Defending Allye by Susan Stoker
5.0
Action packed right off the bat! I love this new addition to the Stocker universe.
Right from the beginning I was drawn into the action and then once Allye's snarky personality jumped off the page, I was hooked. I instantly fell in love with her tenacity at the same time Gray did.
The bad guy, Nightingale, is top level evil. I don't know what Stoker has been eating to come up with this level of evilness, but omg...she has upped her game and the reading is intense.
Grayson "Gray" Rogers is an ex-SEAL working for the Mountain Mercenaries. When a mission that was just supposed to be about gaining intel goes south and instead suddenly contains a hostage, Gray does what he has to do, rescues the woman. Stranded in the ocean, in the middle of the night, isn't ideal, but neither is losing the woman he rescued. Gray kicks his training into high gear and begins swimming towards his rescue point with Allye Martin in tow hoping they both make it out alive.
Allye thought her life was over when she was snatched off the streets of San Francisco, but when a huge man appeared on the boat she was being held captive on and then proceeded to throw her into the ocean...well, at least she wouldn't die on the boat. She'd soon come to learn the huge man, Gray, was there to rescue her and although she wasn't sure she'd live, she somehow trusted Gray when he said he make sure she made it out of the ocean alive.
Life or death situations can heighten your senses, is that what Gray and Allye feel for one another as they come down from the rescue? Gray has a job to do and doesn't have time to think about what happened, but he also can't stop thinking about the woman he rescued. Allye has a life she needs to return to, but she also can't stop thinking about the man who pulled her from the sea. Can there be a future for the two or should they both move on?
