Expected April 26, 2016

A Tortured Hero with a Heart of Gold 

Growing up on the streets of Rio de Janeiro, Javier Almeida has only his older sister to protect him. When she’s sold to a human-trafficker, he vows to hunt down those responsible. 

Years later, Titan Group’s Delta team finds him, tattooed and brawling, a vigilante protector with information they want. They take him in and train him, working him harder than a man should be driven, until he’s a soldier harboring an obsession. Ready for revenge, Javier ghosts his way across the globe, tracking the men who took his sister and working elite private security jobs. 

Meets Sweet and Sassy 

Jilted at the altar, Sophia Cole turns the reception into a one-woman party. She’s intent on devouring all the cake and champagne, so she can bask in the calories she’s been avoiding. In the midst of the revelry, he walks in, the one man she can never ignore. 

Javier is her older brother’s black ops teammate—an automatic Do Not Go There. But if there’s one thing better than fondant and a buzz to ease the wounds of a cheating fiancé, it might be a one-night stand with a South American military man. 

Game Changer 

Javier didn’t expect to see Sophia again. He never thought he would even want to see her again. He shouldn’t have touched her, but his mind won’t stay away from her. 

Now, Sophia Cole is thousands of miles away from the safety of her parents’ lavish estate and working alongside him in hell. She’s a staffer at an Embassy, and he’s there to keep them alive. There are bombs and bullets and blood-hungry enemies. 

And then she’s taken. Gone. Just like his sister. But so much worse.
Oh my!  It is finally Javier's time! And holy cow he is one hot Brazilian, who is also a hot mess. He's been on a single minded path for revenge against the men who took his beloved sister. He has fought, bled, hunted and sacrificed and continues his goal with the backing of his Delta brothers to bring down the cartel responsible.

Sophia Cole is his teammate's sister. After having a disastrous near wedding day, she is in need of some understanding and Javier happens to also be having a disappointing night. They find humor, comfort, and one night of amazing passion and connection. But their lives are so different. He has his duty and goals. She has her own dangerous, but altruistic missions. But as they find themselves crossing paths again, they cannot resist the pull. Their times together may be short, but they are steamy and become more and more important to them.

But they are both afraid of feelings, loss, and the fact they live so differently and have conflicting views on the future. It becomes a matter of priorities, faith,and trust. But there is also guilt, fear, distraction, and danger adding tension.

Javier is a man who has been fueled by rage and needed adrenaline as an outlet. But Sophia has a way of calming his demons while also bringing out protectiveness and need. He is confused and conflicted about duty, distractions, and a foreign feeling of hope. He has a vulnerability hiding under his tough outer layer. And Sophia manages to get in there.

Sophia is a diplomat's daughter, but she is also a bad a** in her own right. She goes right into dangerous countries and in the middle of precarious situations. She's been burned by love. She has trouble believing in Javier and his unstable lifestyle. She needs to be settled, but also to be able to be independent and do what she feels she has to do.

Together they are wildly passionate and sweet. I just loved them together. But they definitely had challenges and there was no easy path for them to deal with the issues important to them and reconcile their diverging lives.

The Delta team is all accounted for--Brock, Sophia's brother Colin, Ryder, Luke, Grayson, and a few Titan cameos as well. Her friend Hana was featured and I have a feeling we may see her again. This was another exciting, suspenseful, and action-packed installment with steam, emotion, and humor. It definitely had my heart racing for various reasons. I really fell for the broken hero Javier, admired strong-willed Sophia,  and loved the twists in the story.

I was gifted a copy in exchange for an honest review.
Javier “Brazil” Almeida’s entire focus is on revenge for his sister. Watching his sister sold to the Primeiro Comando cartel as a child rocked young Javier’s entire world and has left him all twisted up inside. He couldn’t do anything to stop it at the time, but as an adult he seeks revenge in her name. All of Titan knows that is his goal and P.C. is his.

