Product Description Another moving, emotional tale in the Navy Series from New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber. Erin MacNamera had one hard and fast rule: never, never, never fall for a navy man. But, from the heart-stopping moment her eyes met Lieutenant Brandon Davis's across a crowded lounge, Erin knew life would never be the same. Sexy, tender and strong, Brandon was all she'd ever dreamed of in a man, but he was also navy -- and as a navy brat from way back, she knew better than to give her heart to a seafaring man. When an old friend asked Brand to look up his eldest daughter, he never dreamed Erin would turn out to be a stubborn beauty who resisted him at every turn. Couldn't she see that they were meant for each other? When Brand was called to duty, it gave him the perfect opportunity to teach his sweet Irish rose a thing or two about navy men -- and love . . .

Navy Brat May 24, 2008 Deborah A. De Santis (Reno, NV) Another Great Book and Great Series. My only wish that I can get a total order of all of her books written so I may read them in order. I have liked every one of her books I have read.
Repetitive March 31, 2005 Annie Mae (Northern New Jersey) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I liked this book even though it tended to be very repetitive. The dialogue between the two main characters seemed to go on and on and on. Also, after hearing Erin complain throughout the entire book about the fact that Brandon was "navy", I was waiting for a great ending. I felt as though the author got tired of the book herself and just ended it too abruptly. All in all, I did enjoy the book simply because it was light and airy and ended on a happy note.
Navy Brat Should be Titled Navy Bad January 7, 2004 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This series of books was originally published in the early 90's and probably should have been left alone after that initial publication. From the first, the outcome of this book was predictable. But, what could have been an interesting change-of-heart story; turned into a series of whining sessions. The lead female doesn't deserve her male counterpart. Her character continuously sings the sorry tune of self pity. She was truly obnoxious. By the end of the book, I wanted the Lieutenant to marry ANYBODY else. This book gets two stars for the subplots and the the perfect Lieutenant. I was disappointed with this book. Debbie Maccomber usually delivers better stories.
Tedious April 6, 2004 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I generally enjoy any kind of romance with a military theme and the cover of this book quickly caught my eye. It's unfortunate, because I endured 297 pages of boredom in order to get to the anti-climatic finish.The "heroine" of the tale, Erin MacNamera is a bland character with very few redeeming qualities. Forced to grow up as a navy brat, she refuses to engage in a relationship with a wonderful man simply because he is in the military. She is petty, spiteful, and rude in her quest to drive him away. My biggest problem with the story is the fact that the author conveys an attitude that growing up as a military brat is a prison sentence. She fails to mention the plethora of benefits there are to being a military dependent. Most children of military tend to be outgoing, culturally sensitive, broadly educated and adventurous. This is the first book I've read by this author and it will also be the last.
Navy Brat - Apt Description January 23, 2004 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The title is apt. The lead character is, in fact, an undeserving brat who meets a wonderful lieutenant jg. However, she doesn't want a relationship with the guy because he's in the military and she cherishes the stability of not having to move as his tours of duty change. She behaves miserably towards him. One would only hope that the lieutenant would meet someone better. The book is a frustrating and shallow read, in part, because the lead character generates absolutely no sympathy. Try again Ms. Macomber. You can do better.
