CALL TO ENGAGE is the second book in the Team
Poseidon series by Tawny Weber. In this book readers get
Elijah and Ava's story. Elijah and Ava have a past, and one
that is not always good. When Elijah is severely injured he
seeks solace in his home town. Circumstances bring him back
to his ex-wife. Ava thought that she was through with Elijah
and ready to move on with her life but when he returns so do
her feelings for the man or did they really ever go away? As
Ava and Elijah begin to work through their past and work
towards a future there is still a question looming about a
traitor that caused Elijah to become wounded on the last
mission. Can these two survive not only each other but the
enemy intent on destroying the team?
CALL TO ENGAGE is a sweet second chance romance. Elijah and
Ava make a good couple and work hard to find a way to a
happy ever after. I loved that Ava is now a stronger woman
than the one Elijah left so many years ago. She has lived
and learned, giving her the confidence and strength to hold
her own. Elijah has grown as well and he has become a better
man. As the two begin to work through their past danger
comes looking for them. The two must learn to trust again
and work together against a common foe. It was nice to see
Elijah figure out what he truly needs to fully recuperate,
not only physically but mentally as well. Their story moves
along nicely and has a few twists that I did not see coming.
It is full of strong characters and emotions. Both Ava and
Elijah have harbored hatred and blame the other but find a
way to reconcile and deal with their hurt and their past.
Their love tops everything and they each learn that there is
enough blame to go around but that love is more important
and worth the trouble.
The Poseidon team are hard-bodied, fiercely competitive
Navy SEALs. But when a sensitive mission goes disastrously
wrong, three of the team's finest will have to trust their
hearts and instincts to uncover the truth…
Lieutenant Elijah Prescott should be spending his precious
leave somewhere with sun, surf and scantily clad women.
Instead, he's heading home with two goals in mind. Figure
out exactly how his last assignment went to hell and almost
killed him—and reconnect with the woman who might offer
salvation.
Ava Monroe has streamlined her life, eliminating every
source of pain—including a marriage touched by tragedy. One
glimpse of her ex and those good intentions turn to bad-girl
desires. Her strategy: get over Elijah by getting under him
again, sating herself until she can finally let go. But as
betrayal within the rank of the SEALs turns deadly, there's
no denying that her heart and her life are on the line.
Elijah is the only man who can protect both…
