3 Stars from me.

This is book 1.5 in the series Deep Ops.

This book is a novella, but it sure packs a punch. It always amazes me how much an author can put into a shorter story. Hunter and Faye grew up together in a foster home, and they became a couple. But the trauma from their pasts and their inability to share their pain fully drove them apart. Now they have to look beyond themselves to work together to save Hunter’s brother, that he did not even know existed.

You can thoroughly feel their anger and hurt, and share in their frustration with each other. And from the beginning you can tell that they love each other, but they let their other issues get in the way. There is a lot of action, with interesting secondary characters helping Hunter and Faye track down Jackson.

I quite enjoyed reading this book, and it’s a great little filler while waiting for the second book in the series to come out.

I received an advanced copy of the book from Netgalley to review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Was I hooked by this book? Yes.
