HOT Angel: Hostile Operations Team® - Strike Team 2

I absolutely loved this latest addition to the HOT series. This one focuses on the leader of the Echo Squad, Cade Saint" Rodgers and Brooke Sullivan who we met briefly in Hot Ice. She is the best friend of Grace Spenser the now wife of Garret "Ice" Spencer. Brooke is more reserved and keeps to herself because of past trauma she went through two years ago. The two have met a couple of times but have kept their distance. Brooke has finally decided to open up a a bit and talks to Cade one day when team members and some o the women in their lives are at Grace and Garret's house to watch a football game. Brooke decides to give Cade her number when he asks if he can call her or she can call him if she needs someone to talk to. Their romance starts as a series of texts. Cade is very understanding and knows that he needs to be patient with Brooke. He has an idea of what she has gone through. Their texts soon evolve into sexy texts. Brooke runs into trouble one day and witnesses something that she shouldn't. She ends up calling Cade and asks him to come get her. From their he discovers she is in danger and he does all he can to protect her. Along the way their feelings for one another become stronger. This was such a great read and I loved the chemistry of Cade and Brooke. I enjoyed how Ms Harris had Brooke nicknamed Angel to Cade's Saint call name. This is another well written book an I can't wait to see which HOT member she writes about next. Loved the wonderful HEA! I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this Book.

"I feel like I'm on a train that's speeding toward a cliff. And I can't jump off." "So, we'll go over the edge together. We'll sail over the side of the cliff and find out if we crash and burn - or whether we fly." HOT HOT HOT!! And I don't just mean Hostile Operations Team! I think Cade is my favorite, but then I say that about each of the HOT members! Cade "Saint" Rodgers wasn't on the rescue mission when HOT saved Brooke Sullivan. He only knows a little about what she went through. But he wants to get to know her. He knows he scares her - all of the HOT team members scare her. Who could blame her after being kidnapped and threatened? If all she's able to do is talk to him via text messages, then that's what he'll do. As her walls start to come down, danger finds her once again. Can he protect her from having to endure another traumatic event? Will the walls he's been slowly breaking down be built back up - this time will they impenetrable? Not on his watch. Brooke Sullivan has spent the last two years just trying to hold it together. Men like Cade Rodgers frighten her. She doesn't like guns or the life he leads. But she's drawn to him. Starting with text messages is the only way she knows to explore what she's feeling. He's becoming the only man she even remotely trusts. When she finds herself the only witness to a murder, and there's a target on her back, she knows the only man that can help her is Cade. When her past seems to be repeating itself, and she once again finds her very life in danger, will she be able to get through it intact, or will this finally push her to the point of no return? Love, love, love the HOT series. The men are all deliciously alpha and sweet all at the same time. I know at some point this series will come to an end, but please not yet!!

Cade and Brooke may be my favorite HOT couple ever! I was in love with them from the first text and thoroughly enjoyed their banter and their sweet and naughty texts. They were both so relatable for me and I loved the dynamic of her having a dog. The character development was so well done that Incould picture everyone from the doorman to the creepy neighbor, which is something I’ve come to expect from Lynn’s books. This was another hit, and leaves me hungry for the next installment in the HOT series!
