A Warrior's Passion #2
Dixie Under Siege
The only thing stopping Navy SEAL Josh Hunter from igniting the embers between him and Dixie is the psychopath hunting her. Dixie’s fresh start in San Diego eclipses into a nightmare. Not only does she have to deal with a stalker who’s been on her tail for years, but the man who broke her heart strides into her shop hotter, broader, and braver than she remembers. Dixie has two Run or make a stand with the man she nearly married. Josh drops by the Erotic Bean for a cup of java and finds Dixie Hammond behind the counter. Their reunion goes as expected. The unforgettable spitfire orders him out of her shop. Emotions aside, she needs his protection. With Alpha Squad's help, Josh removes his combat boots and hunts his target as a civilian. Something he's willing to do for the woman who heats his body temperature to boiling.

Have you read any of this authors stories? If you’ve read her A Warriors Challenge or book one of A Warriors Passion you will have met some amazing Navy Seals. Each and every book has literally got under my skin in a very positive way. You will also have met my book boyfriend Thane so be warned he’s mine!!!
Dixie Under Siege is Josh and Dixies story. Childhood sweethearts who went their separate ways but never forgot each other. Dixie is running from a stalker who has followed her too many times. When Josh walks into her coffee shop he will do anything he can to protect her, but will Dixie allow him to help her.
I absolutely loved this story. It’s a well written story with some great and likeable characters. I really hope this author writes many more stories of my favourite characters.

A great second story. Josh has feelings for Dixie, but right now he has to keep her safe as a priority. Romance might come later. Received a complimentary copy and reviewed because I loved it. Don’t miss out.

An amazing read
I loved this book. Natasza always does an amazing job writing in depth characters dealing with intense issues. I wanted to wrap these characters up and keep them close. What an amazing story.

I received this book as an ARC from the author for my honest review.
Dixie Under Siege is the next exciting instalment in Natasza Waters Warriors Passion series, and slots in nicely directly where Cricket Under Fire leaves off, so the time line of events is smooth. I feel whilst you could read it as a stand-alone, to really pick up on the back story of events and characters mentioned, and enhance your overall enjoyment of the book, you should definitely read Cricket Under Fire first. I loved this book- as with all of Ms Waters military romance, because I feel what she writes is authentic. The military jargon and terminology used is seamlessly interspersed throughout and the writer is at ease with using them, which is reflected in her writing. This book is essentially a second chance love story, between Dixie Hammond and Josh Hunter who broke up after their deeply religious parents placed immense pressure on them to marry at 18. They meet again many years later as adults, older, wiser, with life experience and slowly get comfortable with trusting each other again after the hurt of the past, but oh the fireworks when Josh try’s to push his way into her life again! The problem now is that Dixie has a stalker who has followed her year after year and is getting increasingly more threatening. This brings out Josh’s protective instincts and leads to some very suspenseful moments, and with Josh’s next deployment coming up, the pressure is on to find the stalker and keep Dixie safe. This is where the book truly hit its stride, and the pages just kept turning.
For those readers who have consumed Ms Waters Code Name series, We also get to catch up with Red, (love him), Ghost and Snowwhite, all the other beloved characters, and it was really good to meet the children of Thane and Kayla and see them as parents to young children.
I enjoyed Dixie Under Siege, and I’m looking forward to the next book in the series, and I highly recommend reading it. Thank You Natasza for sending me an ARC, I appreciate it, but I have to say, you are an auto-buy author for me.

“…it didn’t matter how broken I was, he would walk through Hell itself to find me and bring me back to the light.”
For over a decade, Dixie Hammond has been on the receiving end of a psycho stalker. Moving from state to state, she receives a few months reprieve before the sadistic notes and texts once again start. Tired of always being on the run, Dixie is ready to take a stand. But never did she dream that her once upon a time lover and ex-fiancé would be the one helping her confront her foe…
At 18 years of age, Josh Hunter was head over heals in love with the girl next door. Dixie was his one and only, but when she breaks off their engagement to go off to college, Josh in turn joins the Navy and becomes a member of the elite Alpha Squad Navy SEALs. Always remembering the girl he loved in his youth has kept him returning from missions time after time, so when he bumps into her at the local coffee bar, time stands still, and it’s as if they had never been apart. But Dixie has a tormented past, and her SEAL will have to win the biggest battle he’s ever fought to gain her trust…as well as her heart…
WOWZA! Reader, I’m gonna be flat out honest when I say military romances are not my usual troupe. But, I luv Natasza Waters’ writing style, so of course I jumped at the opportunity to read her newest release! This sizzling hawt military romance has just the right amount of heat combined with a whodunit thriller that will keep you guessing right up to the end! One of my fav reads of the year! Highly recommend!

Dixie has learned that you can't trust love. So when a blast from steps into her present can she trust his word now?
Dixie Under Siege is second in Natasza Waters' A Warrior's Passion series. It does not need to be read in chronological order.
Dixie is stronger than she gives herself credit for. She has lived her life in spite of her stalker but she is alone. Josh has soared as a SEAL but he has nothing but his career. And then he sees Dixie...a blast from his past. Can he convince her to let him help her? And is protecting her all he wants? I thoroughly enjoyed finding out as Ms. Waters returns to the world. I loved seeing old friends even as we got to meet new. I loved seeing Josh find his way through the minefield his past with Dixie leaves him with. Iui a he up to the challenge? And is Dixie willing to trust in her first love?
This story is full of emotional highs and lows as Dixie navigates the changes Josh brings. This story is well written and action packed. Ms. Waters kept me on edge from beginning to end. I can't wait to see where she will take us next.

