Whoa...this us the first book by Rachel Robinson I've read and it won't be my last. This book was a great mix of heart, angst, love and the unexpected.
Maeve is the surviving widow to a Navy SEAL. She moved to Colorado for a new start. She's finally settled into her new life when one little six year old patient and his father walks into her office. Lincoln Wilds is a single father who's sole focus is to raise his son and do his job as a Navy SEAL. He's taken by surprised by his feelings for Maeve. She was the Flash Bang thrown into his life when he wasn't expecting it.
These two arrive in this relationship broke and unsure. But slowly, they learn to open up and love one another. I liked how they became each other's strength. They would need that strength and love to get through the biggest challenge of all.
This was a solid read. If it weren't for work and family life, I would have devoured this book in one sitting.
I'm looking forward to reading the second book.

✨ What can I tell you about this book?
When I was trying to find words to describe what this book made me feel, Ale, of my closest friends told me "it's an exciting book that makes you feel a lot of things, you're going to be surprised by all the plot twists and that end is...", and I think it's pretty accurate.
This book is about Maeve, whose fiancé (Navy SEAL) was killed years ago, and Lincoln, a single parent Navy SEAL. You can say it's second chance romance and... I just don't know how to describe it.
I was shocked when everything started to happen as you can see in my "status update" here in Goodreads. The only thing I wrote was "I'm shocked", "Mom, I'm scared". Don't get me wrong, it's nothing out of the ordinary but some reason I wasn't expecting those things.

That moment when you realize that you are reading a duet, that painful moment you encounter a cliffhanger you weren't expecting. Kind of like that dream we've all had of falling, and then just as we hit the ground, we wake up. Yeah, that's how I felt tonight finishing this book. Honest, I thought it was a series---no biggie though, I'm invested now, and I need to know what happens.
Maeve is a very cool and capable Physical Therapist who has tragedy in her past. She meets Lincoln and his son Turner, and despite her walls, she falls for the two of them. There is an unexpected thread that handily morphs this just romance into romantic suspense. Hence our cliffhanger. And it is a doozy of a cliffhanger. Flash Bang is a steamy read with good guys, mystery, wonderful setting, cute kid, adorable dog, and really likable characters. Read it and get ready for the flashbang ending!

This was a good intro to Maeve and Lincoln's story. It started a little slow but once the story picks up, it gets really exciting, then it ends on a cliffhanger. I can't wait for the conclusion to their story!
Maeve and Lincoln have had painful pasts. But there is an instant connection between them. There is so much that happens in this story, a lot of drama and twists and turns. Their story was emotional, heartbreaking and all-consuming.
