Hell or High Water (Deep Six #1)by Julie Ann Walker

In a world on the brink...
Six men. One sunken Spanish galleon. Millions in gold and silver coins lying on the ocean floor. And a past that refuses to let the guys of Deep Six Salvage forget the Navy SEAL motto: the only easy day was yesterday...
There's more than one kind of treasure...
The nation's security has always been CIA agent Olivia Mortier's top priority. But a mission-gone-wrong has begun to make her wonder if there's more to life than risking hers.
And more than one secret at the bottom of the sea...
Only two things could make Leo Anderson abandon his hunt for the legendary lost ship, La Santa Christina, and return to the world of weapons and warfare he swore to leave behind: a capsule of enriched uranium, lost on the ocean floor, and a plea for assistance from the one woman he can't seem to forget.


My Review:
Some of it I couldn't take seriously and some of the details weren't quite right but if you look beyond not taking it seriously its a decent story. As its the first book in the series much of it is spent plot, character and background building but the author also manages to drag our men through quite a few crazy adventurous situations all the while. I got a crack out of all the puns, quips and other oddities. (Although a few were a little over the top) The story itself was enjoyable and the characters were likable (beards in all- suba with a beard? hm... not so much) In the end Hell or High Water was a fresh change from all the recent military romances I've read lately and I will be looking forward to reading any future editions the author has in mind.
