oriented, which I love.  However, written in the third person and shifting between Jax as a human, Jax as  wolf, and Kat, it would get a bit confusing at times.  There is a lot of military terminology used, so be ready if you aren't familiar with that.  Overall, I give When Danger Bites 4-stars.  I wanted to love it, but I got stuck on really like.  It was the jumping between the characters that kept me having to reread certain parts to be sure I knew what was happening.  

My review is based on the following scale:

1 star: didn't like it

2 star: it was okay

3 star: liked it

4 star: really liked it

5 star: it was awesome
