Reviews

I read this series in a boxed set #1, which is books 1-7. 6 novellas and one book. I have mixed feelings about this series so I will separate my personal feelings from the actual review. These are super steamy light reads. Very little character development, insta love/lust, not much of a plot. The heroes are all Seals but no seal/military action in the stories. The most action in these books is between the sheets. The sex scenes are written well and if you are just after erotica, you might like these books. MMF in almost every couple.
Personally, I won’t be reading the rest of the series. I like my heroes more alpha instead of just man whores. Alphas don’t share their women and there is too much MMF action. Too casual for my taste. One Seal went to a dinner at the F leads parent’s house. The father made him feel less than and not worthy of his rich daughter. Instead of being an Alpha male, he hung his head an pouted! WTH! Sorry if you can make it through Seal training, he should have been arrogant and stood up for hisself. That is my biggest issue with these books. For Seals, I found the men lovable but weak.

The books were all… the same? The plots were strikingly similar.

Some of the jokes were very outdated, joking about who’s the most likely to get violated in prison, one of the navy seals having sex for the first time at 12… not cool. Guy on guy action though? Impressed with addressing heteronormativity head on.

I really only like ensemble boys-club cast when it has Ted Lasso energy though.

I do LOVE explicit consent and focus on women’s pleasure though - Elle Kennedy strikes again at being the bomb at this.

I mean, I guess I needed a cleanse after House of Sky and Breath. But I mourn the brain cells I had before reading these books…

I always feel terrible not leaving a glowing review, as I fear the author will read it and have their feelings hurt. These reviews are just for me and my 2 devoted followers.

Elle Kennedy, I love and appreciate you and still think that the Off-Canpus series is some of the best contemporary romance ever written.

More like books 1-7. All followed the same plot. Beginning, lots of smut, HEA. Most of them begin as flings and end in love. I got them confused because of how many characters there are and all end up being in each other's books. By the end of took me a week to finish the last book because it was so repetitive and it got boring. I am starting the second box set only because I bought it and I am determined to read what I bought. 3 stars for the good smut. 2 stars for the actual stories.

If you read one or two you've read them all. Even the sex scenes are very similar. But insert tab A into tab B never changes the before and after is what makes the scene and even that had a great deal of similarity. But while Seals are know for rock hard bodies not most are drop dead gorgeous. A few flaws or imperfections might be a nice change of phase.

Is it hot or just me?

Well this was quite the read and sizzling hot!
I enjoyed each book in the box set. Who doesn’t love a hot Navy SEAL?? Well let me tell you a whole team is even better. Add some strong minded successful women and I’m sold.
Great read, couldn’t put it down and already downloaded the next box set. Elle Kennedy doesn’t disappoint yet again.

I read the first three stories in this box set. They were ok, but I can't say I was blown away. The characters just seemed superficial and immature. I didn't want to continue reading, so i gave up after the 3rd.

Great series of novellas!

This boxed set gives you a little of everything. Flirting, steamy scenes, ménage and more. These soldiers are easy on the eyes but fall hard for their ladies! Definitely reading set 2.

Men in uniform

I little more sex than I prefer but so easy to read and fun, humour is key to all three stories and happy ever afters make all three worth reading. I love how mushy men get over their kids!

[Patti · Rating 4 out of 5]

Reading the novellas was enjoyable, but I really liked reading the full-length book, Cash and Jen's story. An ex that won't go away, one couple's having marital problems, some characters end up in a holding cell. It all made for some pretty interesting reading.

So good!

I am loving these sexy, protective SEALS! The emotion in each story feels so real. I love how each one is so connected. I can’t wait for more! Off to read the rest of the series❤️

This is a good box set and eventually I will read book set 4-6. I like the characters but if you've read one book the others are pretty much the same. You have a group of Navy SEALS that hang out together and when they meet a girl they like they end up having a threesome with one of their best friends. The couple end up together and then you go to the next book that involves the guy from their threesome and a new girl. I think it could have been so much better but it is what it is.
