Tonya Burrows launches her Hornet series with her fun
and
pulse-pounding new novel SEAL OF HONOR. Nonstop action and
strong characters make this a story that romantic suspense
readers won't want to miss!
Gabe Bristow was forced to retire from his career as a Navy
SEAL after a sustaining a serious injury in a car accident.
The last thing that he wants is the desk job that is waiting
for him in Washington, DC. His friend and former SEAL
teammate Travis Quinn convinces him to join him in a new
endeavor, and they form HumInt Inc.'s Hostage Rescue and
Negotiation Team, which is soon shortened to HORNET, much to
Gabe's dismay. Their private hostage rescue team is made up
of some of the best specialists in their fields, but they
don't have much time to learn to work together before they
are in action. The newly formed team is still gelling when
they take on their first op.
American businessman Bryson Van Amee has been kidnapped and
is being held for ransom in Colombia, and HORNET has been
hired to rescue him. Overseeing this unwieldy team would be
a challenge on its own, but what Gabe didn't expect was the
victim's sister Audrey Van Amee. An artist and free spirit,
Audrey couldn't be more different from Gabe. She is
determined to help Gabe's team rescue her brother, but they
are both distracted by their mutual attraction. While
investigating Bryson's kidnapping, Gabe and Audrey find
themselves kidnapped, and they must work together to stay
alive until Gabe's team can rescue them too.
Gabe and Audrey's romance is sweet and believable, but the
secondary characters really steal the show. Burrows has a
real talent for adding light-hearted fun to a great suspense
story. Even though they are all skilled operatives, the
secondary characters are a unique group of misfits, and
readers want to learn more about them in future books.
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.
