Liza’s Review:
I'm a huge fan of the Hostile Operations Team series from
Lynn Raye Harris. I'm not going to lie when I saw it was a
step-brother/step-sister romance, I almost stopped reading. However, since I'm
such a fan of the author and the characters from this series, I kept reading,
and I'm so glad I did. Hot Protector
is one of my favorite books in the series.
Hot
Protector was a super fast-paced story. As with all the Hostile
Operations Team books, there is plenty of action, though this is
from Russian mobsters rather than a military mission. I was excited for
Chase "Fiddler" Daniels to get his story. I loved that even though he
didn't like Sophie from when they were kids, he stepped up to protect her as
soon as he realized she was in trouble. I have to say based on the history
between them, I could understand if he had turned her away, but his mama raised
him better than that and it was just another reason I fell in love with him.
Sophie had always tried to be friends with Chase when he
came out to spend the few summers with his biological father, who happens to be
Sophie's adopted father. Chase is the first person she thinks of when she
realizes she is in over her head. While I felt like she was pretty naive
to not figure out Grigori was a bad person sooner, but she did pick a great guy
with Chase to get help when she needed it most.
Again the step-brother/step-sister thing almost put me off, but
after hearing they only saw each other for 3 summers and limited amount of time
then, I no longer really felt like they ever had a true sibling-type
relationship. I could tell from the very beginning that both Sophie and Chase
were attracted to one another and it really made me laugh as they each
tried to fight their attraction. OMG the chemistry between Sophie and Chase was
off the charts hot! Seriously my kindle screen steamed up anytime Chase and
Sophie touched each other. Even while on the run they couldn't keep their hands
off each other. I also love both Chase and Sophie were super protective of each
other, but especially Chase. I really felt like it was one of the sweetest
parts of his character.
While the Hostile Operations Team couldn't really
officially be involved since not a military mission, former and current H.O.T.
members always have each other's backs. I loved getting to spend time with some
of my favorite characters from past books and have to say I'm more in love
with Col. Mendez than I was before. I love we get to see his romance with Sam
build a little with each book.
Hot
Protector is the perfect read for anyone who enjoys a hot and sexy
romance with suspense and action thrown in. I can't wait to see which H.O.T.
member gets the next book and where Ms. Harris takes us.
