Breaking the Rules (Troubleshooters #16)

Breaking the Rules by Suzanne Brockmann is the sixteenth book in her Troubleshooters series.

Izzy Zanella and Dan Gillman are part of SEAL Team Sixteen. They have never been good friends and since Izzy married Danny's sister, they have been even worse friends.

Sure they got married to make sure that Eden's baby would have a home and insurance, but that was not the only reason. But then Eden miscarried and she went to Germany to stay with a friend to recover. Now it has been months since Izzy and Eden have spoken.

When Izzy finds out that Eden is back in Las Vegas trying to get custody of her little brother, he flies there to see that she is alright. But the custody battle is not straight forward and other factors make it safer to have a SEAL to help out.

Brockmann's characters are great. Though each book in the series focuses a different person, they group of SEALs and Troubleshooters overlap and it is great to read about a familiar character from the background of a previous book. Her suspense is knuckle-bitingly good, her romance is steamy, and overall she is one of my favorite writers. She is also one of the few mainstream romance genre authors who includes and speaks up for gay characters in her books.
