I enjoyed this story immensely! What's not to like? We have an explosive expert, Sgt. Nathan Ryker, who's struggling with PTSD and a level headed, reliable & grounded girl, Rachel Hart, who has a need to fix things. And, how they first got together was explosive! Beyond words HOT! Steamy. Sizzling.Rachel's done with relationships. No to commitment & heartache. And yes to sex with no attachments. She needed a one night stand. A hookup. For the first time, she's going to forget inhibitions & just go for what she wanted. A mysterious stranger, Nathan. And a night of steamy, unbelievable sex with him. After all, she won't be seeing him after one night."I don't want complicated. I don't want forever. I just want simple. No strings."Nathan Ryker's in LA as a favor to a friend. He's at an airport bar, beyond frustrated cause the person who was supposed to pick him up didn't show. A pretty girl sat beside him and after awhile, things got pretty interesting."Jesus, that man really f**ks. He's focused, absorbed, almost...""Obsessed?" Rubi supplied in the same hushed tone."Totally. It's enthralling. All encompassing. Like nothing else exists." She sighed, letting the delicious memory wash through her. "Un-f**cking-forgettable."* fans self*When Rachel discovered Nathan deceived her about his identity, she was livid. She does not get involved with the people she works with & he was, somehow, part of Renegade for the next few weeks. But then he gave her an offer that's hard to resist. Should she go for it? It's what she's looking for, after all."I'm offering you exactly what you want. No-strings, no-shame, no-limits, no-complications, wicked-good sex. Complete with a agreed-upon end date, a vow of secrecy, and an eight-thousand-mile anti-stalking guarantee when it's over."Okaaayyyy.This wasn't just all steam. It had heart, feelings & emotions. I loved the damaged & tortured soul in Ryker. I felt for him. [spoilers removed]Rachel was one of the best heroines there is. She's strong, loyal, feisty and compassionate. She was perfect for Nathan!Why not a 5? I felt the ending was rushed & lacking. Don't get me wrong, I loved Nathan & Rachel's story. I just wanted more. Thought they deserved more, especially Rachel. Or I'm just being greedy.This series is fast becoming a favourite! I can't wait for the next one!
