This was one of the books that I was anxious waiting for... It worth every minute of waiting!

Tommy and Prophet are one of my favorite couples! Their relationship it's stronger than ever... they want to protect each other, they want to have a normal living... and I loved their domestic life! They both like to dominate in bed, and they are both good at it! The sex scenes are fabulous as ever, but it wouldn't hurt if there were more! (view spoiler) ...more

4.5 PROPHET/TOM STARS

Why 4.5? As much as I love this author and several of the men in this series, I sometimes get to where I forget who is who and what is going on. I think there might just be a few too many characters involved in each book. I could ALWAYS use more sex but I understand that not everyone has my feelings about that. But, when it comes to Prophet and Tom, PLEASE MORE SEX! Those two things are my only gripes.

Other than the gripe, I love the pacing, I love Prophet and Tom. The suspe ...more

I love Tommy and Prophet and this latest book in the series was a winner for me! This book has everything i love about this series, plenty of action, suspense, intense hot steamy scenes and tender moments. *sigh*

What distracted me in this book was the many characters and stories to keep track of, maybe my memory is failing me with age or it’s just been too long since I read book 2, but I couldn’t keep track of everything going on. Having said that, it was only a little distraction, I still loved ...more

I couldn't wait to read this book, SE Jakes knows how to write sexy, mysterious, intriguing and did I say sexy stories?

This story takes you deeper into Prophets world, you learn so much about him and his nightmares, his disability and his relationship with Tom, Proph is one bad ass guy, nothing stands in his way when he wants something bad enough, he's a total machine. I loved every minute of it, I can never put down SE Jakes stories once I start reading them, they drag me in and don't let go t ...more

Ok. What a great book. I think I found my new favorite m/m couple. I did not connect
As well with these characters until book two and I did not buy their commitment to each other until book three, but wow, do I love Tommy and Prophet. This one was impressive. Jakes really wrote a complex situation with personal development of the characters (all of them) uncovered secrets (personal and professional) took the time for them to fall for each other before they professed their love, and kept the plot ...more

I have a habit of highlighting favorite passages in my Kindle books. My copy of Daylight Again looks like a patchwork quilt, with all the color-coded highlights and notes and bookmarks. I got hooked on S.E. Jakes' Extreme Escapes, Ltd. universe when I received a copy of Catch A Ghost from a publisher in exchange for an honest review. Of course, I immediately fell in love with Prophet and Tommy. Long Time Gone cemented the feeling, and I've gone on to read the rest of the EE, Ltd. books, as well I have a habit of highlighting favorite passages in my Kindle books. My copy of Daylight Again looks like a patchwork quilt, with all the color-coded highlights and notes and bookmarks. I got hooked on S.E.

Long Time Gone cemented the feeling, and I've gone on to read the rest of the EE, Ltd. books, as well as the Men of Honor series, in which Prophet (yay!) makes the occasional appearance.

Prophet is one of those characters who just gets under your skin from page one. Irascible, contrary, impatient, damaged, loyal, determined, sarcastic, sexy, plagued by PTSD, flashbacks, and what could politely be termed a dysfunctional family background, Prophet is a heroic figure who can't see himself as a hero and doesn't believe he deserves anything good in his life. He met his match in Tom, a handsome Cajun whose childhood memories could rival Prophet's for their nightmarish qualities, and who believes himself to be a good-for-nothing jinx who can only get his partners killed and is better off alone. Together, these men are beyond hot, downright combustible, sweet and raw and raunchy, and oh-so-perfect for each other.

Do you have to read the first two books before reading Daylight Again? Hmm, I guess not. But why would you want to skip any of this wild ride? If you want the fullest enjoyment, read all of the EE, Ltd. books before tackling this one. I highly recommend them, though you will most likely experience some frustration along the way. I know I did. Keep in mind that these stories are all works-in-progress, with more to come in the (blessedly) near future.

While some of the endings have led me to rant impatiently (most notably Dirty Deeds), the ending of Daylight Again was everything an avid fan could desire. I went into it knowing that there were two more Prophet and Tommy stories to come, so I expected some threads to be left dangling. The ending here was a big reveal that I saw coming a while back, so I got to enjoy a moment of smug satisfaction. I believe I even exclaimed, "I knew it!" even though no one else was in the room. What can I say? I really get into this universe and all of the incredible men who inhabit it.

As I've come to expect, this book was free of errors - grammatical or spelling - and an absolute, pure, undiluted pleasure to read. If you enjoy an erotic M/M story with plenty of suspense and action (of all kinds) and tons of biting wit, smart ass replies, moments of self-doubt, steadfast loyalty, death threats, tattoos, sexy piercings, mercenaries with disabilities, tandem parachute drops, two men who will do anything to protect each other, and tropical drinks with those cute umbrellas and big straws, I'm pretty sure you'll love this book, too. ...more
