My Thoughts
Phoebe is in Afghanistan doing a story on child brides when she runs into Seth, the man whose life she ruined years before with a story she wrote about a mission where he lost his team and he became a prisoner. He is now part of a search and rescue team sent in to rescue a soldier that Phoebe has connections to help. He has no idea who she is as they become close as they work together not only to save this soldier but each other as well.
I just loved Seth. Something about him just tugged my heart. Those moments when he so wanted to reach out to Phoebe and couldn't. The moment when he realized the hoodie was his security blanket. His frantic search in the village and the relief filled laughter. The realization he has as he gazes at the black and white photos Phoebe took of him. I loved Phoebe strength and tenacity. She didn't run away from this complicated man. She loved on him. I want to read more about them.
I loved the whole HORNET team and I really look forward to reading more of their stories - especially Ian's story. There's definitely something about Ian.
I loved Honor Reclaimed and give it 5 hearts!
About the Book
Former Marine scout sniper Seth Harlan is new to HORNET and
anxious to prove he can still do his job despite an ongoing battle with PTSD.
He remembers all too well what it's like to sit inside an enemy camp, praying
for rescue and waiting for death. So when a black ops soldier contacts HORNET
to rescue a buddy who was left behind, all sorts of nasty memories strain his
newfound stability.
When an interview with a runaway Afghan child bride leads
photojournalist Phoebe Leighton to an arms deal involving a suitcase bomb
powerful enough to wipe out a mid-sized town, she realizes this is one battle
she can't win on her own. Forming an unlikely alliance with a ragtag team of
military and government delinquents, she meets Seth, a sniper carrying as many
emotional scars as physical, who impresses her with his steely will and ignites
passions within her she thought long dead.
Suddenly this mission is about a lot more than an abandoned
soldier. Racing against the clock, Seth, Phoebe, and the rest of HORNET
struggle to stop that bomb before it reaches it's final destination: The United
States.

About the Author
Writing has always been my one true love. I wrote my first
novel-length story in 8th grade and haven't put down my pen since. I received a
B.A. in creative writing from SUNY Oswego and I'm now working on a MFA in
popular fiction at Seton Hill University.
When I'm not writing, I spend my time reading, painting
(badly), exploring new places, and enjoying time with my family. Give me a good
horror movie over a chick flick any day. (And, let's be honest, I'll take a bad
horror movie too!) I'm a geek at heart and pledge my avid TV fandom to
Supernatural and Doctor Who. I'm also a big fan of The Voice. What can I say?
Guilty pleasure.
I share my life with two dogs and a ginormous cat. I'm from
a small town in Western New York, but I suffer from a bad case of wanderlust
and usually end up moving someplace new every few years. Luckily, my animals
are all excellent travel buddies.
