About this listen

A rescuing-her-from-Mr. Wrong, forced-proximity, second-chance military-protector romance from New York Times best-selling author Lynn Raye Harris.

Everly Fairhope is desperate. When threats against her mother’s life escalate, there’s only one man she can turn to. But he’s as likely to slam the door in her face as he is to help her.

Special Ops soldier Jax “Gem” Stone didn’t think he’d see Everly again after the abrupt way she walked out of his life and got engaged to someone else. So when she turns up at his front door, begging for help, the answer is no.

Until someone takes a shot at them both.

Gem doesn’t want to get involved for good reasons, but there’s no turning back. He’ll protect Everly and end the threat, then he wants her gone.

Some things are easier said than done, though.

Saving Everly from danger could be harder than expected when powerful forces work against him. But letting her go a second time?

Impossible. She’s his, and he intends to prove it to her. If they survive what’s coming....

Find out what makes the men of H.O.T. so hot! Start listening to the Hostile Operations Team Series: Strike Team, Book 2 today and enjoy an action-packed, seriously romantic, and steamy-good-fun military romantic suspense.

Hostile Operations Team Greatness!!

So full of action. We begin in a desert country with terrorists on our tail. Everly is there to support her Congresswoman mother (who ultimately leaves them behind) and Gem and his HOT team are able to save the day. A brief romance ensues.

We pick the action back up as Everly is taking threats on her mother seriously and asks Gem for assistance. He is resistant as he has just heard the announcement of Everly’s engagement. But when they are shot at, all bets are off. All is not as it seems and we are off to the races with action and romance and intertwined relationships

A terrific story which will keep you absolutely spellbound. I listened to the audio, and it was perfection.

Great addition to this series!

In typical Lynn Raye Harris style this was an action packed and hot read that I was hooked on when I first started reading this book.

Gem, HOT operator, meets Everly when she was touring the Middle East with her Congresswoman mother and later has a brief relationship. After ending the relationship and she finds herself engaged to someone that she does not love, she ends up turning to Gem for protection when threats come to her mother's office and then later when someone attempts to take her life. The tension between the two is so thick that it could be cut with a knife until the pair admit that they still had feelings for each other. Determined to keep her safe and end the threat against her, Gem also hopes that there is a future with her too, but will it happen??

This was action packed and the chemistry between these well written characters was a great read. I love the HOT series and always look forward to seeing what happens next. I also enjoy the return of the characters from the previous series. I recommend this book and series to others.

Loved it

Lynn Raye Harris gets it right every time. Hot Shadows is exciting, 🔥 and filled with 😍🥰😘. Everly finds herself in a tight situation right situation thanks to her senator Mom’s not so great choices. That’s where our HOT operator comes in and the action begins.

The love story is a slow burns as our hero and heroine have a bit of a history, but once they get over that little hurdle their love story is perfect.

Loved the narrators. They did a fabulous bringing the story and characters to life.

Highly recommend HOT Shadows. The book and the whole series is amazing.

Great series

Even though this is a series, each one can be a standalone without feeling like you’re missing out. It’s a story of lost love because someone felt like they needed to protect the other. As things start to unravel you start learning more of the mystery that is going on. Just the right amount of suspense with sexual tension!

Suspenseful & Very Hot!

I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would at first. Gregory Salinas did fantastic as usual, but I struggled with the female narrator. She tended to pause longer than necessary at odd places in sentences, and she dragged out words far too exaggerated at times. I had to increase the speed to bear her drawl, but if I got it fast enough for her to sound normal then it made Salinas too fast.

The story was good enough to overcome my complaints though and I eventually found a happy medium. As predictable as most romantic suspense usually is, I admit my thoughts were wrong on multiple parts this time. Some things were obvious, but a couple of reveals blindsided me. No spoilers in my reviews. Read/listen for yourself. Gem & Everly are great together and I appreciated the slower pace of their relationship. Solid 4 stars for the audio, but an easy 5 for the story.

Worth Fighting For

When Everly comes seeking Gem's help after having broken up with him to "keep him safe", they don't realize the true scope of what they are fighting against. As the intrigue around them mounts, so do the feelings between them. Gem and Everly will come to realize that they are worth fighting for. Lynn Raye Harris continues to bring us HOT stories that never disappoint. The narration of Gem and Everly's story by Janine Grandma and Gregory Salinas was exceptional.

Fantastic story!!!

HOT Shadows is another winner from Lynn Raye Harris. I absolutely loved Gem and Everly's story! They had the best chemistry from the moment they met, and I loved their journey in HOT Shadows.

Everly's mother is very controlling and is trying to guide Everly to follow in her footsteps in politics. When threats continue to come into the office against Everly's mother, she turns to the one man she trusts to help find out who is behind everything. Gem and Everly dated briefly after first meeting, but Everly's concern over her mother interfering in his life and career, had her ending their relationship to protect him. Gem initially doesn't plan to help Everly until someone shoots at them, and he and his team must protect Everly and find out who is threatning her life.

I really loved this book. The romance between Everly and Gem gave me all the happy feels. The suspense portion of the story kept me guessing a bit and kept me engaged until the very end. I love the time with Gem and his team! The relationship between the team members is one of my favorite parts of the Hostile Operations Team series. Add is time with Mendez, and this book hit perfectly for me.

The audiobook narrators Gregory Salinas and Janine Granda did an amazing job with this story. There was seamless transition between the narrators, and I felt both did a great job with both the male and female characters voices. There is a pretty large cast of characters in each of the Hostile Operations Team book, and I love that both narrators did such a great job keeping all the characters voices unique.

HOT Shadows kept me on the edge of my seat until the very end. Lynn Raye Harris gave her readers a beautiful romance with the perfect amount of mystery and suspense. I highly recommend this story to fans of romantic suspense.

Loved It!

I truly enjoyed Everly and Gem's story. It was such a great second hand romance. Everly and Gem dated for a while and all of a sudden she said it was not working and Gem was left wondering what happened. Everly had her reasons and was unwilling to explain why at the time. Fast forward a few months later and Gem is finding out Everly is now engaged. Everly has been dealing with threatening notes her mother has been receiving. She works as a lawyer for her mother who is a congresswoman and also has been trying to dictate and run her daughters life. One of the reasons Everly felt she needed to break it off with Gem. Now Everly is in need of Gem's help to find out who is sending the increasingly threatening notes and now it seems going after Everly herself. Gem agrees to help her after he realizes Everly may be in danger. He also sees it as an opportunity to win Everly over again. This is a great book filled with suspense, danger, intrigue and a strong connection between Everly and Gem. I loved how his team is willing to jump in and help even when they could be spending their down time relaxing until their next assignment. Once again Ms Harris has written a wonderful book. Great HEA. Can not wait for the next book.
