RS Review: Night Moves: A Shadow Force Novel [Mass Market Paperback]

I've finished "Night Moves" the 4th book in her Shadow Force series by Stephanie Tyler.

Product Description

Anything can happen under the cover of darkness.

Kell Roberts has walked the thin line between life and death for so long that it now feels like home. He is a soldier, a survivor, and a loner. Still, Kell cannot turn his back on the beautiful woman caught in his firefight against the drug lords of Mexico. She says her name is Teddie, but Kell senses there’s much more to her story — and it’s about to pull him into a mission he didn’t sign on for: keeping her alive.

Teddie knows this lean, mean rescuer just saved her life, but the steel glint behind those soft gray eyes seem to be hiding something deep. The men after Teddie are deadly, but the man who holds her life in his hands and tempts her with his wicked touch is even more dangerous. He could make her dream about living and loving again. And if they can survive, maybe, just maybe, they can stop fighting the world and each other — and simply surrender.

My Review:

Kell and his best friend Reid are on a mission to assassinate a drug lord when a beautiful women crashes onto their site just when they are about to make their move.

Teddie Lassiter watched as her family was massacred and is out for revenge in Mexico.  She has been living in WITSEC program but has finally had enough.  She is on the hunt for the people responsible for the murder of her family.  She finally finds them only to be double-crossed and is now on the run with Kell and Reid to help her stay alive.  She's a photographer.

I really enjoyed the deep friendship that Kell and Reid have for each other.  Loved learning their background and both have family issues.

I didn't really feel a connection between Kell and Teddie other then sexual attraction.

4/5

RS Review: In the Air Tonight: A Shadow Force Novel (Shadow Force Novels) [Mass Market Paperback]

I've finished "In the Air Tonight" the 4th book in her Shadow Force series by Stephanie Tyler.

Product Description

With danger closing in, all they have is each other.

Haunted by a mission he barely survived, Delta Force operative Mace Stevens still carries a soldier’s burden. Running a small bar in upstate New York, he remains a stone-cold warrior who guards dangerous secrets and stays ready for anything. Anything except beautiful, vulnerable Paige Grayson, who shows up at his door, demanding answers about her heroic stepbrother’s death under his command.

Paige bears burdens, too. She’s plagued by demons unleashed by an older brother who committed mass murder before her eyes. But here in this snowy haven with Mace, she almost feels safe from the menacing promises of her insane sibling. As a nurse whose hands can read the deepest thoughts of anyone she touches, Paige knows that Mace needs her as desperately as she needs Mace. And when a faceless killer begins unleashing fresh terror, Mace proves just how far he will go to save the woman who means everything to him.

My Review:

This book opens up with Cael dealing with memory loss or amnesia when the mission he and his team goes very wrong with the death of a teamate. Mace Stevens who was the commanding officer of the mission is assigned to take care of Cael until he regains his memory.  He also owns a bar outside of New York.

Paige Grayson suddenly appears in the bar when she is chased away from the hospital she works at after being attacked.  She doesn't have anyone to turn to and she wants answers what happened during that mission and how he brother died.  So she seeks answers from Mace since he was best friends with her stepbrother.

Paige has a horrible childhood because she has a evil older brother who killed all her friends in front of her during high school.  He's currently in a psychiatric prison and Paige has a condition called psychometric if she touches a person or certain objects she can read their history.


Vivi the girl that Cael loves has found out he has returned so she heads up to New York to help him remember.  Kell and Reid pop in as they also deal with the aftermath of the mission.  We also see Dylan and Zane, Cam, Noah and the bartender Keagan with the motorcycle gang past.

Everyone also has to deal with mysterious deaths, rogue motorcycle gangs and maintaining a bar in New York.

This is a very fast paced military read with well written characters and a great storyline.  All the subplots blend very well with the main storyline.

4/5

My Review:
 
I highly recommend this series if you love hot and sexy alpha males with tough as nails females with alot of hot steamy action.
 
The Dead Man's Hand (DMH) terrorist cell kidnapped Dr. Olivia Strohm to teach a lesson to those who defy them; the doctor blew up one of their illegal organ transplant facilities. They tortured her and pumped drugs into her in order to keep her under their control while warning away other opponents. However, they failed to anticipate her inner strength as she escapes from captivity.
 
After witnessing and being powerless to prevent the violent abduction of Dr. Oliva Strohm by the terrorist organization DMH (Dead Man's Hand), Zane Scott has been haunted by her cries for help and a picture of her that he holds close. Zane's brother Dylan, has finally gathered enough intel to enable Zane to find Olivia and bring her home. Zane therefore takes leave from his duties as a Navy SEAL and travels to Sierra Leone, a place that for him holds traumatic childhood memories.
 
Back home in the US, Zane's brother, Delta Force operative Caleb Scott and his team have received intel indicating software developed by computer genius Vivienne Clare's father has come into the hands of DMH. The software has the potential to cause catastrophic events at home and abroad if used by the terrorists. Caleb therefore follows orders and brings Vivienne in for interrogation, and while it seems she has no knowledge of DMH or that they have come into possession of the software evidence suggests otherwise. Vivi isn't at all what Caleb expected and despite being involved in a dangerous mission with DMH breathing down their necks he is sexually attracted to her and she to him.


We are also introduced to Dr. J., a missionary with military background who runs a number of clinics throughout the country offering health care to the people in the surrounding villages. Additionally, he recruits mercenary soldiers who are sent to defend the clinics from any number of threats. Dr. J's right hand man is Tristan, a former Army Ranger with a traumatic history related to his youth and discharge from the service. Tristan is tough, lethal and sexy as hell. Though he has not formerly attached himself to anyone or anything, Dr. J has earned his allegiance and Tristan has established relationships with the people in the neighboring villages. Rowan is also introduced into the mix, newly discharged from the Army where she served as a medic in Iraq. Rowan is a widow having lost her husband years earlier under the most horrific of circumstances (9/11).   These two people are humanity's walking wounded and they act on an instantaneous attraction and find love under the worst, most dangerous of circumstances.

I really enjoyed this book and highly recommend this series!  Alot of high octive action through out the whole book from the first page to the end of the book.

Really loved how the romantic elements were handled in the book though I wish that Caleb and Vivi had their own book.  Hope to see both in future books plus Tristian and Rowan and Dr. J.
