Jacqueline J's Reviews > Into the Night

Another one of my favorites. I know it seems like I always say that.
I like how clueless Mike Muldoon is about women since he is so handsome that he never has to work at it. He is however very good at being a SEAL. Joan Da Costa is a pretty good character but the way that their age difference bothers her, bothers me. There just isn't that great a difference in their ages and I know from my own personal situation,(hubby is 7 years younger) that this small age difference is virtually unnoticable once you're into your late 20s early 30s. The bigger problem is that they live so far apart. It is difficult for a career woman to give up her situation to follow a man around.

I did enjoy this WWII story about the most of any of the WWII stories. I would have loved to read an entire novel about it. But I would prefer that it not be in this novel.

I was astounded how well I liked the Mary Lou story. Brockmann can really create a sympathetic character from someone you swore you would never like. Some reviewers have said that they didn't like her and couldn't forgive her for trapping Sam into marriage. But I think that people make mistakes and change and grow and I'm happy to accept that in a novel also.

That's one of the things that is so compelling about this series.
