Being a Navy SEAL is more than a career to Alan “Frisco” Francisco—it is his whole world. So when a bullet wound threatens his future in the Navy, he is determined to achieve a full recovery…all on his own. But his lovely neighbor, Mia Summerton, has other plans for him. She can’t mend his wounded body, but can she heal his heart?

A big tough but disabled Navy Seal gets the gentle help he doesnt know he needs from his lovely school teacher neighbor. I liked the humanism of this story, good read

I liked this one, it was sweet

I enjoyed this short contemporary romance. I liked how the hero significantly evolved throughout the story. I liked how the romance developed. And the five year old nice was simply adorable!! I did feel there were holes in the story. What happened with the sister? Did the niece stay with him forever?

Narration: Lauren Fortgagng either has a very nasally voice or she was congested while she narrated this book. And that was kind of annoying. I also felt like she read too slow at times which made this book feel too long.

For me this book was ok. Would not buy it for a credit but if you find it on sale Then it's worth it.

It was just ok for me..

Frisco's broken in every way but Mia and Tash get him to the other side. I just wish the narrator hadn't been changed from the first two books.

I was actually surprised how moving this story in the series was compared to the first two books. I really liked it and actually brought a tear to my eye in the end. Missed the narrator from the first two books, but this one was pretty good as well. I just like when the voices of the same characters stay the same. But this narrator did a good job.

Tear Jerker - it was wonderful!

There is so much to this book. It tells the story of Frisco going from anger and brokenness to healing, and his love story with Mia. There is some excitement along the way. The narration is excellent. Very entertaining book!!

Very enjoyable!

Update 8/9/19: I read this a few years ago, but when the series showed up in Audible Escape I decided to give the audiobook a try. It's so hard to rate these older Suzanne Brockmann works. Compared to the level of writing in her Troubleshooters series as well as the production/narration quality of those audiobooks, it leaves many of these Tall Dark & Dangerous books feeling a slightly bereft. This book is also not one of my favorites of the series. Still clocks in at 3 stars.

It's a fun story, but lacking a lot of the action present in most of Brockmann's SEAL books (of either series). It's definitely fairly insta-love as the whole book takes place over just a few days.

Frisco has been recovering/rehabbing a knee injury for the last 5 years. He's just received word that despite numerous surgeries and years of PT ~ things are as good as they're going to get. Which means he will likely spend the rest of his life using a cane to walk. Also thrown at him is that his sister needs to go to rehab and he will now be the guardian of his 4 year-old niece, Tasha.

Mia is a high school teacher and Frisco's next door neighbor. She's drawn to help grumpy Frisco learn how to be the parent of a pre-schooler as well as encourage him that his life isn't over.

We also meet Thomas King, one of Mia's students who bonds with Tasha and simultaneously looks up to Frisco as a SEAL while wary of Frisco's parenting.

There is some action as Tasha's mom's ex causes havoc and a rescue takes place, but it's quite minimal in relation to the romantic aspect of the story.

I had trouble with the narrator as she didn't have a strong "male" voice. It also felt more like she was reading me the book than performing it. Joe Cat's distinct accent is also noticeably absent. I think she might be a better fit for when a book is only from the female POV. It's a decent listen as part of Audible Escape, but I'll read it in the future.

More romance than suspense

The story was actually enjoyable and I stayed interested throughout; however, there was entirely too much internal dialog. A question is asked, then 20 seconds to 2 minutes of internal dialog.... Argh! I know lots of people love it but it wears me out. I will read the next book in the series and hopefully it will contain a bit less.

Good but way too much inner dialog!

Where does Frisco's Kid rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Toward the top. It was a way better listen than some out there, but not the absolute best.

What did you like best about this story?

His bond with his neice. I LOVE how he adapted to her. It wasn't easy, but he did it and he came out better for doing it!

Which scene was your favorite?

In the cabin when Tash couldn't sleep because it was too quiet and Frisco brought Mia into her bedroom and made them both listen to the sounds of nature. I also LOVED when they were shopping for Tasha's furniture and they sat on the pink princess couch that she wanted SO badly. Which made me laugh very hard at the scene when all his team members arrive at his place later in the book after his place got trashed!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Again, probably the part in the cabin. It just reminded me of comfort and contentment.

Any additional comments?

I really enjoyed the book. The narrator was good. The story was good. The characters had some depth.

Decent listen.

still a great series, Frisco is a wounded vet, Mia is a teacher and neighbor. Frisco gets his sister's Kid, needs help, won't accept help. Mia has a heart of gold, etc etc etc...

probably my least favorite of this series

I'd heard about Frisco in several of the Alpha Squad Seal's books, but his story is great! Take a tough SEAL who can take down any enemy, who also overcame an alcoholic father and difficult childhood and then take it all away from him leaving him feeling useless and desperate. He can barely walk, his sister's addictions have landed her in a jail or rehab situation and left him with her small daughter and a criminal that wants the money back that his sister took from him and call in the SEAL team. Add to that a beautiful neighbor that would be glad to help him, but his manly pride is pricked that he can't carry his own groceries up the stairs. Frisco finally figures out that being a man doesn't come from taking out terrorists, but from accepting what life deals you and making it work -that's what a true SEAL does. Action, love and recovery and a SEAL with a very PINK couch. Another great Brockman story!

Great story -One of Alpha Squad's best!!!
