Review
“At last! Sam and Alyssa’s book! Gone Too Far is Suzanne Brockmann’s best book to date. There’s everything anyone could want: action, danger, suspense, passion, and tears. This is one I’ll read again.” –LINDA HOWARD
“Sizzling with military intrigue and sexual tension, with characters so vivid they leap right off the page, Gone Too Far is a bold, brassy read with a momentum that just doesn’t quit." –TESS GERRITSEN
“Suzanne Brockmann always delivers kick-ass heroes, unforgettable heroines and nail-biting tales of suspense.” –LISA GARDNER
ROGER "SAM" STARRETT'S CELL PHONE VIBRATED, BUT HE was wedged into the rental car so tightly that there was no way he could get the damn thing out of the front pot of his jeans. Read the first page

This is the first Suzanne Brockman and I loved it. Its action packed Sam is hot (sizziling) I hope the other Seal books are as exciting. If yes i am really going to enjoy myself. I want to read them all(in order this time)

Sam and Alyssa are One of the Best Romantic couples,
By Vixenne Victorienne "Kymberlyn Reed" (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gone Too Far (Mass Market Paperback)
It seems that those who've given 'Gone Too Far' less than the stellar reviews that it truly deserves simply don't get it. It's like they like things wrapped up in one nice and neat package, and unfortunately for these readers, 'Gone Too Far' is not the easy beach read that many expected. It's an emotional rollercoaster ride into the minds and hearts of two people with a lot of preconceived notions and personal baggage. In many romances, the alpha male and the beta female stay in their tidy little box and never experience any emotional growth whatsoever. That formula has long since outlived its usefulness and personally, I've way outgrown such trite plots and characterizations. I say, challenge me and make me feel something different. Thankfully, Ms. Brockmann has written a gritty and wonderfully realistic romantic-suspense novel with two of the most multi-dimensional characters ever to grace the pages of any book. Sam Starett is both maddening and wonderful. He's got a true heart of gold in his rough and tumble exterior. Sometimes you want to kiss him and other times, you want to kick him. And knowing a little more of his backstory (from The Defiant Hero) makes him even more sympathetic. What can I say about my girl Alyssa Locke? Ms. Brockmann wrote a character I fully identify with, being a black woman in a predominantly male field. I totally understand how Alyssa feels--that she has to be better, smarter and tougher than the guys in order to be seen as competent. Sam and Alyssa's sparring matches are one of the major highlights of this book. Oh yes, they're going to get together, but it's not going to be easy--but it will be worth it. Sam and Alyssa have got to be one of the best (as well as one of the sexiest)in romantic fiction. I consider them like 'old friends' and can't wait to see if they appear in more adventures. A small yet cynical part of me thinks that those who didn't like 'Gone Too Far' haven't quite left the dark ages when it comes to a book that deals honestly and refreshingly with interracial relationships. In this day and age, we're supposed to be a lot more enlightened--and I've always believed love to be colourblind. I'm glad to see that Suzanne Brockmann feels the same way.

Finally I finished it!!,
By bookworm (Wenatchee, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gone Too Far (Mass Market Paperback)
I have to congratulate the rest of the reviewers that have ploughed their way through this entire series. I read one before this "Defiant Hero" and that's enough for me, thank you. It is hard to believe a writer could drag out a story that takes place in 1 week folks, check the dates, but the way she did this was to sandwich in all the childhood trauma of Roger/Sam and the letter writing between Dot and Walt. She not only filled us in on all the background but kept beating us over the head with it. And talk about sexual hangups these characters had them all. At least any more in this series will have a change of pace you can hope since there are some career changes taking place, and maybe everyone will get lucky and Max will go off to Kenya and do some real adjusting.