Sophia Cole is off limits according to her brother, Colin. As the daughter of a diplomat, she grew up with the expectation of perfection, which she has always felt she doesn't measure up to. When she walks out of her own wedding, Javier is captivated by her strength even as she struggles with the decision. Not one to have a one night stand, when she finds Javier in an empty room, they lean on each other and have a night of firsts for both of them.

After one night of heat, passion, and Portuguese nicknames, Javier is called away on a Delta mission. Six months later, they run into each other in Honduras when the tensions are high.

Javier is my new favorite Titan/Delta man, though I’m pretty sure I say that with each new hero. His weakness for Sophia and the conflict he feels as he must choose between his sister’s memory and the reality of Sophia made me love him even more than I did when it was just his Portuguese tongue reeling me in. This Brazilian transplant has so many demons chasing him, he doesn't feel like he can settle in one place or even with one woman until he sets things right for his sister.

Sophia goes through a great metamorphosis throughout the book. From standing at the altar, to walking (head held high) back down the aisle alone, and on to Honduras, she shows an inner strength that might sit down in moments of highest strength, but kicks back in soon after. She knows how to stand on her own, which is the best kind of heroine for a Titan/Delta man. She may have made some decisions that seemed to put her in further danger, but she always knew why she was doing what she did and was willing to face the consequences of her actions.

I love the tension, both sexual and suspense, throughout this story. With Sophia being the sister of one of his teammates, Javier does not take starting something up with her lightly, but he also can’t find the strength to fight the pull he feels towards her, especially when she needs a shoulder to lean on. Sophia, despite not being a trained operative, can keep her head under stress. While she takes risks, she has a focus on her mission and her cover. For the first time ever, Javier is distracted on ops. His team notices, though it takes time for him to admit his reasons.

The surprises that came in the end of the story made this an entertaining read beyond the danger and threats swirling around. I loved the choices Javier had to face, and the way he came to each decision.
I love the little cameos by my Titan favorites, but also the camaraderie present between the Delta team. These men have a slightly more targeted mission than Titan, and their reasons for being a part of Delta are all personal.

Delta: Retribution (Delta #1)

A MAN IS NOTHING 

Trace Reeves was one bad day from a dishonorable discharge. The best the Navy SEALs had to offer, he became a vengeful, angry mess when his twin brother was killed-in-action. Now he's focused on a deadly obsession and unable to cope with the pain and guilt... except one time, in the arms of a one night stand that he'd never see again. She was smart, the sexiest thing he'd ever touched, but she disappeared into the night. 

WITHOUT HIS TEAM 

Titan Group was recruiting for their Delta team. They wanted ghosts. No ties. Nothing personal. The best of the best who could live off the grid and surface when commanded. Trace was the perfect recruit. Damaged. Heroic. Nothing to lose. 

UNTIL A MISSION--OR A WOMAN--CHANGES EVERYTHING 

But when Trace's one-time fling becomes his high-value target during a black ops job, the lines blur between her rescue mission and saving himself.

Add to Goodreads 

From Liliana Hart’s New York Times bestselling MacKenzie family comes a new story by New York Times bestselling author Cristin Harber... 

When Luke Brenner takes an off-the-books job on the MacKenzie-Delta joint task force, he has one goal: shut down sex traffickers on his personal hunt for retribution. This operation brings him closer than he’s ever been to avenge his first love, who was taken, sold, and likely dead. 

Madeleine Mercier is the daughter of an infamous cartel conglomerate. Their family bleeds money, they sell pleasure, they sell people. She knows no other life, sees no escape, except for one. Maddy is the only person who can take down Papa, when every branch of law enforcement in every country, is on her father’s payroll. 

It’s evil. To want to ruin, to murder, her family. But that’s what she is. Ruined for a life outside of destroying her father. She can’t feel arousal. Has never been kissed. Never felt anything other than disgust for the world that she perpetuates. Until she clashes with a possible mercenary who gives her hope. 

The hunter versus the virgin. The predator and his prey. When forced together, can enemies resist the urge to run away or destroy one another?
