A new standalone
romance from New York Times Bestselling Author Lynn Raye Harris. Sexy,
action-packed, and thrilling!
Colonel John "Viper" Mendez searches for a ghost from his past... and when he finds her, nothing will be the same!
They told him she was dead. They lied...
Colonel John "Viper" Mendez is having the second-worst day of his life. Accused of using the Hostile Operations Team to assassinate a foreign official, he's gone from being a respected military black-ops commander to a fugitive in the space of an hour. On the run, hunted, and stripped of his honor, Mendez has nowhere to go--and few people he can trust.
Russian spy Ekaterina "Kat" Kasharin is a carbon copy of the woman Mendez once loved. Twenty-one years ago, Valentina vanished from his life. Kat claims to be her twin--but Kat's lying. Ordered by her superiors in Russian Intelligence to abandon the man she loved--or watch him die--Kat had no choice but to obey.
But twenty-one years is a long time to love a man from afar, and Kat won't stand by as a traitor plans his death--even if it means risking her heart and her life to save him. She can never reveal her true identity--or the secrets she keeps locked away. Secrets he would hate her for. Working with him is strictly business, and she won't let emotions get in the way. But the attraction between them is smoking hot--and it's not long before they're burning up the sheets.
When the truth comes out, the mission implodes. Everything Mendez thought he knew was a lie. He'll have to pull it together though before a deadly foe succeeds in taking away all he loves. By the time he realizes Kat might be most important of all? It could be too late to save her...
The Hostile Operations Team is a covert military Black Ops unit. Their motto is Where None Dare. H.O.T. operators come from all branches of the military. The only criteria for membership: they must be the best of the best!

Liza's Review:
HOT Valor is the book the fans of the
Hostile Operations Team books have been waiting for. Colonel John Mendez
finally got his book and it was absolute perfection. I loved every single
minute of reading HOT Valor. I will
be very vague in my review, as I don't want to give away any important details
to the story, so I'm just going with my feelings with this book.
First of all Mendez/Viper remains my absolute favorite character
in this series. I love that even when he is set up to take the fall, he will do
everything within his powers to protect both is country and the men and women
in his command. Seriously reading HOT Valor only made me fall more in love with
Mendez. I found myself experiencing so many emotions along with the characters.
Seriously time with Mendez and Kat about ripped my heart out at times. As the
back cover copy says Kat is really Valentina, and she had to fake her death to
protect Mendez, it killed me when they would talk about the past and she
couldn't tell him everything.
I was pleasantly surprised to
actually enjoy the amount of time Ian Black was featured in HOT Valor. I've always thought there was
more to him than we knew, and really loved seeing him in a bit of a different
light. I really do want him to get his story at some point in the future now. I
will say I expected to be more surprised by the reveal of Phoenix than I was,
but honestly it made perfect sense for this person to be Phoenix all along.
HOT Valor has all the action and adventure
I've come to expect from the Hostile Operations Team series as well as a rip
your heart out romance with a crying happy tears resolution. I've loved so many
books in this series, but have to say HOT
Valor is my absolute favorite. I highly recommend HOT Valor as well as the entire series.
