Tactical Takeover

We are back in Colorado with the newly formed division of Brotherhood Protectors. A group that dedicates themselves in helping those in need and/or protecting them. Where individuals that have left their military service, some due to injuries, are now finding a place to not only use their expertise, but a place to call home with their new “brothers”. One such new member is Sawyer Johnson. His injury has him questioning his usefulness and wonders if he can be of any service to this new group. He never thought that Kinsley Brothers, the woman sitting next to him on his flight to his new life, would change his view of himself, and of his future. Determined to find her missing brother, Kinsley leaves everything behind, and is blessed when this stranger and his new co-workers offer their assistance. The plot was engaging, filled with lots of action, dangerous men, new beginnings , and of course romance. Another entertaining story in this most enjoyable series. I was entrusted a copy of this book. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

Wow, this story was fast paced. Sawyer and Kinsley hit it off immediately. I enjoyed the connection they had, like they truly liked each other. They also seemed to be interested in what the other person thought or felt. I also like that there was no real relationship angst in this book. Sawyer and Kinsley went from instalike, to Insta lust, to instalove all in a matter of days. The mission the Brotherhood Protectors were on moved pretty quickly as well. I was not surprised about the decision Kinsley made, but there was a twist that I didn't expect. I also appreciated that Kinsley wasn't ex-military, A martial arts queen, FBI, CIA, or some other form of law enforcement. She was a sister trying to save her brother. There was a good amount of action, danger, and suspense. This book seemed like it was over entirely too quickly. I read it in one sitting. I would not have been upset if it had been longer. The topic was interesting but it never went into detail about how Bradshaw ended up like he did. I also missed why the sheriff reacted like he did. I may have overlooked the explanation. Of course everyone got their HEA. I voluntarily read and reviewed the Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

We find ourselves heading back to Colorado Springs in Tactical Takeover , Bk #4 in the Brotherhood Protectors Series by Elle James. I love the whole premise of this series- helping soldiers wounded in battle find hope and a different path in life. Brotherhood Protectors is such a second chance for our hero, wounded ex-SEAL Sawyer. And what better way to start this new chapter by helping a stranger he runs into on an airplane while heading to his new life. Meet our heroine, Kinsley, a medical PA who just quit her job and is on her way to Colorado Springs to search for her missing little brother (who may or may not have inadvertently joined a militant prepper organization. Sawyer and Kinsley join forces (yippey- enter some old Brotherhood friends) in their search for her brother and on the way get involved in a more explosive situation that even they anticipated:-) Oh, and did I forget to add that they are falling in love too? As Sawyer ironically notes about their talents: "While I was out killing people, you were saving people." Well in this case, both come in handy.... Read the book to find out what happens. Then start back at the beginning with Seal Salvation, Bk 1 -because you just have to know how it all started. I received an ARC of this book to review.
