Book Review: Special Forces: Operation Alpha: Redemption for Misty (Kindle Worlds Novella) (Pierce S
Synopsis:
A year ago Misty was kidnapped and left for dead in the floor of a dirty garage, when she was saved by the guys from Pierce Security. Since then, she’s been living with her brother to save money, while working to build up business for her coffee shop that donates proceeds to victims of violent crimes against women. But it’s a struggle. When her over protective brother goes out of town, he leaves his Army buddy Chris, AKA, Casanova to stay with her, with explicit instructions to just keep her safe, not to get into her panties. But his heart has other plans. Chris has been in love with Misty’s picture for years. With the strong need to protect also comes overwhelming feelings of desire. But things change when the mysterious ‘Ghost’, a regular at her shop, comes in hinting about some unseen danger. Chris and Misty learn promises are meant to be broken and consequences are worth accepting when danger threatens what you love the most.
My Thoughts:
Oh my goodness! Another great read from Anne Conley. I like how the story is its own with history from previous tidbits from the previous books tossed in. It helps the book to flow without thinking you are missing something. It is a standalone, so you do not have to read the other books to understand this one. However, reading the first books are highly encouraged as they are good books as well.
This book shows how Misty, having gone through a terrible time that could have made her like a meek little mouse afraid of her own shadows, can overcome her circumstances and become a stronger person because of it. I really thought that the way she stood up for herself was a good twist to the story. It really shows that you don’t have to let things control you, you can determine your ultimate path.
I thought Chris’ character was done really well. He was real and connectable. I liked how the history was thrown in to show how he had cared for Misty for a long time. This helped add to the battle he faced within to not get involved especially since it is his best friend’s sister. The way that he fights his inner battles and finally gives in really added to the story.
I thought the way Ghost popping in and out in various places throughout added to the story and makes you want to know his story.
A really good story, well worth the money to read. If you like romance with as little military and some suspense thrown in, then this book is for you!
