This one felt a little different than the other books. The stakes were high and I found it a little difficult to follow what the bad guys plan was or what their desired outcome was. I also didn't feel like Paige and Damian's love story was very well fleshed out which made their engagement pretty unbelievable. Also, I know that Damian isn't LDS but I don't think it ever said if Paige was LDS or not which was interesting. No language, no spice.

Definitely a fun read! Great characters, and I love how she keeps intertwining characters from her past books as supporting characters.

Just what I expected... a good, clean, enjoyable read. The romance seemed a bit more rushed than the previous books, but it was still good.

I enjoy Traci Hunter Abramson, I did get burned out of the Saint Squad for a while....but I did listen to all of them within about two weeks so go figure. This was a great addition, and I look forward to seeing more of her work.

This was a fast paced intense book with spies, drug lord, smuggling, undercover/fake identity, near death experiences and some fake dating.
I’ve read one other Saint Squad book and this is still well within the series but I didn’t feel lost, it’s a stand alone book. I was expecting to know a lot of the characters that were in Redemption (#11), so I was surprised that the main characters in Drop Zone weren’t mentioned in Redemption at all. So I definitely want to read more to see all the paths the characters took.
I do feel the ending ended quickly and I wanted a little more with the romance.

Protagonist Paige Vickers never could have guessed how much everything would change when she asked for a job transfer. Her whole life centered on being a psychiatric nurse for the CIA, but it started wearing her down. She needed a change, a chance to start over. When she’s transferred to be an assistant to an instructor for CIA undercover operations, she’s exposed to a world full or danger and intrigue where the stakes are higher than ever.
Damian Schmitt never dreamed that he would be transferred to the “Saint Squad” right after his completion of his training to become a SEAL. However, shortly after he arrives on the squad, everything starts falling apart. There is almost a deadly training accident, and then his team leaves for an assignment without him. When news comes that his team is missing, he is determined to find them no matter the cost.
Paige and Damian must team up together if they want to find the perpetrators and save their friends. They are racing against the clock. Each day makes it less likely they will find the Saint Squad alive. Racing against the clock, they need to decide just how far they are willing to go to save them.
Traci Hunter Abramson has done it again. Her “Saint Squad” series is nothing short of brilliant and the latest installment “Drop Zone” does not disappoint. This novel holds the perfect blend of romance and action to attract all readers.
“Drop Zone” is perfect for fans of the series or readers who want to jump into the series. For readers, who have read the entire series, this is a brilliant next chapter to the series. For those who haven’t read the previous books, this novel still promises a thrilling tale of adventure.
Abramson’s novel comes without the filth that can sometimes occupy novels. There is no swearing, no sexual references, and is suitable for readers of any age.
This novel is a fast-paced read that thrills from the very first page until the very last. Fans of suspense, romance, and action novels do not want to pass this one up.

Loved this addition to the Saint Squad series! I know some people complained about how the plot jumped around a lot between different points of view, but I kind of liked seeing what was going on in all the different situations. I think I missed the earlier story about Seth & Vanessa that introduced this "bad guy," so I'll have to go back and read that one. My only complaint is that things at the very end happened a bit too quickly, but it's a very minor complaint!
