BLURB:
I’m not a man who trusts easily unless I’m trusting my brothers in arms. I’d lay down my life to protect them. After serving in the U.S. Marine Corps as a RECON Marine, I joined the FBI to keep on fighting for my country. When Captain Candy Sorensen tapped me to be part of a Tac Team of elite Special Operators from around the globe, I’d jumped at the chance. I’m good at my job but my personal life is a mess, filled with a series of never-ending one-night stands and nameless men, but my brothers are the only family I need.
Why would I ever want to find one guy and settle down?
Life moves fast in my world. I hold down two jobs, live in a house my grandfather gave me, and am responsible for raising younger siblings who are dearer to me than anyone in the world. Friends tell me I should be dating…out in the world, having a good time. I don’t see it that way. The kids and I count on each other because we’re all we have, so asking a guy to commit to a man with my responsibilities, is hopeless. No one could understand the hell our family has gone through to stay together and even if they could, what kind of man would agree to a ready-made family?
Still, sometimes I think…it’d be nice to find one guy and settle down.
They say opposites attract, but when a hard partying man with U.S. Marine Corps RECON training literally falls for a family man raising kids, both men find themselves living in dangerous times. The Mexican drug cartel targeting them for death, may have something to do with it. Non-stop action and relentless pursuit won’t stop Special Agent Nash Hampstead from protecting Joshua Calder with his very life…and just maybe, along the way…falling in love. Join them in the first book in the explosive FBI Files—Spec Ops Tac Team.
REVIEW:
Wow! What a heart stopping and exciting new series!
Special Agent Nash “Twizzlers” Hampstead is a one-and-done kind of guy. He never spends the night and he doesn’t do repeats. He parties hard and fights bad guys even harder. He trusts his “brothers” that have all been hand picked by their Captain. Candy has assembled a very elite Tac Team that have each others backs at all times. But he’s not happy with the new assignment they have “helping” the DEA on another cartel sting.
Joshua Calder could never have predicted how his night would play out when he ran into his friend Billy on the way to dinner with friends. Not only was Billy drunk and stoned, but suddenly needed more. Joshua couldn’t let Billy drive but he never imagined being stuck in the middle of a dangerous drug cartel and the DEA raid that reined terror on him. But this was only the tip of the iceberg for the danger he now was in. Danger that now included his sisters and brother he was raising on his own.
I loved this book. It was a nail biter for sure right to the end. I loved how Joshua tamed the demons that Nash had struggled with and and showed him that it was okay to learn to trust and develop feelings. That was a lot for a man that had been let down so severely by his drunken society mom and that bastard of a man that was his father. That family was a disaster and the only blessing was that they only brought one child in to that nightmare.
I will admit, I had to sit this book down at one point. I know the torture that Author Patricia Logan has put her men through in past series (think poor Thayne) and I wasn’t sure I was up to what I feared Patty was going to put poor Joshua through. I won’t share details but I am thankful that I made it through along side these men. I literally felt like I was right there with all of them in that Safe House holding my breath. Patty has a way of sucking you into her books and you’re right there beside these honorable men fighting for good against the most evil and vile of humanity.
I was thrilled to catch a moment with one of my favorites, Lincoln Snow, and hope to see others in the future. I know with Miguel and Raven on the team we are sure to see Cassidy and Mike from the LAPD at some point. And my fingers are crossed that I get my Thayne and Jarrett fix soon.
I think this is going to be a different type of Patricia Logan series. Most of the recent series were centered around one couple and then we have interactions with their fellow agents and friends. This series appears to be based on the men in this elite Tac Team that Captain Candy Sorensen has assembled. A group of men from all over the world that happen to be gay. This is the team that Miguel and Raven joined and brought Judy to. I can’t wait to get to know all these men and watch them find love while protecting and loving their brothers.
Great start to what promises to be a very exciting series. And I, for one, can’t wait for more!!!
