I was a wee bit disappointed by this one, though to be fair I was having a horrendous week, so it might have been me. I struggled a bit to warm up to Finley, which led to a bit of soul searching, as she isn't likeable and you understand why... but gosh was she mean at times! I think if there had been a few more scenes of her being sweet with her colleagues or her mate, it might have helped, but this is always tricky when the pace is so swift. As for Sabin, it was a shame he wasn't set up a little bit more, his extrasensory powers were stated up front but didn't really seem to be an issue as the novel wore on. As warrior-dom (warrior-hood? No idea what the phrase is) is thrust upon him, I wondered if he might have been a nerdy little scientist who just wants to learn underneath all the brawn, but this wasn't really developed.
But. BUT. That ending. Wow. I have reread it several times now and I am in love with Thane and Kaira already, I really hope their book lives up to the hype machine churning in my mind, because what a fantastic set up. And I have only two weeks to wait! Thank goodness for fast writers like Anna Hackett.

Series: Eon Warriors #7
Rating: 4 stars - It was really good
TW: kidnapping, death of coworkers, PTSD
Weapons scientist Dr. Finley Delgado is determined to get her new defense weapon operational before the Kantos have a chance to invade. She doesn’t want Security Commander Sabin to invade her lab because he will be a distraction. While working tirelessly to develop the weapon and fend off Kantos assassins, Sabin and Finley grow closer together with each day that passes.
I really enjoyed this one. Finley was a smart, determined scientist who has had a traumatic past. While she may be a scientist, she wasn’t afraid to defend herself of Sabin if necessary. Finley was just a great heroine who I instantly liked and want to see more of. Sabin was a hunky, alien warrior who was determined to fight his feelings for Finley. I love a protective hero who is fighting his feelings.
These two had a lot of chemistry and were a great couple. I loved that they weren’t afraid to die together if it meant they didn’t have to part. Anna Hackett does an amazing job at creating emotional characters and scenes that just keep you hooked to the story. Also, I am eagerly waiting for the next book after that ending.

The Eon have landed people! Now that Earth and the Eon have an accord to help each other, the powers that be have instructed that they work together to help strengthen Earth's defences.
Sabin had an interesting first meeting with Dr Delgado. She may be the leading authority on weapons to defend Earth but she could do with a crash course in dealing with her fellow Earthlings never mind hulking Eon Warriors. Finley Delgado takes her job very seriously, maybe too much so.
But after a narrow escape and losing some friends and colleagues, she's living to make sure that they are not fogetten.
Sabin and Finley are like explosive chemicals! If Finley just let go you know that they'd be awesome but Sabin has a few walls to bring down first! Whilst it is nice to be on Earth for a change, that doesn't mean things are safe or sedate! Sabin and Finley have more than a few close calls with assassins, hunters, and other dangers.
Finley may be the smartest person in the room but she doubts her looks and the reasoning that Sabin seems to want her. She fears there is always going to be a motive behind why someone wants her. Sabin himself isn't free of doubts either. He has some hurdles of his own to overcome and his past emphasis on never wanting a mate is going to come back and bite him big time!!!
P.S. We also get to go to Australia with our intrepid duo and I couldn't help but try and see if any rogue Hell Squad ancestors popped up!! LOL
Whilst I'm happy to know that Thane is getting his HEA (go silver fox, alien hottie healer) but I'm desperate to see a certain King fall hard!!!

Another great book in this series!! I think what I like most about this series is all the characters are strong but flawed & help each other through accepting the love of the other.
Hackett writes some of my favorite action books of all time... but not this one. Her last few books have been weak imo
