Book Review: A SEAL Never Quits by Holly Castillo

Straight from the headlines, Holly Castillo crafts an action-packed story about a team of Navy SEALs in an undercover operation in a ranch in south Texas. The premise is great, and the characters are complex but a team of an elite military force in a black ops in U.S. soil is taking a big leap for artistic license.

That said and after suspending your disbelief, “A SEAL Never Quits” is a total roller coaster ride from beginning to end with Navy Lieutenant Amador “Stryker” Salas and local veterinarian Anya Gutierrez at center stage.

With the new ranch owner as his cover (which by the way, Stryker was actually raised in a ranch and knew his way around cows and horses), meeting the local vet Dr. Anya Gutierrez was a given. What was bit a given was the instant attraction between them.

With that incendiary heat, it was only a matter of time before they went horizontal. And they did, which to Stryker’s point of view was a mistake because he was in the middle of a mission. Any misstep could mean life or death for him and his teammates. It could also put Anya in danger. And it did!

Now, with Anya at the crosshairs and Stryker and his team also at a big disadvantage, they have to save Anya without blowing their cover.

A fast read, “A SEAL Never Quits” will keep you at the edge of your seats. Rated M for Mature due to violence and some sex scenes.
