Summary: Enjoyable, but not her best.
Comment: I enjoy every Dee Henderson book I've read. True Valor was actually my first, and it's probably a good thing I started with this one. At the time I found it exciting and romantic and loved it. I've since read her entire O'Malley Series, and am working on True Honor after reading True Devotion and then True Valor a second time. I do enjoy this book and the characters, but now I feel that they are incomplete. The romance between Grace and Bruce is OK, but my least favorite of her books. Now I know the depth of emotion Ms. Henderson is capable of conveying in her writing. This book falls short of the high bar she has set with previous novels.
That being said, this remains an above par action novel, especially for the military-minded. Her description of Gracie's flights and Bruce's rescues were very lively and exciting. And I found their letters back and forth to be more interesting than their in-person encounters (except maybe for the short descritions of their two post-deployment reunions, I enjoyed those parts. But that could be because I'm a military spouse and understand how emotional they can be.)
My conclusion is that this is an essential read for Henderson fans, if only to make us appreciate the other books even more. For people who have never read a Dee Henderson novel, this is a good book to start with...it's still excellent writing.

Summary: What a great author (not to mention a great book)
Comment: I've said it before, and I'll say it again--Dee Henderson is amazing! She makes Christian fiction so exciting to read. When I'm looking for a book that has adventure, romance, plot twists, and spiritual depth, I look no further than a Dee Henderson book. True Valor was DEFINITELY not an exception to this rule. Grace Yates, a Navy fighter pilot, and Bruce Stanton, an Airforce Pararescueman, were fantastic characters and their story was so sweet. They are both on tours of duty, so they write letters back and forth about God, the military, and their growing devotion to one another. When Gracie is injured, Bruce has to go into a war-stricken zone to get her out alive. The romance aspect of the story was great, but there's plenty of action for those not-so-mushy types. And the spiritual aspect just hit me right square in the gut. The author has a deep relationship with God and it shows. I loved this book, and I can't wait for the next one!

Summary: OK, but not her best
Comment: This is my second Dee Henderson book. My first was #1 in this series and it was awesome! I was a bit disappointed with this book. My husband serves active duty in the US Navy and I had a hard time with the context of all the military mumbo bumbo.
It took me a long time to get into the book. It did get better starting around page 100. I usually don't continue a book unless it grabs my attention by the 2nd chapter, but I wanted to finish it so I could move on to #3 which I understand is much better. I'm excited for #4--True Courage to be released!
