Rescue Mission by Kendall Talbot
Alpha Tactical Ops #3

Intense, action-packed, story that had me flipping quickly to the next page staying up after the electricity cut last night. Couldn’t put this book down once begun.

What I liked:
* Maya Grayson: ex-military sniper, combat veteran, member of Alpha Tactical Ops, strong, dedicated, determined, seeks revenge for her sister, team building adventure business, good friend, protective, caring, unwilling to invest emotions in dead-end relationships, attracted to Neon
* Neon Bloom: ex-stuntman, mega-star actor, wealthy, many kidnap attempts, phobia related to childhood kidnapping, distant relationship with parents, grew quite a bit in this book, attracted to Maya, has a few hopes and wishes he believes Maya and her team can help him with
* Getting to see the other members of the team and how they are doing
* The plot, pacing, tension, and writing
* Finding out who was behind the kidnapping attempt and their motivation
* The way the team came together, took action, and the outcome
* Wondering what is going on with Viper and if his story will be next
* The conclusion and looking forward to the next book in the series

What I didn’t like:
* Who and what I was meant not to like
* The ruthlessness of the kidnappers and how horrible they were

Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Would I read more in this series? Definitely

Thank you to Booksprout and the author for the ARC – this is my honest review.

Hostile Mission by Kendall Talbot
Alpha Tactical Ops #2

Another thrilling chill ride filled with murder, mayhem, cutthroat dirty dealings, and a bit just enough romance sees another Alpha Tactical Ops member meet his mate in this ongoing story of a team trying to find the bad guy that created havoc on their last military operation.

What I liked:
* The setting of Antarctica: cold, dismal, bleak, and deadly
* Billie: tiny but mighty, brilliant, researcher, underestimated, left her family to save herself…and the world.
* Levi: ex-military, helicopter pilot, coming out of a dark place, difficult backstory, there for his team and for Billie once he gets to know her
* That the environment was a player in the story – had the power to kill as easily as a gun or knife
* The connection between Billie and Levi
* Getting to see members of the Alpha Tactical Ops team again
* Learning a bit more about the person/group that is probably behind what happened on the catastrophic last operation the team went on
* Wondering which team member will be up next to find their HEA and where the team will be working on their next mission
* The way things worked out for Levi and his mother
* That Billie was validated, again, for her choice to leave her childhood home and move on
* Wondering if Billie’s boss will get a set-down, when it will happen, and how it will come about.
* All of it really except…

What I didn’t like:
* Who and what I was meant not to like
* The bad guys that were truly evil along with what they did

Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Would I read more in this series? Yes

Escape Mission by Kendall Talbot
Alpha Tactical Ops #1

Two women trying to save endangered turtles end up in danger themselves. Great beginning to a new romantic suspense series starring Australian ex-military as lead characters.

What I liked:
* Nick: nickname Blade, team leader, lost his best friend and comrade in arms on mission that went wrong, seeking revenge, attracted to Zena but fighting going there
* Zena: roller derby athlete, sister, strong, runs into trouble spying in big business, caring, enjoys cooking, strong, resilient, attracted to Nick more than a little bit
* Brooke: Zena’s older sister, lawyer, marine biologist, environmentalist, once Nick’s girlfriend, wonder if she will have a story of her ow
* Meeting the people that will form the Alpha Tactical Ops team
* The writing, plot, and storyline
* The action scenes
* The way the team works together
* The Australian setting
* Wondering if and when there will be a resolution to why the last op the team went on for the military went so very badly and
* Knowing that there is another book to look forward too

What I didn’t like:
* Everything I was meant to dislike – the company/companies doing evil and whoever will be revealed as the traitor that set the team up on the mission that failed before this book began

Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Would I read more in this series? Yes

Archer has struggled for years with nightmares involving the last treasuring hunting dive he made with his father. A vicious shark attack ended his father's life that night, and Archer has spent years blaming his mother for dying just days after his father and leaving him to orphanages and foster homes until he was 18. The gold medallion he continues to wear is the only clue he has to the location of the treasure he and his father found that day. His bitterness has spoiled his relationships with women including Rosalina, the chef he hired to cook on his boat during his many fake treasure hunting excursions that he provides on his boat, the Evangeline. When she leaves Archer and goes back home to her grandmother's villa in Italy, a brief trip to a local church leads to the discovery of a stained glass window with an image identical to Archer's medallion. Rosalina realizes she will have to contact Archer to let him know about her find.

Treasured Secrets is full of mystery, romance, and adventure. The detailed descriptions of the locations including Italy, Australia, and the Greek Isles adds interest and depth to story even though many of the events are based on coincidence. The ugly villain, Nox is a little over the top, and the other characters are a bit one dimensional, but the fun factor in the rest of the story more than makes up its shortcomings. Overall, a quick and enjoyable read.
