Adam is attracted to Hannah Summers, but as she's his best friend, Phil’s sister, she's out of bounds. Unfortunately, Adam’s feelings for her are no longer clear cut as lines he shouldn't cross begin to blur.
As Hannah tries to help Adam come to terms with his life changing injury, confusing dreams taunt him with all that is now out of his reach. Despondent over his losses, Adam sends her away.
Taunted by images Adam's unsure of being fact or fiction, he begins to suspect he's either forgotten something important or else he's losing his mind.
Can he unravel the mystery to what he's missing, or will he lose something even more important to him than his career?
Previously published as part of the Help Our Heroes Charity Anthology, extended & restructured for rerelease.
Outranked in Love (Dennison's Security #1) Reviews
-
I haven’t read many army romance books. This one is about Adam a injured solider. His memory is sketchy and his leg will never be the same again.
Hannah is the girl he always wanted but never felt like he could have.
Now Adam needs to rebuild his life and Hannah is the one person he needs to see for what she truly is.

Outranked in Love by JF Holland is a Military Romance that I listened to on audio narrated by James Cortes.
This is the first book of JF’s that I have read and it definitely won’t be my last. This book made you feel the emotions of an injured solider coming home while being in love with his best friend’s sister.
James did a great job on the narration. I did have to listen to the book at 1.25 – 1.5 speed otherwise it seemed a bit slow on the narration. I really enjoyed James voice and the different tones he used for each character. It made it easy to follow along with the story.
I would recommend this book to anyone who loves Military Romances. -
Absolutely love this story. Ms Holland is one of my favourite authors, and I have yet to find a book by her I am not riveted by. She has a way of ensnaring you with her spirited characters, and 'grab you by the pants' plot lines - Outranked in Love, is no different.
Adam - a badly wounded war veteran, is plagued by more than just his injury and debilitating flashbacks. Something hovers at the edge of his consciousness and although he knows it's vitally important it refuses to be pinned down. Hannah, his best friend's sister and the one person who might be able to help, has no idea what haunts him, presuming he simply does not care. Hannah and Adam's story is raw yet sensitive, harrowing yet inspiring harsh yet beautiful, and I was totally vested their journey towards a seemingly impossible HEA. Great job! -
If you haven’t gone through a devastating injury you don’t realize everything a person has to deal with. When Hannah couldn’t understand why Adam hadn’t wanted anything to do with her it nearly broke her heart but when the hospital called she ran to him. Adam suffered more than a physical injury he had a mental one too, this story is about how he deals with it or doesn’t and how it effects Hannah and her life. Looking forward to more stories in the series.

I loved this when it was a short story in the Help the heroes anthology but now it's had more added to it I'm so in love with Adam even if at times I wanted to crawl into my kindle and shake some sense in to him..There's two things that JF Holland does well and that's write extremely good contemporary romance and injects it with sassy snarkiness I love this author she's fantastic at bringing characters to life and this book is no different..Hot,sexy and a tad emotional.

I was a little lost at the beginning but soon caught up with what must have happened before he left on his last deployment. During his deployment he is seriously injured and feels very sorry for himself. She tries to get him to get his head on straight he is limited but not dead kind of thing. This is all very common during war time, the veterans come back broken and feel useless but with good people in their lives they can make it thru. I enjoyed the story very much with the ups and downs associated with an injured warrior. This is not a light hearted story, it will make you sit up and take notice. The narrator did a wonderful job with the characters. I would recommend this story to everyone.

Overall: *****/5
Narrator's Performance: *****/5
Story: *****/5
This was my second JF Holland and I am absolutely in love with her. I am going to find more of her books.
The romance is well written, definitely makes you tingle. As with 'Date Night', you can see that J.F. Holland has thinks about every detail in her book. This makes it easier for the readers to visualize every situation down to the character's emotions.
This book also speaks about a sensitive issues and the author has handled the situation very gracefully. This is not a complicated story where you curse the characters for being stupid and for saying exactly opposite of what's on their minds.
You definitely need a box of tissues throughout the book.
I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes a good romance book. -
What a hard hitting gut wrenching read!
The feelings that you have while reading this packs a punch as you totally know that this is 100% true life for some people.
It gives you a small insight into military survivors mind and a glimpse of what they go through to get their life back on track!