This a second chance at love book with suspense. Josh and Dixie were in love when they were teenagers but made choices that broke them apart. Years later by chance, they met again but Dixie has a stalker for years and Josh is now a Navy Seal and is going to do all he can to protect her. I loved that characters from previous storylines of A Warrior's Challenge series were in this book. Overall I enjoyed the storyline because of the depth of the characters but I thought it was a bit anti-climatic with the stalker in the end but it was still an good read.

The action is gripping, the chemistry is explosive, the characters are thoroughly engaging, and the storyline is completely riveting. There’s plenty of intrigue and excitement to keep you on the edge of your seat and the moments of passion are hot and steamy. Dixie and Josh’s story is a tale that will pull you in from the very start and keep you enthralled until the very happy ending. I highly recommend this wonderfully captivating, page turning romantic suspense.

This is my first book by Natasza. The excerpt sounded like a good romantic suspense. When I got the book, I thought it would be too technical with army jargon and such. It was not. It was also a fantastic read! The story was detailed and descriptive and kept my attention. This was a good love story of second chances. I can't wait to read more books by this author!
My honest review is for a special copy I voluntarily read.

OMG!!! This book had me under siege!!! I was enthralled by the plot. I was totally captivated by the way Josh and Dixie’s story is turning out to be. I just love second chance romance and this is one of the best I’ve read. I LOVE Josh and Dixie as a couple. They make a great one!
Of course, another thing I LOVE about this book is that I got to see the other SEALS as well. Great reunion!
Another great book by one of my fave authors, Natasza Waters.

Dixie under siege is a book that will suck you in till the end, and at the end you will be scratching your head having never seen the ending coming. Josh and Dixie have to reconcile their past and forgive the past hurts in order to have a chance at a future.

First, Cricket was under fire, now Dixie's under siege. It'll keep you guessing until the end.
The family of SEALs you know as Alpha Squad and their wives come together once again. Commander Josh Hunter stepped into Ghost's shoes when he left NAB. He's not a hardliner like Thane Austen, but the commander has the men's respect. The person who doesn't hold Josh in high regard is Dixie Hammond, the owner of the Erotic Bean. When she sees him, Dix orders his ass out of her coffeehouse. They haven't seen each other in fifteen years. Obviously, she's still pissed at him.
Not only is great java important to the team guys, but they can clearly see the gal Josh Hunter almost married is twisting him in knots. Sounds to me as if there's unfinished business between the fiery owner of the Erotic Bean and the guy she almost met at the altar.
When Josh finds out Dixie's life hasn't been easy, he digs deeper. Learning there's a predator on her tail, he tosses his combat boots to catch the psychopath. But Josh won't have to fight this battle alone. There's one man who knows how to hunt a psychopath, and as the chase leads into dangerous territory, Admiral Austen returns to lend a hand.

Brimming with heart-palpitating moments and twisted shock and awe, Dixie Under Siege left me tangled up in more ways than one.
I loved Dixie and Josh together - how they had a shared history, but needed to rediscover each other as adults. Both had a powerful strength and loyalty within them that carried them through some pretty intense and horrific events. I adored Josh pursuing Dixie using the deepest lessons being a SEAL taught him. Dixie's inner drive and stubbornness gave her what she needed to survive until she was gifted with the chance to thrive.
I loved getting to reconnect with the men of Alpha team and their families, and feel pulled back into their world and welcomed with open arms.
Hang on tight for a rollercoaster of a ride - and try not to throw your kindle a time (or two) as you encounter the loop-de-loops and tummy-rolling drops. If you loved the Warrior's Challenge series and the first of the Warrior's Passion series, you'll be right at home and enjoy this next adventure.

4.5 out of 5 stars!
Ya know... I just don't think there is any author who writes military suspense as well as Nastaza Waters. The first book in this series was good, but holy hell, this one is even better. I had a really hard time putting it down and had to force myself to so I could get other stuff done. There was one twist in the book that I totally didn't see coming.
As usual with Ms. Waters male leads, I have a new book boyfriend. I love Josh Hunter and all of the Navy SEALs that Natasza writes. Although Mace will always have my heart. I now need to go back and read the couple that I haven't read, because no one does it better then Ms. Waters. :)

WOW! I like reading about Seals ( I’ve lived about 2 miles from the home of Seal Team 6 since they moved there in the ‘80’s!). And I’ve found an author who writes a great Seal story! Josh and Dixie have a troubled history and superb chemistry. Josh’s protective side comes out when he finds Dixie after 15 years. Dixie has been stalked for 12 years and with Josh’s (and his Seal Team’s help, she makes a stand rather than run! Suspense, intrigue, romance, and more all rolled into a story that keeps the reader guessing. Loved it!

I love everything Natasza Waters writes. Hands down she is my favorite author. Her characters are always well developed as well as the supporting characters. Her plots draw you in and keep you wanting more. I also love how the supporting characters provide depth to the story. As you get to know her characters, you can see a different side to their personalities throughout a series. Her characters feel more like family than just a name on a page. This to me is important as I feel vested in the outcome of one of her novels. Get one of her books a try and I promise you will not be disappointed.
