HOT SECRETS (HOSTILE OPERATIONS TEAM #13)

She nearly ruined his life. Now she needs him to save hers.

It was supposed to be a simple job for hacker Bliss Bennett: access confidential files and turn them over to the CIA. But something went wrong—and now Bliss has a target on her back. With no idea who to trust, she heads straight toward the one man she hopes won’t turn her away.

Sky “Hacker” Kelley is a badass Special Operator with lethal moves and mad computer skills. He hasn’t seen his former lover—former wife—in four years, not since she nearly cost him his military career. Her arrival on his doorstep in the middle of the night reveals a gut-deep truth—he might want nothing to do with her, but he still wants her. And as much as he’d love to slam the door in her face, Sky isn’t wired to turn away anyone in distress.

Protecting Bliss won’t be easy. The files she stole are at the heart of a dangerous conspiracy, and someone is willing to do whatever it takes—including kill—to get them back. It’ll take all Sky’s considerable black-ops skills to keep Bliss safe—and all his willpower to resist falling into her bed, and her life, ever again…

Liza's review:

HOT Secrets is the newest installment in the wonderful Hostile Operations Team series from Lynn Raye Harris. Just went I think the series can't be any more wonderful, we get an new story focusing on another team member. HOT Secrets is Sky "Hacker" Kelly's story and it was non-stop from the very first page.

Sky "Hacker" Kelly is a computer hacker just like his nickname suggests only so much more being Special Ops. He not only has badass computer skills, but has lethal protection skills. The only time in his life since he joined the Army has his life been up in the air was when he was married to his ex-wife Bliss Bennett, another hacker who is for hire to the highest bidder, which now is the CIA. When things go amiss with her current job, Sky is the first person Bliss thinks of to help her out.

I have to say the more I learned about Bliss and Sky's history, the more surprised I was that Sky actually helped her out at all. They both had some major baggage from their time together 4 years ago, and I liked they both had to work through everything at their own pace.  I absolutely loved their banter and chemistry from the moment they saw each other again. OMG I know the situation was super intense, but they made me laugh so much as they picked at each other. I could actually feel how much they both still cared for one another and wanted one another the more time they were together. Smoking hot sex was never far away with the chemistry between these two. Seriously I was surprised they held off as long as they were able to honestly.

I loved we got to see so many of my favorite Hostile Operations Team members for past books in HOT Secrets, but especially Mendez. His leadership to these men and women just add so much to every single story. I love he saw something in Bliss she didn't know she had in herself and knew she would be an asset to H.O.T. I have to say I was somewhat surprised by the CIA contact for Bliss, but not completely. I won't lie, when they met up, I didn't want her anywhere near him as I had a weird feeling about how he was acting. I was so glad she had Sky and so many other team members there to protect her, even as I knew something was going to happen. While I hated what they all went through, I loved that Sky figured out how much Bliss meant to him. 

HOT Secrets was such an amazing sexy and fast-pace story. Lynn Raye Harris once again delivered another winner in her Hostile Operations Team series. I highly recommend this book and series to anyone who loves fast-paced, sexy romantic suspense stories.
