This was the first book I've read by this author. Although I did enjoy the book it wouldn't be one I'd reread.

Wonderful book, if you enjoyed this one Suzanne Brockmann has many more just like this for your enjoyment. Make sure you read them in the right order. It takes away from the plot if you do not....

There are three main reasons to buy this book: 1) Suzanne Brockmann wrote it, so you know it's going to be good; 2) it IS a great story, and 3) both Ms. Brockmann and MIRA are very up-front about this book being a reissue of one of her previous releases.

Originally published in December 1998 as IT CAME UPON A MIDNIGHT CLEAR, the story has lost none of it's originality, sensuality, or action/adventure.

The story revolves around William "Crash" Hawken, a member of SEAL Team Twelve who gets framed for the murder of his Admiral boss and mentor, Jake Robinson. With his SEAL Team, superiors, and once friends convinced that he set the Admiral up for assassination, Crash has no one to turn to. Thankfully, someone comes to HIM.

Nell Burns spent a lot of time with Crash the previous year, at the home of Admiral Robinson and his live-in lover, Daisy Owens. The couple had been together for over twenty-years, and although they'd never had children of their own, they considered Crash to be their son. When Daisy is diagnosed with a deadly brain tumor, both Nell, her personal assistant, and Crash, her nephew, decided to make her last days as wonderful as possible.

That last year, Nell and Crash were lovers--for one night. But neither has ever forgotten the other, and now that Crash is literally fighting for his freedom, reputation, and very life, the two are on the run to find the real murderer of Admiral Robinson.

You won't go wrong with this book, or any other in Suzanne Brockmann's SEAL series.

One of the earlier of Brockman's series on the SEALS. This book was issued as "It Came upon a Midnight Clear" in 1998.
This book was then revised and re-issued in 2005 as "Hawkin's Heart" If you haven't read this series-START. One of my very favorite series.
