That it’s a ongoing condition he’s actively dealing with is a fact that’s mentioned well into the next novel. That he’s not “automatically “ healed is a welcome element here. It’s something we have a window into from his perspective. In this case, it’s a character dealing with the intense aftermath of a mission gone traumatically wrong, casualties, PTSD, and memory loss. It will also allow Finley’s plot to deepen into those areas that add depth and dimension to a storyline. That’s the one which will reunite Iris and Saint, after years apart. This is framed out concisely and as a story thread that will be used to grow their relationship.Īnother is the type of work the Mike Bravo Ops Security teams do and how it brings Iris and Brock “Saint” Harlow back together.īrock “Saint” Harlow is the opposite of Iris. DADT, family expectations, personal history, and each man’s stance on being queer. It’s often so hard to buy into a instant love story but a romance that’s got a firm foundation of a history between the main characters? Yes, please.Īnd this one aspect is one that has an air of believability about it because of the various issues that stood between them.

I enjoyed that aspect of their relationship and romance.

So the attraction that arises as well as feelings is counted for by their past. The romance is between two men who already have history. The company and people have appeared in another of Finley’s series but this is the first time I’ve read about them. It’s a name that’s stuck even at his new job at Mike Bravo Ops, a security firm made up of ex military who also happen to be LGBTGIA.

Iris, real name Isaac Griffin, but his irrepressible, often over the top personality in the Army got him the nickname “Iris-I require intense supervision”. Eden Finley delivers such a wonderfully entertaining story in Iris, a Mike Bravo Ops story! Just what I needed.
