Bryson Van Amee has been kidnapped and held for ransom by a
Colombian guerilla group. After the ransom call comes in,
his wife begins to try to gather the ransom; while a private
hostage rescue team is sent down to Colombia to try to find
him before he is killed. This mercenary group is a rag-tag
group of men who are experts in their given field, and are
also former military men or government agents. The men are
all broken and rejects; and are looking to find their way in
a world that no longer seems to need their talents or
service. The group is led by Gabe Bristow, a former Navy
SEAL.
As the group gathers in Colombia to begin the search for Van
Amee, they run across his sister Audrey, who has also come
to look for him, and who insists on being part of the
operation. As she is proficient in Spanish, Gabe unwillingly
takes her with him to interview Bryson's regular limo
driver. Once they leave the man's home they are captured by
a rebel group, and forced through the jungle as they are
taken back to the rebel camp. They escape this group, only
to fall into the clutches of one of the most powerful
paramilitary rebel factions in the region. This group is led
by Luis Mena and a truly evil sidekick. Now, Gabe's rescue
team of misfits are not only looking to have to rescue
Bryson Van Amee, but also Gabe and Audrey.
SEAL OF HONOR is a very good Romantic Suspense story; fun,
sexy, and exciting. Gabe and Audrey have very good chemistry
together. The romance was nicely done without overpowering
the story; which is well plotted and keeps the reader's
attention throughout. The action scenes were exciting and
almost non-stop, the plotline solid and with good dialog
between the leads. Once the story kicks in, the excitement
level rises, and the story becomes hard to put down. The
character and traits of the rescue team members were well
fleshed out. Each man got enough page time for the reader to
get to know them a little better and anticipate each
character getting their own book. There are a number of
possibilities here for further
stories in the Hornet series.
It's a good thing Gabe Bristow lives and breathes the Navy SEAL credo, "the only easy day was yesterday," because today, his life is unrecognizable. When his prestigious career comes to a crashing halt, he's left with a bum leg and few prospects for employment that don't include a desk.
That is, until he's offered the chance to command a private hostage rescue team and free a wealthy American businessman from Colombian paramilitary rebels. It seems like a good deal—until he meets his new team: a drunk Cajun linguist, a boy–genius CIA threat analyst, an FBI negotiator with mob ties, a cowboy medic, and an EOD expert as volatile as the bombs he defuses. Oh, and who could forget the sexy, frustratingly impulsive Audrey Van Amee? She's determined to help rescue her brother—or drive Gabe crazy. Whichever comes first.
As the death toll rises, Gabe's team of delinquents must figure out how to work together long enough to save the day. Or, at least, not get themselves killed. Because Gabe's finally found something worth living for, and God help him if he can't bring her brother back alive.
