5.0

This is the 12th book in Lynn Rae Harris’ HOT series and each book in the series just gets better than the last. Cade ‘Saint’ Rogers is the hero of this book who first met the heroine Brooke Sullivan at his teammates wedding. Brooke was a secondary character in book #7 Hot Ice and was kidnapped in an attempt to coerce her best friend. Brooke is still struggling two years later and has made significant changes to her life trying to cope with the anxiety she still has from her kidnapping.

There paths cross at a casual party and they strike up a text-based friendship that gets hot via some steamy text messages. While Saint is willing to go slowly with Brooke, suddenly her life gets threatened and he steps up to protect her.

This installment isn’t as intense with military operations, but Saint’s operator skills certainly come into play in protecting Brooke. Interactions with the other HOT team members and their ladies give the reader a satisfying update on characters from previous books.

Love Cade and how sweet he is with Brooke and his sensitivity to what she had previously experienced. Another fantastic book by Lynn! Can’t wait for the next book in this series! I received an ARC copy for an unbiased review of this book.

The Hostile Operations Team books and their spinoff series with the SEALS remain my favorite books from Lynn Raye Harris. These books are like crack to me and I have to devour each one as soon as it hits my kindle. HOT Angel pulled me in from the very first page!

Brooke Sullivan is still recovering from being abducted and held hostage over a year ago. She has moved into a condo and gotten a great dog, Max, but really hasn't dated anyone she was really interested in since she got home. She has only really dated one guy who she isn't attracted to that makes her feel safe.

Brooke is attracted to Cade "Saint" Rodgers, and he doesn't make her feel safe in the least. She is insanely attracted to him and while she feels safe enough to engage in texting conversations, Cade is such a big man she is a bit intimidating to Brooke in the beginning. I honestly loved they started their relationship via texting. Cade knew Brooke was extra special and he wanted her in his life, and I loved he let her set the pace of how they moved along. I honestly felt like they connected so well and so fast because Brooke had that initial distance of text only that she started to trust Cade way faster than she would have based upon his career and all she had been through with her kidnapping.

When Brooke's neighbor Scott is murdered, Brooke is the only person who might have seen the killer leaving their floor. Scott was completely fixated on Brooke and totally believed there was more to their relationship than Brooke saw. I loved that when Brooke realized she needed someone, her first thought was Cade rather than her best friend Grace. I felt like this was really when Brooke and Cade's relationship started moving into more of a couple than friends only.

I loved Brooke and Cade as a couple. They had amazing chemistry together, but it was when Brooke opened up and shared everything that had gone on when she was abducted that I knew they would make it as a couple. I absolutely loved Cade and Brooke as a couple. While she didn't love Cade's job, she totally accepted how necessary it was and how great he was at it. I knew at some point Cade would have to protect Brooke once her neighbor was murdered, and I honestly fell in love with the HOT guys all over again as they worked together to rescue Brooke from the bad guys.

HOT Angel is absolutely another winner in the Hostile Operations Team series. Lynn Raye Harris once again gives her readers a sexy romance with action that keeps the reader on the edge of their seat.

Loved it

I don't think there has been one book in this series that I haven't liked. The guys are super heroes and the girls super heroines. Impatiently waiting the next book.
