MISSION IMPOSSIBLE
Alpha Security operative Trey Hanson is ready to settle down. When he meets a gorgeous blonde in a bar, and the connection between them is off the charts, he thinks he's finally found the one. But after their night together ends in a hail of gunfire and she disappears in the chaos, Trey's reasons for tracking her down are personal . . . until he learns she's his next assignment.
Elle Monroe never expected to see Trey again. The night they shared was incredible, but the last thing she's looking for is a relationship. Now that it's clear she's being targeted, though, she has no choice but to trust this man she barely knows with her life. And Trey's not just determined to keep her safe . . . he's determined to win her heart.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Passionate chemistry and nonstop drama drive Hunt's second book (after Heated Pursuit) in the adrenaline-charged Alpha Security series. After a night of incredible sex in rural Thailand, first-name-only strangers Elle and Trey are left with different expectations. For nurse Elle Monroe, it has to be just a one-night stand, as she no longer believes in romantic entanglements. But Alpha Security operative Trey Hanson trusts his gut, which says this is more than just a fling. When Trey learns that his team has been hired by a senator to protect his daughter, who turns out to be Elle, the assignment becomes personal. Secluding Elle within the Alpha compound helps her bond with the Alpha team but doesn't stop the abduction attempts. So Trey and Elle relocate to an even more remote place, amping up the sexual tension. Team and couple bantering keeps the focus on the interpersonal as the Alphas work to uncover the culprit behind the threats. This story will appeal to fans who like a heavy romantic aspect to their romantic suspense and don't mind a heroine who's constantly imperiled and used as bait.

Fantastic
Another great romantic suspense story from this author. I really enjoy her writing style. There is a great blend of action, suspense, romance, and humor. This group of security operatives is more like a brotherhood than a business. There's lots of funny banter, sexy times, and high level action. In this story Trey Hanson, one of the Alpha Security operatives, meets Elle Monroe one night and their chemistry is off the charts. The have one night of passion but rather than waking up to an awkward morning after, the night ends in a gun fight and Elle simply disappears. Trey can't get her out of his head and tracking her down is not an option because of that alone. Add in the fact that she is actually his next assignment and finding her become priority one. When he finds her not only will he need to keep her safe but also convince her to open her heart to more. With him!
Great read and one you don't want to miss. I highly recommend it.
